Application Details: |
Specific features of the Young Investigators? Program: Recognising the challenge of establishing an independent research group at an early stage of a career, a special consideration will take into account the level of interdisciplinarity in Young Investigator applications. Newly appointed investigators will be expected to propose projects with team members having distinct expertise and coming from different areas of the life sciences (if not from outside the life sciences). Projects from more established investigators will preferably involve collaboration with scientists from outside the life sciences, as in the Program Grants. The Review
Committee will be instructed to assess this when reviewing applications. You must first submit a ?letter of intent? to apply for a grant. The deadline for receipt of this letter,
which must be submitted via the HFSP extranet site, is March 31st 2010 for awards to
be made in March 2011. To submit you must register for a password by March 22nd 2010. You
will be notified early July 2010 whether you are invited to submit a full application, with a deadline
mid- September 2010. More details are provided in Program Guidelines on the HFSP websiteINDIRECT COSTS OF 10% MUST BE INCLUDED IN THE PROJECT BUDGET |
NOTE: Letters of Intent and Full Applications are to be processed through Research Development Services for institutional signatures, and are to be accompanied by a completed RDAF form (bearing applicant, Chair and Dean signatures). Requests for Institutional signatures should be received no less than 3 days prior to the posted Sponsor deadline. |
