AXA Research Fund

AXA Research Fund funds academic research with a focus on health, environment and socio-economics.

AXA annually announces funding for:

AXA Chairs: a call for the recruitment of a senior researcher (at least 10 years after dissertation) who has demonstrated outstanding research results. The recruitment should lead to development of the research area at the host institution and the researcher's career.

The grant is a maximum of € 200,000 per year for 5 years. No indirect costs can be charged to the grant. In addition to the granted funds, the host institution should provide additional support to the candidate in terms of, for example, students, postdoc support and material resources related to the research program. The call is currently not open for nomination.

AXA Fellowships: a call for the recruitment of prominent younger researchers. Each grant is a maximum of € 130,000 for up to 24 months. No indirect costs are covered by the grant. The call is currently not open for nomination.

Internal nomination procedure at UU

Uppsala University may only submit one nomination per year and call. If there is a need for prioritization of candidates, this is done by the relevant vice-rectors.
