Helmholtz Young Investigator Groups

The Helmholtz Young Investigator Groups offer top international talents early scientific independence. Funding is at least 300,000 euros p.a. for five years. If the evaluation is positive after 4 years, the group leader receives an offer of a permanent position at the Helmholtz Center.

The group leaders receive professional skills training by the Helmholtz Leadership Academy. Helmholtz Young Investigator Groups are generally established together with a German university partner.
