European Young Investigators (EURYI) Award

The European Young Investigators (EURYI) Awards are an initiative of 19 European Union Research Organisations from 17 countries, thus contributing to the creation of the European Research Area. The aim of the EURYI Awards is to enable and encourage outstanding young researchers from all over the world to work in an European environment for the benefit of the development of European science and for building up the next generation of leading European researchers.

The scheme is open to researchers from anywhere in the world between 2 and up to 10 years after obtaining the doctorate. Applicants should have an excellent track record with the potential to become world class leaders in their respective field of research. Applications should be submitted through one of the participating organisations (for the Netherlands: NWO).

Submission deadline for applications to NWO is 15 December 2003. For more information, see http://www.nwo.nl/subsidiewijzer.nsf/pages/NWOP_5QTJZA?Opendocument&su=no
