Time and space for innovative ideas.

Funding programmes.

With its funding programmes, the Boehringer Ingelheim Stiftung aims to give outstanding scientists the freedom to pursue highly original and high-risk research ideas, thereby further developing their research profiles during critical phases of their careers.

Exploration Grants are aimed at independent junior group leaders at universities and research institutions in Germany, while Rise up! supports researchers who have recently been appointed to their first W2 professorship at a German university.

Through CoMove, the Boehringer Ingelheim Foundation supports excellent basic researchers who follow their dual-career partner to Germany or Austria and who wish to establish a new research group at an academic institution there.

With the Scientific Conferences programme, the Boehringer Ingelheim Stiftung promotes international and cross-generational exchange on the latest research findings.
