Chemistry Europe Travel Grant

The Travel Exchange Grant, sponsored by Chemistry Europe, is an initiative fostering collaboration among promising young researchers and leading principal investigators in the European scientific community. This program aims to create impactful connections, facilitate laboratory visits, and promote knowledge exchange, while concurrently advancing Chemistry Europe's visibility among emerging talented chemists.

The primary aim of the Travel Exchange Grant is to create a platform for young, talented researchers to reinforce connections with top-level principal investigators outside their country. The program intends to provide an opportunity for participants to gain exposure to joint research projects by visiting laboratories at the forefront of scientific research. The initiative aims to equip the next generation with the skills and knowledge needed to excel in their scientific careers.

The Travel Exchange Grant in the amount of € 2000, will be awarded to selected applicants to visit a PI outside the applicants’ country for a period of minimum one month-maximum two months.

The Travel Exchange Grant program is open to applications from researchers who meet the following eligibility criteria:

Experience Level: Applicants must be researchers who are within 2 to 7 years from the date of obtaining their Ph.D. degree.

Publication Requirement: Applicants must have published at least one original article during the previous year as a reference author (first, corresponding, or last author) in one of the journals of the Chemistry Europe family.

Membership: Applicants must be members in good standing and regularly registered in one of Chemistry Europe's partner societies.

Application

The applicant should write a small proposal according to the format below describing the research activities he/she is going to perform in the hosting group, as a result of the collaboration that she/he wants to finalize with the visit and how it will influence his/her career and research activity.

The application form must be accompanied by the curriculum vitae of the applicant and an acceptance letter from the PI who is going to host the researcher, together with a list of significant publications of both the applicant and the PI.

The application deadline for the CE Travel Grant Program for Round 1 is extended to 30 November 2024.

The application must be sent to the German Chemical Society (please use the form below) and the selection process will be performed by a committee appointed by the GDCh. Each society will select three applicants per year.

The selected national applicants are the final candidates, and a committee nominated by Chemistry Europe will select the final awardees (one for each owner society) among them. The committee will include one representative of those Chemistry Europe national societies that do not belong to the year-round: France, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland.

Application Form

Please use the application form and send it by e-mail to Hannah Dreßen, Assistant to the Managing Director.
