Visiting Professorships

Grants for Danish biomedical research groups to host foreign researchers at professor level in Denmark for two to six months, encouraging collaboration between senior scientists in Denmark and international peers. Research should be within basic or clinical neuroscience or science with clear relevance to or potential benefit for neuroscience, in its broadest sense. Up to DKK 500,000 per grant covers documented visit expenses such as travel, accommodation, running costs and technical support, but not the visiting professor’s salary. Applications are processed within six weeks except during holiday periods.

Biomedical research leaders (full or associate professors) at Danish non-commercial research institutions who plan to invite an international colleague at professor level to Denmark. The visit must benefit both the Danish group and the guest, and the grant is managed by a Danish non-commercial research institution.
