About this opportunity
The annual call for starting grants aims to support competence and career development for junior researchers and promote researcher mobility. The starting grant should promote establishment and independence in research by giving junior researchers the opportunity to lead their own defined project. The grant is open for research within Forte's three areas: health, working life, and welfare. The research supported must be of high scientific quality and have good potential to contribute to societal benefit in the short or long term. This funding opportunity is specifically designed to give young researchers financing for their own employment and enable them to independently conduct their research.
