      Dear Mr Talla,
      Thanks for your message. I can’t advise you to apply for this programme because you are almost at the end of you PhD project. However, I strongly advise you to apply for a postdoc position in the same institutes. Just send a letter of motivation plus your cv. Do not forget to write some few lines about your research project and what you intend to in the institute in case your application is given a positive reply. We will be publishing in the upcoming weeks info about some postdoc fellowship programmes in Europe. Let’s keep in touch.
      With kind regards
