Coming to Europe

Visa and Entry conditionshttps://euraxess.ec.europa.eu/information/coming-europe?utm_source=chatgpt.comRegardless of your nationality or career stage—PhD student, postdoctoral, established, or leading researcher—a wide range of resources and support measures are in place to ensure that your relocation goes as smoothly as possible.EURAXESS offers the support and opportunities you need to advance your career in Europe.Discover the practicalities of coming to Europe, including visa and entry conditions, residence permits, hosting, and EU and national regulations.If you are a researcher from outside the EU considering a move to Europe, it’s important to know that both the European Union and its Member States are working to make the process clearer and easier. Immigration policy in the EU is a shared competence, meaning that both the European Union and its Member States have the authority to legislate and adopt legally binding acts in this area. In recent years, EU Member States have significantly expanded tailored visa and residence initiatives to attract global research talent. These programs are designed to cut red tape, accelerate entry procedures, and offer long-term security for researchers.The EU Immigration Portal is an online resource that provides up-to-date, practical information on both EU-wide and national immigration rules, tailored to different types of professionals, including researchers. It offers detailed, country specific guidance on admission requirements, necessary documents, and application procedures. Available in multiple languages, the portal serves as a comprehensive and user friendly guide for navigating the immigration process across the EU.In addition, for guidance tailored to the specific country you’re moving to, visit the EURAXESS national information page to explore natinoal entry conditions, visa procedures, and support services.EU Immigration Portal EURAXESS Country InformationStudents and Researchers DirectiveThe Directive (EU) 2016/801 addresses the conditions of entry and residence of third-country nationals, for the purposes of research, studies, training, voluntary service, pupil exchange schemes or educational projects and au pairing. A researcher is defined as: a “third-country national holding a doctoral degree or an appropriate higher education qualification which gives access to doctoral programmes, and who is selected by a research organisation for carrying out a research activity for which the above-mentioned qualification is normally required.”The Directive applies to researchers intending to stay in Europe for more than three months. For those coming for less than three months, rules on short-term visas apply. This directive sets clearer, more consistent and transparent rules, such as: Procedural guarantees: The 90-day time limit for Member States' authorities to decide on an application will make the process more straightforward and transparent.Stay after the research is completed: Researchers will be allowed to remain for up to 9 months in their Member State of residence after finalisation of their research to identify job opportunities or set up a business. This will not amount to an automatic right to work: the researcher who finds a job will have to apply for a work and residence permit.Simpler and more flexible mobility rules: will increase the possibility for researchers to move within the EU for their projects. Family members of researchers will also be granted mobility rights.The short-term mobility period should cover stays in second Member States for a maximum of 180 days in any 360-day period. The long-term mobility period should cover stays in one or several second Member States for more than 180 days.Those rules apply to researchers in both public and private organisations. Individual European countries do not have identical rules of procedure, they need to be verified for each country. While most EU member states are participating in Directive (EU) 2016/801, Ireland and Denmark have opted out and are not bound by its provisions.About the DirectiveEU Blue CardAn EU Blue Card gives highly-qualified workers from outside the EU the opportunity to live and work in an EU Member State, provided they hold the necessary higher professional qualifications, or, where appropriate, higher professional skills, and an employment contract or a binding job offer for at least six months with a salary at least equal to, but no higher than 1.6 times, the average gross national annual salary of the country concerned. . The EU Blue Card applies in 25 of the 27 EU Member States. It does not apply in Denmark and IrelandMore information on the key provisions of the new EU Blue Card Directive can be found in the Summary of EU legislation – EU Blue Card(for example eligibility conditions, length of validity, related rights)EU Blue CardWhat is a hosting agreement?The “hosting agreement” is an agreement signed by a public or private research organisation in the Member State and the researchers, through which they both agree to undertake a research project. The research organisation can only sign a hosting agreement with a researcher if there are funds available for the research and they are satisfied with the researcher's qualifications and skills. It must include some information, notably the title or purpose of the research activity and the start and end date of the activity or its estimated duration. Moving between European countriesOnce granted the residence permit or long-stay visa, a researcher may carry out their research not only in the country of their residence permit/long-stay visa, but also in other EU Member States under specific conditions. When a researcher moves to another EU Member State, the procedure to follow varies based on the destination country and the duration of their stay: Short-Term Mobility (Up to 6 Months) Researchers planning to conduct research in another EU Member State for up to 6 months may need to submit specific documents to the national authorities. Once submitted, they can relocate immediately. Long-Term Mobility (More than 6 Months) For stays exceeding 6 months, researchers must follow country-specific procedures. Some Member States require the same process as short-term stays, while others mandate a long-term mobility permit application.Connect with EURAXESS WorldwideWould you like to link up with EURAXESS representatives outside Europe before making the move? EURAXESS Worldwide has regional hubs in Africa, ASEAN, Latin America and the Caribbean, China, India, Japan, Korea, and North America.

