The Foundation for the promotion of science and research, initiated in 2004, supports talented young women with children. It aims to enable them to create the freedom and mobility required to further their scientific careers. The Foundation wishes to help prevent science from losing excellent talent. It is aimed specifically at graduate students in the fields of experimental natural sciences and medicine.

A monthly financial grant to pay for assistance in household chores and for additional childcare aims to relieve these young female scientists from household tasks thus freeing them to continue working at a high standard. We hope to contribute towards increasing the proportion of highly qualified women participating in high-level research in Germany.

Further information can be found at the link below. The next application deadline is 31 December 2011.
