HFSP Research Grants last for three years and on average, provide $400,000 USD per year. Our Program Grants are awarded to teams of two to four scientists, at any stage of their careers, who embark upon a new collaborative project. Our Early Career Grants require all team members to be within five years of obtaining an independent position and that it has been no more than 10 years since they earned their Ph.D.
“Excellence isn’t enough for us – we support research to explore whole new vistas in life science,” said HFSP Chief Scientific Officer Guntram Bauer. “HFSP research grants are among the most competitive and coveted awards, and this year’s awardees are impressive.”
Among all our awardees we seek scientists who form internationally, preferably intercontinentally, collaborative teams, who have not worked together before, and who are engaging in work for which they have no preliminary data. In this regard, HFSP fosters frontier research and science diplomacy.
