15 February 2025: "Impulse Grants for Research Pojects"
Call of the Central Research Development Fund (CRDF)
Doctoral researchers can apply for support of activities that clearly contribute an added value within the context of their PhD, such as participation in summer schools, research sojourns at renowned institutions, additional experiments, interdisciplinary projects or international cooperations.
Postdocs can apply for supplementary funding of research projects in order to prepare applications for third-party funding, to set up conferences in Bremen or to undertake interdisciplinary research. As an added incentive for researchers, grants are available in particular for the preparation of first applications for DFG funding as well as cooperations with scientists at the University of Oldenburg.
