Eligibility
Covers: 36 months of principal-investigator salary at the senior postdoc rate plus EUR 45,000 project costs, increasing to EUR 75,000 on a justified request. These amounts are project costs, not the total award.
The project must be hosted at an Austrian research institution. Prior residence or research in Austria is not required.
Postdoctoral researchers normally within five years of their doctorate, with an Austrian research host and a mentor. Career-break provisions apply. Near-completion doctoral candidates may apply if the doctorate is completed during review and before the project starts.
