Funding Opportunities
Innovation in Diabetes Research Grant
Diabetes Wellness Sverige invites the submission of innovative research projects for funding in the field of diabetes. The Foundation is actively seeking research projects in Sweden which in the long term can lead to improved treatment methods and potentially a working remedy for people living with diabetes. This award is aimed at early to mid-career researchers with no more than seven years of postdoctoral experience. Applications can be basic or clinical research in any area of diabetes including causes, complications, treatment and prevention. The grant provides a maximum award value of 200,000 SEK for research duration of up to 1 year, with a possible no-cost extension upon justification. Applications will only be considered from researchers working in Swedish research institutions.
Innovation in Diabetes Research Grants
Diabetes Wellness Sverige offers Innovation in Diabetes Research Grants, a one-year grant of up to SEK 200,000 for researchers at the beginning of their research careers who wish to start smaller research projects. The Foundation's research programme is designed to support young researchers as well as established scientists and institutions in their efforts to find a cure for diabetes. The Foundation is actively looking for research projects in Sweden and around the world that will eventually lead to improved treatment methods and, hopefully, a working cure for people with diabetes. The research strategy focuses on three main areas: prevention, complications and treatment of diabetes; causes of diabetes; and cures for diabetes. Priority is given to funding research that has a strong impact on both type 1 and type 2 diabetes, and projects that can ultimately benefit people with diabetes. This reflects the wishes of the donors and is the purpose of the Foundation. Each year, the Foundation invites researchers to apply for a research grant, which is then evaluated by the Advisory Committee and external experts. Research proposals are assessed according to relevance to the Foundation's aims and objectives, scientific merit, qualifications and experience of the researcher and the research institution, and the type of diabetes research. The ultimate goal is to find a working cure for people with diabetes.
