Purpose
With the overall aim of catalyzing Danish fundamental research impacting better health through knowledge, the purpose of the ‘Hallas-Møller Emerging Investigator – Bioscience and
Basic Biomedicine’ grant is to support highly promising starting group leaders with novel and ambitious projects that will bring new and important insight into human health and disease.
Areas of Support
The fundamental research should be within bioscience and/or basic biomedicine and the project relevant for understanding the human organism and/or basal mechanisms underlying
health and disease. The research fields include (but are not limited to): molecular biology, cellbiology, bioinformatics, modelling of biological systems, genetics, microbiology, pharmacology, experimental physiology, biophysics, biochemistry, biology, and biostatistics etc. The research will typically be carried out in animals, cellular or subcellular model systems, or in silico.
