Last week, the results of the Marie Skłodowska Curie Actions Individual Fellowships (MSCA-IF) were published. We are pround to announce that two excellent researchers who applied to visit our centre (Dr. Silvia Panizza and Doc. Olli Lagerspetz) were successful in getting the fellowships.
With two successful projects, our Centre will host the same number of Marie Curie fellows as, for example, the entire Masaryk University in Brno. We congratulate both our colleagues for their hard work in writing the applications.
In a new blog, Hugo Strandberg writes about repaying goodness with goodness. You can read it HERE.
I usually spend the summers in a small cottage in the Swedish countryside. In the room where I do my writing, there is a tapestry with a saying, as in many houses of this kind. Most people would probably not understand the saying, even if they knew Swedish, for the words used are outdated. But a rough translation would be: “Goodness should be paid back with goodness”. Since I spend much time in this room, and philosophical writing often requires that you take a short break and think about other things, this is a saying I return to now and then.
On February 11, our Centre organizes "Guilty Pleasures Festival" on Zoom.
