About
The Royal Physiographic Society in Lund is an academy for natural sciences, medicine, and technology, founded on December 2, 1772. The society's mission is to promote sciences within these areas by providing grants for research and travel, awarding medals and prizes, organizing symposia and lectures, and supporting fundamental research in mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, and technology, including applications in climate research, energy efficiency, and development of new environmentally friendly materials.
Funding Opportunities
Henry och Gerda Dunkers donation
The Henry och Gerda Dunkers donation provides travel grants to members of the Royal Physiographic Society in Lund. The grants support members' travel to scientific congresses, symposia, or for scientific studies or fieldwork abroad. Funds from this donation can be applied for three times per year, with application deadlines on March 28, September 25, and November 28. Applications are valid for one year forward from the decision date. Grants are only awarded to Swedish members of the Society, as well as foreign members active in Sweden. The grants do not cover travel to nearby Nordic destinations or for trips that have already been undertaken.
Gästföreläsarfonden
Gästföreläsarfonden provides grants to Swedish members of the Royal Physiographic Society in Lund to cover expenses related to invited foreign lecturers visiting Lund. The fund supports costs such as hotel accommodations and representation expenses. Travel costs can only be reimbursed to a limited extent and not for longer distances. Lecture fees cannot be provided. Applications must be registered and approved before the invited guest arrives in Lund. The grants are evaluated by the Society's permanent secretary and treasurer, who strives to distribute grants so that different parts of the Society's field of activity are served as far as possible.
Per-Eric och Ulla Schybergs stiftelse
The Per-Eric and Ulla Schyberg Foundation primarily aims to promote scientific research and education, preferably within the medical and biochemical fields. Applicants must be affiliated with Lund University. The foundation provides support for planned or ongoing research to a limited number of young researchers (maximum 10 years post-PhD) who are in a postdoctoral period and building their own independent research group. To stimulate diversity in research, groups not connected to large networks are prioritized. Applications should be in the range of 300,000 - 500,000 SEK. Awards may be granted to the same recipient for more than one year, but grants are decided on a one-year basis. Applications must contain a clear specification of what is being requested, a brief research program of approximately two A4 pages, and a curriculum vitae.
Yngre Forskare - Disputerad forskare (Travel Grants for Early Career Researchers - Postdoctoral Level)
The Royal Physiographic Society in Lund awards travel grants four times per year from the Younger Researchers Travel Fund. These grants are intended for early career researchers in natural sciences, medicine, and technology who hold postdoctoral positions at Lund University or SLU/Alnarp. The grants support attendance at symposia or congresses, study visits to research institutions, short-term fieldwork, or comparable travels. Applicants must have obtained their doctorate within the last 5 years (with allowances for illness and parental leave) and should not yet hold permanent positions as lecturers or professors. Active participation through presentations or poster sessions is required for conference attendance. The grants prioritize travel for learning new techniques not available in Lund and for international activities. Travel within the Nordic region must be to international conferences. The program does not support courses or retrospective reimbursement for already completed travels.
Yngre Forskare - Doktorand (Travel Grant for Younger Researchers - Doctoral Students)
The Royal Physiographic Society in Lund awards travel grants four times per year for doctoral students in natural sciences, medicine, and technology who are enrolled in doctoral programs at Lund University and SLU/Alnarp. The grants are intended for attending symposiums or congresses, study visits to research institutions, short-term fieldwork, or comparable travel. The grants are funded by the Younger Researchers' Travel Fund. Applicants must have at least one published or accepted article in a recognized scientific journal. Active participation in conferences through presentations or poster sessions is required for conference-related funding. The grants prioritize travel that provides access to new techniques and knowledge not available in Lund.
Nilsson-Ehle-donationernas resor
The Nilsson-Ehle donation travel grants support theoretical and applied heredity research. These special travel grants are exclusively available to researchers with a doctoral degree (or equivalent). The grants support participation in scientific meetings where active contribution is required through presentation or poster session, and an accepted abstract must be submitted. Applications must indicate other sources of financing. Applications for other types of travel must include motivation, description of the purpose, and cost proposal. A research program (1-2 pages) and short curriculum vitae must be attached to all applications. Recipients must submit a final report separately. Note: The two-year rule applies, meaning grants awarded the previous year that are not yet completed do not need to be reported when applying for a new grant. No funds will be awarded to applicants who have not satisfactorily reported previously received grants.
