An overview of the projects funded from the funding line “Else Kröner Excellence Fellowships” can be found here.

Scientific work is equally linked to university facilities for physicians facing special challenges and problems. One of these lies in the fact that the demands posed by clinical work in the course of a clinical career do not allow for any interrelated continuous period of research in order to focus on a scientific research project.

The Else Kröner-Fresenius-Stiftung foundation regularly awards six individual fellowships within the entire field of medicine – each for a term of two years – to physicians following conclusion of their advanced training to become specialists. The fellowship is endowed with a total of EUR 350,000 and is primarily used to finance the own position (gross annual salary) during the leave of absence. Applicants must be able to produce evidence of outstanding research achievements and be clinically active in a position of responsibility. Six fellowships are awarded nationwide. Interested physicians are requested to personally apply.

Please always note our current calls for proposals for this funding line. You will find them on the website under "Current Topics/Call for Poposals".
