Extended application period for Erik and Edith Fernström

Erik and Edith Fernström Foundation invites applications for scholarships to conduct medical research.

The application period has been extended to February 3, 2026, at 2:00 p.m.

The scholarships will be awarded for research at top foreign research institutions. The primary purpose is to support researchers whose research objectives cannot be achieved at corresponding Swedish institutions, but that can be expected to generate results of value for ongoing medical research in Sweden.

Researchers, postdocs and doctoral students at Karolinska Institutet are eligible to apply for a scholarship. Exchanges with Karolinska Institutet’s partner universities and institutions are given a certain degree of priority.
