Seal of Excellence (Sorbonne Université)

The Seal of Excellence programme at Sorbonne Université provided funded postdoctoral contracts to researchers whose Marie Skłodowska‑Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship proposals scored at least 85/100 but were not funded by EU grants. The scheme offered employment contracts of 24 months in Sorbonne Université laboratories and included salary and a running-costs envelope for the fellowship. It ran as part of Sorbonne Université's MSCA strategy between 2023 and 2025 and included calls for expressions of interest, tailored support and a training Master Class.
