Who can apply
Applications can be submitted by candidates who have obtained their PhD, irrespective of whether they hold tenured positions and of whether they come from the Netherlands or abroad. Candidates may only submit an application if they have obtained their PhD in the three years preceding the reference date of this round, 1 January 2023, or between 1 January 2023 and 5 September 2023. An extension to the above career‐dependent submission period may be possible under specific circumstances (see Call for Proposals).
Applicants may submit a full proposal only after receiving notification that the board of the relevant domain has taken a positive decision on the applicant's pre-proposal.
What for
The aim of the NWO Talent Programme is to provide creative space for adventurous, talented, pioneering researchers to do research of their choice, develop their own line of research and further develop their talent. The Veni target group consists of researchers at the stage of transitioning towards independence. The Veni grant can contribute to the researcher’s development in this area. The Veni grant is aimed at researchers with academic qualities that clearly exceed what is customary. The Veni grant is intended to finance academically innovative research and to give these researchers the opportunity to develop themselves as independent researchers.
What to request
For an application in this Call for proposals, a maximum of € 320,000 can be applied for. The maximum duration of the proposed project is three years. The duration of the project can be lengthened proportionally in case of part‐time research by a maximum of one year (from three to four years). If the proposed research is of shorter duration, the maximum amount will be reduced accordingly. It is also possible to carry out the research part‐time without extending the duration of the project. Apply only for funding that is essential for realising the project. A more detailed explanation of the budget modules can be found in the Call for proposals (section 7.1).
When
You can submit your full proposal via Mijn ZonMw portal until 30 January 2024, 2 PM CEST. The Mijn ZonMw online portal will be open for submissions on 30 November 2023.
