Mindsets about funding Funding - partners - project - people - idea Idea - project - people - partners - funding Arthur Bienenstock - people I have time for ten projects before retirement
Mindsets about funding What are the funding agencies within my field Collaborations and networks, connect to strong allies Dont wait for the funding - think about your projects as if they are ongoing, then search for funding to scale them up - Doing your projects without funding Be proactive
Get started Why should you be funded? (your ideas)
Swedish funding VR KKS RJ Vinnova Wallenberg STINT FORTE/FAS Socialfonden Regionalfonden Interreg NGOs & gov. agencies
Forms of funding Project grants Scholarships/personal grants Post-docs, etc. Development, structure money, internal as well as external
The writing process Put together a support team writers, readers, economy, admin Deal with underfinancing Read the call! Dont procrastinate Start with the problem Be clear about implementation
Solid projects from different funds Development projects Research money for writing and analysis Internal money for research environment, labs etc. Involving students etc.
why do projects get funded? your stories?
Show me the money! Importance of research leaders that attract funding for the more junior researchers Write applications every year, it is somewhat of a lottery It is always easier to get funding for great ideas than for good ideas It takes almost as much time to apply for 150 kkr as to apply for 15 Mkr Networks supporting each other in applications The ones who writes the most applications have the most success in funding themselves?
