The fall is full of deadlines for smaller grants (among others), a great opportunity to practice your grant writing! We all aim to get a VR, Formas, Cancer Foundation, or ERC grants, but we can’t forget that there are many foundations that give small grants from 10 000 SEK to 500 000 SEK. Find current open calls here.

Junior Faculty are inviting you to our first “Shut Up & Write” sessions. Shut Up & Write is a concept of creating a distraction-free space to write together – in silence. This is not the time for feedback, but to put words on paper. At the beginning of the session, you will set a goal for your writing, and then we will work in two 45-minute blocks, with a short break in between. We will end with a brief reflection.

We will meet in person with a limited number of seats, as well as have an open Zoom room.

September 10, 15:00-17:00 at BMC
September 24, 10:00-12:00 at Ångström
