Human Frontier Science Program (HFSP): Research Grants in basic life science

HFSP supports international, preferably intercontinental, collaborations in basic life science research with emphasis on innovative and interdisciplinary approaches to fundamental investigations. Applications are invited for grants to support frontier approaches to understanding complex mechanisms of living organisms. Preliminary results are not required.

Young Investigators’ Grants are for teams of scientists within 5 years of establishing an independent laboratory and within 10 years of obtaining their PhDs.

Program Grants are for independent scientists at all stages of their careers, although the participation of younger scientists is especially encouraged. Grants provide 3 years' support for 2-4 member teams, with not more than one member from any one country. Funding: dependent upon team size, up to $450K/year. The principal applicant must be located in one of the member countries - Australia, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, Cyprus (EU part only), Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, India, Italy, Japan, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Ireland, Korea, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, UK and USA.
