About the Organization

The International Atomic Energy Agency is the world's central intergovernmental forum for scientific and technical cooperation in the nuclear field. It works for the safe, secure and peaceful uses of nuclear science and technology, contributing to international peace and security and the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals.

About the Fellowship

Launched in 2020 by  IAEA Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi, the Marie Sklodowska-Curie Fellowship Programme (MSCFP) has since received over 3000 applications from women passionate about pursuing careers in the nuclear field. The programme is named after the pioneering physicist and two-time Nobel laureate Marie Sklodowska-Curie, and offers support to women from all IAEA member countries, addressing the growing need for a more inclusive nuclear workforce.

To date, the MSCFP has supported 760 women from 129 countries studying a diverse range of nuclear topics in 76 countries around the world.

“The MSCFP was a turning point in my career. I gained international work experience and expanded my expertise in radiopharmacy and radiotherapy,” said Gabryele Moreira, an MSCFP fellow from Brazil. “Through my MSCFP internship at the Camargo Cancer Center, I supported the development of new applicators for brachytherapy, resulting in a direct impact on reducing health disparities in Brazil.”

Like Moreira, other interns have also found future career paths. Most are pursuing master’s degrees in either nuclear science and its applications (which includes healthcare) or nuclear energy, with others  focusing on nuclear safety, nuclear security, safeguards and non-proliferation and nuclear law.
