CfA: The Jung Career Advancement Award 2025 for Medical Professionals
The Jung Career Advancement Award comprises a grant of 210,000 euros. The funds are intended to support a research project over a three-year period. The funds are to be used in accordance with the guidelines of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG). The funds are disbursed in two equal installments; the provision of the second half is contingent on the positive review of an interim report by the Scientific Advisory Board. A request for payment of the second half of the amount can be made 18 months after the start of the project at the earliest, and 5 years at the latest.
The call is addressed to medical professionals in residence training, who have completed at least two years of scientific research (preferably abroad), have a documented record of scientific accomplishment, and who return to Germany to complete their residency training. The work should be carried out at a German academic hospital. When taking up the award, the applicant should be relieved of clinical duties for at least one year before resuming additional clinical training, with intermittent protected time for a further 2 years combined.
The application for the Jung Career Advancement Award is open until August 31, 2025
