Scholarship Programs 2016/2017

From time to time the Foundation issues calls for applications for fellowships in areas of importance to Swedish research

The Foundation announced scholarships in two programs at the end of 2016: “The Wallenberg Foundation Postdoctoral Scholarship Program at Stanford” and ” The Wallenberg Foundation Postdoctoral Fellowship Program at the Broad Institute”.

Individual grants are not awarded for applicants’ own studies outside of the Foundation’s regular scholarship programs. Special application periods apply for the Foundation’s scholarship programs.

Applications from individuals who have no lasting association with an academic institution will not be considered.
