Application Process

Humboldt meets Leibniz is intended for talented, highly motivated early career and emerging doctoral and postdoctoral researchers from Germany and abroad. Postdoctoral researchers must have completed their doctorate no more than six years prior to the event. We particularly encourage applications from female researchers. Requirements:

• Research focus in the field of Biomedical Engineering and Implant Research including biomedical research, materials science and metamaterials, material simulation, microelectronics and sensor technology, tissue engineering, (dental) prosthetics, medical and bioinformatics and machine learning
• Above-average qualifications
• Personal motivation to participate in the event

The open application process has several stages.

1. Applicants need to complete the online application and upload the required documents.
2. The funding team at Leibniz University Hannover selects those candidates who meet the formal requirements.
3. A selection committee decides which applicants are eligible for funding. The best applications are selected directly and approved for funding.
4. The remaining eligible applications are selected at random.
    

Applications must be submitted by 3 March 2024.

Information on whether applications have been approved or rejected will be provided by May 2024. Selected academic partners will have the opportunity to recommend a limited number of participants.

A fixed number of places will be allocated for junior researchers at Leibniz University Hannover. Internal applications will be subject to the same selection process as external applications.

The conference expenses will be covered for selected participants (conference fees, catering and tickets for public transport on site). These individuals will also be provided with an allowance for travel and accommodation. The amount provided for travel and accommodation will vary depending on the country of origin.
