KI SÖS Junior Faculty announces Start-up Collaboration Grant
The Junior Faculty at KI SÖS strives to support junior researchers and encourage interdisciplinary collaborations. Therefore, the Junior Faculty at KI SÖS is announcing a Start-up Collaboration Grant.
The purpose of the grant is to support junior researchers at KI SÖS to establish an independent, interdisciplinary collaboration with a co-applicant researcher from outside the own research group, with a focus on innovation and excellence.
"The funding can, for example, be used to start a project, generate preliminary data for a grant application, develop a new method, or test the feasibility of clinical material", says Ellen Vercalsteren, post doc and in the steering group of the Junior Faculty at KI SÖS.
The main applicant of the grant should be a junior researcher at KI SÖS, with a co-applicant from another research group. The grant period is July 1st 2026 to June 30rd 2027, and the deadline for the application is April 1st 2026. Details on the call are found in the document "Start-up Collaboration Grant KI SOS JF".
"This is the first time KI SÖS Junior Faculty can announce this Start-up Collaboration Grant, with support from KI SÖS Department Board. We hope that junior researchers at KI SÖS will take the opportunity to show the width and depth of all important research in the pipeline at our department", says Ellen Vercalsteren.
