IXA-GO, VU Grants Office is organizing additional information sessions on the pre-application phase of the Vidi grant this year. This year, the deadline for the NWO Vidi grant is November 2, 2023. The grant is now open for the Science (ENW), SSH (SGW), AES (TTW) and ZonMw** domains. The Vidi will introduce an application procedure consisting of two steps (a preliminary application and an elaborated application) for all domains. The preliminary application will only consist of a narrative CV and a short summary of your proposal (the latter will not count towards the score).
This information session is intended to provide VU researchers with comprehensive information on the narrative CV (consisting of an academic profile + key output items). Of course, there will be ample opportunity during the session to ask questions about the Vidi grant.
Embedding required!: please note that an embedding guarantee is required for a Vidi application! This is a form which guarantees your place at VU during the Vidi project. Please contact your department or faculty contact person in good time to see what the possibilities are to get a guarantee within your faculty. We strongly recommend doing this as soon as possible and at least 1 month in advance, some faculties have strict deadlines for this.
Review of your application: IXA-GO is available to review your pre-proposal. You can schedule an appointment for this at subsidiedesk@vu.nl. Due to high interest in the Vidi, we expect to accept applications received after October 23 only on a first come first serve basis.
Further questions? Please feel free to contact us at subsidiedesk@vu.nl
When: Tuesday October 3 and Wednesday October 4, 2023
Time: 03:00 PM - 04:30 PM (on both days)
