Start-Up Funding Programme of the Medical Faculty (Bausteinprogramm)

The goal of this program for young scientists (called Bausteinprogramm in German) is to help them start their own research projects that enable them to achieve the previous work and publications that are usually required to successfully attract third-party funding.

The application deadline for the funding period 2025/27 has passed.

The next call for the funding period 2026/28 is planned in autumn 2025. We will inform in time here on our homepage.
