Call: Internationalization Grants for BIH Charité (Digital) Clinician Scientists 2024

© Charité_I_Janine_Oswald

The Stiftung Charité, together with the BIH Biomedical Innovation Academy (BIA), supports the international scientific exchange of BIH Charité (Digital) Clinician Scientists by providing Internationalization Grants. The new funding format was developed together by BIA and Stiftung Charité who finances the grants. As part of the pilot call, four internationalization grants can be acquired competitively. Only Fellows of the (D)CSP are eligible to apply.

The success of research and its benefit to society through the application of results in practice is enhanced by networking and collaboration. The BIH Biomedical Innovation Academy's program data show that BIH Charité Clinician Scientist Program fellows have already very successfully established international contacts and are active in global networks. In order to intensify these relevant networking activities, Internationalization Grants will be used to enable collaboration with international experts on joint projects.

Over the next five years, the Stiftung Charité will provide 20 Internationalization Grants (four grants per year of 5,000 euros each) to intensify the collaboration of fellows with international experts in the context of cooperation projects.

The aim of the Internationalization Grants is to intensify international cooperation and to work together on joint projects “side by side” - either outbound: scientist to the partner laboratory abroad, or inbound: visit of the external partner to the home laboratory
