Daimler and Benz Foundation: 2027 Scholarship program for the promotion of postdocs and junior professors
The Foundation's program aims to strengthen the autonomy of early‑career researchers and support post‑doctoral scholars who have achieved research independence but have not yet secured a permanent position. It is open to candidates from all fields; humanities, social and cultural sciences, natural and engineering sciences, medicine, and life sciences; and places no restrictions on research topics.
Each fellowship provides € 50,000 for two years. Recipients may spend the money on research trips, conference participation or organization, temporary research assistants, computers, lab equipment, and special chemicals – but not on personal living expenses. Applications may be submitted by 30 September 2026 here.
