New Funding Scheme for Infrastructure

As part of a pilot initiative running until the end of 2025, the German Research Foundation (DFG), in coordination with the Joint Science Conference (GWK), is offering additional funding opportunities within the Research Equipment Program under Article 91b of the Basic Law. The aim is to renew or upgrade existing large-scale research equipment for extended use in research. Within this framework, proposals may also be submitted for equipment renewals where the investment costs fall below the usual threshold values of the large-scale research equipment program.
