Webinar on Human Frontier Science Program (HFSP) Grants

The Human Frontier Science Program (HFSP) promotes and funds international collaboration in basic research. Are you interested in conducting basic research focused on elucidating the sophisticated and complex mechanisms of living organisms? You can apply for funding from HFSP.

You do not need a background in biology to participate. Scientists from outside the traditional life sciences are encouraged to join, as such collaborations have opened new approaches to understanding the complex structures and regulatory networks that characterize living organisms, their evolution, and interactions.

In this webinar, you will receive information about the HFSP calls with deadlines in spring 2026, including Research Grants and Postdoctoral Fellowships, and you will have the opportunity to ask questions.

More information about HFSP and the calls can be found here.( Human Frontier Science Program (hfsp.org))

The webinar will be held in English
