The Vienna Science and Technology Fund Life Sciences 2017 Call “Chemical Biology” will open on the 14th of February 2017! The submission deadline for short proposals is 2pm on the 27th of April 2017.
Chemical Biology 2017 is the 10th project call within the Vienna Science and Technology Fund (WWTF) Life Sciences Programme. It invites researchers and scientists at universities and non-university research institutions in Vienna, including those moving to Vienna, who want to conduct a cutting-edge research project (2 to 4 years) at the chemistry-biology interface using small molecules to understand and manipulate biological systems with molecular precision. Proposals may include mechanistic studies, development of new chemical or biological tools/techniques, and applied molecular studies (biological and medical). Proposals do not have to include a translational aspect.
Proposals should bring together scientists from different scientific disciplines such as chemistry, biological and related biomedical disciplines to foster interactive partnerships across Vienna.
A total of € 4.5 million will be dedicated to this call. The funding range per project is € 200,000 to € 700,000.
This is a two-stage call: short proposals will have to be submitted online by 2pm on the 27th of April 2017, whereas full proposals may be submitted only upon invitation, by 2pm on the 18th of August 2017.
For more details kindly refer to the Call fiche, the Guide for Writing a Short Proposal as well as the WWTF Funding Guidelines.
Additionally, WWTF offers personal consultation on appointment.
