Open call for AMS-Musculoskeletal Health (MSH) early career researchers and PhD candidates.

AMS-MSH opens a call for writing a grant proposal for PhD candidates in their last year and for postdoc researchers who finished their PhD no earlier than 2020.

A small grant from AMS-MSH will facilitate them to prepare and submit a grant proposal for a new, innovative research project fitting one of the five research themes of AMS-MSH (see the link below).

If funded, this new research project will:

  1. facilitate collaboration within and outside AMS,
  2. increase the output and impact of AMS-MSH research, and
  3. provide applicants with an opportunity to conduct research after their PhD.

A budget of €30.000 will be available to fund 3 researchers (maximum of € 10.000 per person). If granted, this funding should be used to extend a temporary contract of the researcher (or offer a new contract, in case of an already ended contract), for a short period that takes place entirely in 2024.

More information regarding the procedure, eligibility criteria and the assessment criteria can be found on the first page of the applicaton form (below).

The call is now open for submission, using the short application form below (2 pages - 16 items). Note the deadline: July 7, 2024 - 23:59 hrs.
