Priority is given to researchers who have obtained their doctorate within the past seven years, taking into account deductible time for parental leave. Research grants of 250,000 SEK and above are awarded and disbursed to the grant administrator (institution), with up to 25% permitted for overhead costs. Scholarships of up to 250,000 SEK may be awarded and paid directly to the applicant. Funding may be sought for purposes such as project operating costs, expenses for international stays, or conference travel where own research results are presented. The program has 1,227,000 Swedish kronor available for 2025.
