Scholarship programs 2018/2019

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

The Foundation announced scholarships in three programs: “The Wallenberg Foundation Postdoctoral Scholarship Program at Stanford”, ”The Wallenberg Foundation scholarship program for postdoctoral studies at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Broad Institute” and The Wallenberg Foundation Postdoctoral Fellowships at Nanyang Technological University (NTU) Singapore.

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.
