COFUND: What happens if a researcher’s contract ends before the end of the initial due date?

The MSCA Choose Europe for Science beneficiary cannot be held responsible if a fellow wants to end the employment contract before the actual due date. For example, a Choose Europe for Science fellowship that is terminated in order to commence an ERC Starting Grant following support from the host organisation will not be penalised. Please note that for all cases of early termination of a fellowship, REA will conduct checks to confirm that the beneficiary took all measures to implement the principles set out in the European Charter for Researchers.