Skilled and Mobile: Survey Evidence of AI Researchers' Immigration Preferenceshttps://arxiv.org/abs/2104.07237?utm_source=chatgpt.comRemco Zwetsloot, Baobao Zhang, Noemi Dreksler, Lauren Kahn, Markus Anderljung, Allan Dafoe, Michael C. HorowitzLast revised 5 May 2021Countries, companies, and universities are increasingly competing over top-tier artificial intelligence (AI) researchers. Where are these researchers likely to immigrate and what affects their immigration decisions? We conducted a survey (n=524) of the immigration preferences and motivations of researchers that had papers accepted at one of two prestigious AI conferences: the Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS) and the International Conference on Machine Learning (ICML). We find that the U.S. is the most popular destination for AI researchers, followed by the U.K., Canada, Switzerland, and France. A country's professional opportunities stood out as the most common factor that influences immigration decisions of AI researchers, followed by lifestyle and culture, the political climate, and personal relations. The destination country's immigration policies were important to just under half of the researchers surveyed, while around a quarter noted current immigration difficulties to be a deciding factor. Visa and immigration difficulties were perceived to be a particular impediment to conducting AI research in the U.S., the U.K., and Canada. Implications of the findings for the future of AI talent policies and governance are discussed.Subjects:Computers and Society (cs.CY)ACM classes:K.7.4Cite as:arXiv:2104.07237 [cs.CY] (or arXiv:2104.07237v2 [cs.CY] for this version) https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2104.07237Focus to learn moreRelated DOI:https://doi.org/10.1145/3461702.3462617

IEEE Submission and Peer Review PoliciesIEEE Clarifies Guidelines on the Responsible Use of AI in Scholarly Publishinghttps://journals.ieeeauthorcenter.ieee.org/become-an-ieee-journal-author/publishing-ethics/guidelines-and-policies/submission-and-peer-review-policies/#ai-generated-contentIEEE has reaffirmed its commitment to research integrity and transparency by issuing clear guidelines on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the preparation and submission of scholarly manuscripts. These policies ensure that innovation in AI-assisted research and writing is balanced with ethical responsibility and the preservation of trust in the peer-review process.Under IEEE’s submission and peer-review policies, authors are permitted to use AI-generated content—including text, figures, images, and code—provided that such use is explicitly and transparently disclosed. Authors must identify the AI tools used, specify the sections of the manuscript affected, and describe the nature of the AI contribution in the Acknowledgments section. Importantly, AI systems cannot be listed as authors, and full accountability for the accuracy, originality, and integrity of the work remains solely with the human authors.IEEE emphasizes that AI tools may assist researchers, but they do not replace scholarly judgment or ethical responsibility. Authors are expected to carefully review all AI-generated material to ensure correctness, proper attribution, and compliance with publication standards. The undisclosed or misleading use of AI-generated content may be treated as a breach of publishing ethics.In parallel, IEEE maintains strict confidentiality standards in the peer-review process. Reviewers are prohibited from using public AI tools to analyze submitted manuscripts, as doing so could compromise confidential content.

Top 1% Journal 2025https://www.scopus.com/pages/ai?temporary-convo=false&conversationId=075ba998-a2ff-4f34-b1cf-21ed22d49c70To identify the top 1% journals in 2025, we can look at various metrics and rankings that are commonly used to evaluate journal quality and impact. These include the Impact Factor (IF), SCImago Journal Rank (SJR), and other bibliometric indicators.Key Metrics and RankingsImpact Factor (IF)The Impact Factor is a measure reflecting the yearly average number of citations to recent articles published in a journal. For example, in the field of 'Nutrition and Dietetics', journals with an IF ≥ 6.0 were analyzed, showing significant citation counts and impact 1.SCImago Journal Rank (SJR)SJR ranks journals into four quartiles (Q1–Q4) based on their impact and quality. Journals in the top quartile (Q1) are considered to be of the highest quality. For instance, the SCImago Journal Rank database is used to evaluate journal prestige in various fields, such as environmental engineering and orthopedics 2 3 4.Journal Article Influence Index (JAII)The JAII is another metric used to evaluate the influence of academic journals. For example, the 2022 JAII was used to rank core journals in orthopedics and gastroenterology, highlighting the highest and lowest influence scores 5 6.Examples of High-Impact JournalsPreventing Chronic Disease (PCD)PCD saw a significant increase in its impact factor, reaching 4.354, and was ranked in the top 10% of more than 27,000 journals evaluated by Scimago in 2021 7.Top Intensive Care JournalsA bibliometric analysis of the top 10 intensive care journals with the highest 2022 Impact Factors showed a strong representation of high-impact research from high-income countries 8.Critical Care Nursing JournalsThe top critical care nursing journals, such as Intensive and Critical Care Nursing (ICCN) and Nursing in Critical Care (NICC), were analyzed for their top-cited papers, indicating significant contributions to the field 9.Trends and ObservationsGeographic and Publisher InfluenceWestern countries and private publishers dominate the top-tier journals in many fields. For example, the United Kingdom, the United States, and the Netherlands house a significant proportion of top journals in environmental engineering 3.Gender DisparitiesDespite improvements, gender disparities in authorship persist in top medical research journals, with women underrepresented as first and senior authors 10.Open Access vs. Subscription ModelsOpen access articles tend to receive more citations compared to subscription-based articles, as seen in critical care nursing journals 9.ConclusionTo be considered in the top 1% of journals in 2025, a journal would likely need to have a high Impact Factor, be ranked in the top quartile (Q1) by SCImago, and demonstrate significant influence through metrics like the JAII. Journals such as PCD, top intensive care journals, and critical care nursing journals exemplify the characteristics of high-impact publications. Additionally, trends such as geographic dominance, gender disparities, and the impact of open access publishing are important factors influencing journal rankings and impact.
