“In general, Euraxess Network was important for me in the process of finding research opportunities throughout Europe, although the most unique feature was the ability to compare these opportunities based on the job conditions offered by the employer. Professionally Luxembourg gave me the opportunity to research in my area of interest, which is a new field and requires teams with a very wide set of research competences.” What was your main...

"I was dealing with the difficulty of getting a suitable place to stay. We had exhausted all the possibilities we have been informed of. We have contacted different people and institutions we believed could be of some help to us, but we were unsuccessful. Then I got to know about the existence of the Euraxess-Luxembourg. Euraxess - Luxembourg (and particularly Ms Bárbara Daniel) were of extreme importance during my moving to Luxembourg. When I...

“I am extremely satisfied from my experience with Euraxess. First, I found the grant on the Euraxess webpage and I applied afterwards. Second, the guide on Luxembourg I was provided with was very helpful. The people working for Euraxess Luxembourg have always been very close to the researchers. Euraxess Luxembourg is doing a fine job assisting people like me and they are always available for consultation to deal with any problems that may arise...

I worked as a Marie Curie fellow in an EU funded program at the Pharmaceutical Research Institute in Warsaw, Poland, for three years (2013 September - 2016 August). During this period of my stay in Poland, I have received enormous support from the EURAXESS Centre in Warsaw. Monika from EURAXESS was helping me with the language problems to communicate with locals, to get residency permit, to file tax statements, she was really a great help during...

I went to Warsaw, Poland, in September 2013 to work at the Pharmaceutical Research Institute for almost 3 years as a PhD student in a European Marie Curie project (Initial Training Networks). From the beginning of my stay in Poland I was helped by EURAXESS with lots of different issues, including searching for accommodation, registering in a district office, applying for the residence permit, visas to UK and Ireland to go for conferences, and...

I came to Poland in July 2011 to work as a Marie Curie early stage researcher at the Faculty of Chemistry, Warsaw University of Technology. My stay was funded by Initial Training Networks (ITN) under the TOPBIO (TwO Photon absorbers for BIOmedical applications) project. My family were following me to come to Poland after six months of my living in Warsaw. We really enjoyed living there. My entire stay in Warsaw was going well, my colleagues and...

After completing my PhD in the Netherlands, I came to Warsaw, Poland, for a postdoc position at the Institute of Mathematics of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Since I am a European citizen, securing a visa for myself was not a problem. However, my fiancée is from the United States and it was much more of a fuss to obtain a residence permit for her, mainly because we are not yet married. We were in the process of going through all the paperwork...

I came to Poland with my family to join Prof. Piotr Sułkowski's group at the Faculty of Physics at the University of Warsaw. I was employed as a postdoctoral researcher for his project "Quantum Fields and Knot Homologies" funded by European Research Council, which aims to tackle fundamental questions that lie at the interface of quantum field theory, string theory and knot theory. As non-EU residents with no knowledge of Polish, we expected to...

The university professor Dr Adel A. (name has been changed for privacy) fled from Syria to Vienna and asked the OeAD / Euraxess for help in applying for a residence permit for researchers. He travelled to Austria with his wife and his little daughter with a visa. His underage son was still in Syria at that time. The OeAD / Euraxess supported the researcher and his family successfully by providing legal consultancy so that within a few hours...
