Dear Colleagues,

I'm interested in hosting postdocs and early career researchers with the European Commission Horizon 2020 Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Cofund program "Co-Funded Brain Circulation2 Scheme" (CoCirculation2): http://cocirc2.org.tr/. All fellowships must have an international component, and intersectoral and interdisciplinary elements in each project are highly encouraged.

All researchers holding a PhD degree are eligible for application. The support consists in:

1. Living allowance : €4.500 (before tax, excellent wage for Turkey)

2. Mobility allowance : €550

3. Research, Training and Networking costs : €800

4. Special Needs fund for eligible researchers, it is subject to SC approval : €400

Application deadline: October 30, 2020

Announcement of the results: February, 2021

Fellowship period: 2 years (cannot be shorter) (To start within 5 months from the notification. It can be extended 6 months in case of extraordinary circumstances (such as COVID19))

My research interests include Algorithmic and Structural Graph Theory, Computational Complexity, Combinatorial Optimization and Integer Programming. For further information, please visit my web page: http://www.ie.boun.edu.tr/~tinaz

I will be able to endorse max 2-3 applications since the preparation of a plausible application requires hard work from both sides. Here is the procedure I will follow:

1. Read carefully the Eligibility Requirements, Evaluation Criteria and the template Research Proposal Form (from http://cocirc2.org.tr/)
2. Send your CV and 1 page of possible research topics satisfying Cocirculation2 conditions by September 15, 2020
3. Announcement of the shortlists for zoom interview September 20, 2020
4. Interviews September 21-28, 2020
5. Preparation of the selected applications until the submission deadline October 30, 2020.

Please circulate this announcement. All interested can contact me directly for further information about Bogazici University, life in Istanbul and my research.

Have an excellent and healthy end of summer!
