  • The VU IXA-GO grant application support is freely available to post-PhD researchers who are already affiliated with VU Amsterdam and for post-PhD researchers who are confirmed to be moving to VU Amsterdam (including those contingent on the awarding of the grant)
  • The grants office will only give grant application support to grants of €250k and above
