EDGE is a Marie Sklodowska-Curie COFUND Action, led by Trinity College Dublin on behalf of 10 Irish academic institutions of excellence. EDGE awards fellowships to high-calibre post-doctoral researchers, who will relocate to Ireland to join expert supervisors in the ICT (networks, data and materials) field. In our 4th call we may award up to 17 Fellowships, each 18 / 24-months duration, depending on availability of the start date of the fellow.
