Funds postdoctoral researchers in the life sciences for up to two years in a host lab abroad, in Europe and worldwide. The fellowship includes a salary or stipend, a relocation allowance and support for fellows with children.
Who can apply
Applicants must hold a doctorate by the start of the fellowship (earned within two years before submission if already awarded) and have at least one first-author peer-reviewed paper or qualifying reviewed preprint. The move must be between countries, and not to the country of the PhD or back to the PhD lab.
Deadline
January 22, 2027: Applications are accepted throughout the year; the next cutoff (hard deadline) is Friday 22 January 2027 at 14:00 CET. From the Autumn 2027 round, each researcher may submit only one proposal and re-applications are no longer allowed.
