11/09/2022   News


The Ministry of Culture and Science of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia (MKW) invites applications for the program “Stammzell-InTraNetz.NRW” with a submission date of 09.01.2023. An annual call for proposals is intended in the future.

This program (https://www.ptj.de/projektfoerderung/stammzell-intranetz-nrw) is intended to fund interdisciplinary projects from different disciplines with a small funding volume of €500 to €12,000. These can be carried out as individual projects or collaborative projects with a duration of up to one year and should be supported by a strong translational idea.

Funding could cover, for example, research projects in the fields of biomedicine, biophysics and biochemistry, or materials science, as well as ethical, legal or social science projects with concrete objectives in stem cell research. Guest visits and networking conferences are also eligible for funding.

The application procedure consists of two stages. After a submission of project outlines until 09.01.2023, 16:00h via the online tool (https://stammzell-intranetz-nrw.ptj.de/aufruf), a request for proposal submission will be sent by the project executing organization.
