Call for Strategic research grants for young researchers 2021

    23 March 2021

    The Faculty of Medicine announces two (2) two-year research grants of 700 000 SEK/year. The call is open for all research areas within the faculty and aims to strengthen young researchers' scientific merits and competitiveness to attract external grants received in competition. Apply no later than 27 May.

    The grant (for the years 2022-2024) may be used for salaries (doctoral students, postdocs or other employees), infrastructures, for covering running costs or for you own salary.

    The target group for the call is young researchers whose doctoral degrees are not older than 27th of May in 2014, with competitive research projects that are yet to be financed by regional grants (financial means) from the university/ALF/TUA or Region Västerbotten (RV) and that are not one of the faculty's top researchers concerning ongoing, large external grants (as defined in this call).

    See further information in the section Eligible to apply. Anyone wishing to invoke deductible time must state this in Appendix A.
