“Supported fellows must be postdoctoral researchers at the date of the call deadline, i.e. in a possession of a doctoral degree.

At the call deadline, supported researchers must have a maximum of 8 years full-time equivalent experience in research, measured from the date of award of the doctoral degree.
Years of experience outside research and career breaks (e.g. due to parental leave*), will not count towards the amount of research experience.
(…)
Recruited researchers must comply with the following mobility rule: they must not have resided or carried out their main activity (work, studies, etc.) in the country of the beneficiary (for European Postdoctoral Fellowships), or the host organisation for the outgoing phase (for Global Postdoctoral Fellowships) for more than 12 months in the 36 months immediately before the call deadline.”
*Maternity: for each child born within the above mentioned eligibility period of 8 years, 18 months will be deducted from the experience in research unless the applicant can document a longer parental leave prior to the call deadline. Paternity: for each child born within the above mentioned eligibility period of 8 years, the documented time of parental leave taken until the call deadline will be deducted from the experience in research.
