Human Frontier Science Programme research grants

Human Frontier Science Programme (HFSP) research grants are provided for teams of scientists from different countries who wish to combine their expertise in innovative approaches to questions that could not be answered by individual laboratories. The Principal Applicant must be from one of the HFSP member countries, although collaborators may be from anywhere in the world.

Two types of grant are currently available: Young Investigators' Grants and Program Grants.

Young Investigators' Grants are awarded to teams of researchers, all of whom are within the first five years after obtaining an independent laboratory (e.g. Assistant Professor, Lecturer or equivalent).

Program Grants are awarded to teams of independent researchers at any stage of their careers. The research team is expected to develop new lines of research through the collaboration.

The deadline for letters of intent to both grants is 27 March 2014. For more information and to apply please visit the grant website.
