Workshop about seed funding in epidemiological research
A new call for seed funding from SFO EpiHealth is coming up. The workshop explains what seed funding for epidemiological research is and how the application process works. You will hear inspirational talks from previous awardees and learn how they have used EpiHealth seed funding to boost their next career step.
EpiHealth has made a strategic decision to support the next generation of epidemiological researchers through a call for seed funding. Seed funding is a smaller grant that is intended to cover the awardees’ working time while applying for a larger postdoc grant from a funding body (e.g., VR, Forte, Cancerfonden).
