Eccellenza Fellowship for Friedemann Zenke

FMI group leader Friedemann Zenke receives an Eccellenza Professorial Fellowship from the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF). These recognitions are awarded yearly to outstanding independent researchers who aspire to a permanent professorship. The SNSF uses the Eccellenza Professorial Fellowships to finance outstanding young researchers who aspire to a professorship. The five-year funding period comprises salary and project funds, which enables the researchers to lead a research project with their own team. The fellowships are linked to an appointment as assistant professor at the university chosen by the researchers for their project. This year the SNSF received 244 Eccellenza proposals. After a two-stage evaluation process, 32 projects were selected for funding, for a total of 57 million Swiss francs.
