Research Fields
- The research fields central in the proposed project could be within (but not limited to): Molecular biology, cell biology, bioinformatics, modelling of biological systems, enzymology, genetics, microbiology, animal models, pharmacology, experimental physiology, biophysics, biochemistry, biology, and biostatistics etc. The supported research will typically be carried out in animals, model systems, cellular or subcellular systems, or in silico.
Funding Information

Eligibility Criteria
- Who can apply?
- Principal investigators anchored in Denmark are eligible to apply. I.e. experienced independent researchers who have already established their own line of research or researchers that are in the process of establishing themselves as independent researchers. As this grant cannot cover salary of the grantee, the applicant must be guaranteed his or her own salary for the entire applied project period. Applications from Ph.D. students and postdocs will not be taken into consideration.
- Where must the research primarily take place?
- The research activities applied for must be anchored at a university, hospital, or other non-profit research institution in Denmark.
- What types of projects can be supported?
- The application must describe a clearly defined research project with an appropriate budget. The project can be an independent project, delimited project or a clearly defined part of a larger, running project. In the latter case, the large project must be briefly described.
Language
- The application and any additional uploads must be written in English.
