BO & KERSTIN HJELT DIABETES FOUNDATION

The Most Important in Brief

Purpose (SOGC)

1. Funding Policy

   The foundation annually attributdes fellowships to Geneva and Lund Universities. After reception of research applications from the two universities, a Scientific Advisory Board comprising Leif Groop, Claes Wollheim and Joachim Karsegard will establish a list of candidates to whom Fellowships should be attributed.

   The foundation solicits applications from independent investigators or young scientists on the way to independence. Preference will be given to novel projects rather than support for on-going research. The subsidy can cover salaries and/or costs for consumables including laboratory rodents.
