Applying for Grants

By far, most of the Lundbeck Foundation's grants support concrete scientific projects with budgets of up to DKK 5 million. You can read more about what the Foundation supports in the section Funding Schemes

Applications within biomedicine are awarded three times a year, while applications within the natural sciences are awarded once a year. 

In exceptional cases it is possible to apply for up to DKK 10 million, however, detailed justification for this must be stated in the application.

The Foundation advertises special funding opportunities such as Fellowships at the website and in relevant professional publications. 

All applications are handled in full confidentiality.

Applications can only be made via the Foundation's electronic application system. Detailed instructions for the system are worth reading, and can be found here: Electronic application system.

Support from the Foundation for the post graduate education of nurses, midwives and therapeutic assistants are applied for and research candidates by these groups are applied for and awarded via the Danish University Hospitals' Centre for Nursing and Healthcare Research: www.ucsf.dk.

Deadlines for all types of applications are announced here: Current possibilities for support.
