Call for project funding SFO-V 2026

The SFO-V will award up to 20 projects of SEK 600k each for 2026, of which 50% will be awarded to junior researchers (PhD obtained no more than seven years ago).

An extension of further funding for 2027 will be possible, under the assumption of available funding and based on the progress report and therefore project and budget should involve 2 years. 

Researchers can only be the main applicant for one project and earlier grants received from SFO-V need to be ended. Applications on pilot projects and feasibility studies are welcome. Please be advised that all grantees are expected to enhance the SFO-V research community by delivering a series of open seminars that align with our core research areas.

A link to the application submission portal will be published on December 1th 2025 and will be closed January 15th 2026
