Support programmes
With our financial resources we support individual researchers and research teams with personal fellowships and project funding.
All about support programmes
The senior postdoctoral fellowship aims to support researchers who have completed their PhD a few years ago to further specialize in their research discipline. With the help of this fellowship, a postdoctoral researcher can develop their own research line while simultaneously acquiring additional academic skills through training and mobility, among other means. In this way, the FWO aims to provide young researchers with optimal opportunities to build an independent international research career, either within an academic context or beyond.
The FWO collaborates with the Plantentuin Meise, VITO and Flanders Hydraulics for the funding of additional postdoctoral fellowships.
The Suzanne Duchesne Fund is administered by the King Baudouin Foundation and provides €123,000 for the 2025 call in the form of special bench fees for selected postdoctoral researchers in oncology (Med4 panel).
You need to submit your application via the online application (addressed to a FWO expert panel). The deadline is 2 December 2024 at 5pm.
