Grants are personal and they cannot be transferred to a third party. Personal grants are intended to allow full-time research leave for the recipient. However, the grant is not a salary for work done in an employment or service relationship. Grants may be applied from one fund only.

We will notify all applicants personally of the grant awarded by the end of 2023.
Finnish Brain Foundation is building the Finland of the future, where fewer of us will suffer from diseases of the brain and nervous system. We do this by promoting research through donations and by increasing understanding of brain health, brain diseases and brain research in collaboration with researchers in various fields.
