Objectiu de la convocatòria
Young investigators face a major challenge in the transition from postdoctoral/clinical fellow to their first tenured faculty position. It is hard to gain significant and truly independent funding at this career stage, yet such support is critical to advance up the academic ladder, especially in Europe. Action is needed now to avoid a generation gap that would severely compromise future European excellence in diabetes research.

The EFSD/Novo Nordisk Foundation Future Leaders Award Programme is intended to:
  • Identify outstanding clinical and basic scientists in European diabetes research at a critical stage in their career
  • Support them in their transition to a tenured academic appointment in diabetes research in Europe Foster their development into the leaders of tomorrow.
