Funding opportunities for postdoc or PhD work

There are possibilities of securing your own funding for individual postdoc or PhD projects. If you would like to carry out your own project in our team, please first check out available funding schemes.

When contacting us, please send along at least a one page summary of your research idea, your CV, a time schedule and a list of potential funding schemes that you would like to apply to.

You may imagine that we receive more enquiries of students than we can accomodate, and it is thus important to find out whether your research fits in our team and ongoing research projects and whether it would be suitable for the envisioned funding scheme.
