๐Ÿš€ Jarek awarded his first Horizon Europe ERA Fellowship! ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ๐ŸŽ“

Weโ€™re thrilled to announce that Jarek has received a Horizon Europe ERA Talents Postdoctoral Fellowship! ๐ŸŒŸ This came as a surprise twist after he submitted a MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowship proposal, which, while not funded, still passed all threshold points. For a first European-level application, thatโ€™s already a huge win! ๐Ÿ’ช

But hereโ€™s the plot twist: ๐Ÿ’ก his application was automatically moved to the ERA Talents scheme. We had already lost hopeโ€ฆ

โ€ฆUntil last week, out of the blue, we received a notification from the European Commission:

โ€œCongratulations. Your proposal has reached the stage of Grant Agreement preparation.โ€

Cue the celebration! ๐ŸŽŠ๐Ÿฅณ๐ŸŽŠ๐Ÿฅณ๐ŸŽŠ๐Ÿฅณ

โœˆ๏ธ Two-year adventure in Vilnius

Starting early next year, Jarek will begin a two-year research stay at Vilnius University ๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡น. There, heโ€™ll:

  • ๐Ÿ”ฌ Study the impact of small molecules on amyloid polymorphism
  • ๐Ÿงฉ Apply the findings to expand the AmyloGraph database
  • ๐Ÿค Collaborate closely with top researchers in the field

This project promises to push forward our understanding of amyloid structures and interactions and feed valuable insights into our growing infrastructure!


Weโ€™re incredibly proud of Jarek for this achievement and perseverance. From nearly missing out to scoring an amazing opportunity, this grant will open new doors for international collaboration and career development!
