The call for the Junior Investigator Grant 2025 - closed

Are you an early-career researcher who obtained a PhD less than five years ago? These grants provide the opportunity to develop your scientific ideas further over three years and establish your own research niche. Longfonds aims to provide two personal Junior Investigator Grants of up to €250,000 for research that aligns with the objectives of one of these grants.

• One for a promising research proposal in the field of prevention or early diagnosis – the Rutgers Kickstart Grant
• One for a proposal that aligns with the objectives of the Center for Animal-Free Biomedical Translation (CPBT) – the CPBT Grant

CPBT Grant - closed

The CPBT is a national center dedicated to valorizing and promoting animal-free innovations and expertise. It aims to create new business opportunities for animal-free technologies and biomedical translation. One of the grants is specifically allocated to research that aligns with the objectives of the CPBT - Asthma & COPD Transition Project.

The goal of the Asthma & COPD Transition Project is to develop true-to-life culture models with improved predictability and reproducibility. This ensures more reliable, human-relevant results, contributing to the reduction and replacement of animal testing in research. Ultimately, the aim is to personalize this approach for each patient, allowing tailor-made treatments to be simulated and tested for effectiveness within a culture model.
