Grant for research in geriatric medicine

The Fund Marie-Thérèse De Lava and the Fund Robert Schneider wish to foster research in geriatric medicine, which plays an increasing role in health care. Both Funds aim to encourage high level researchers to develop their career by combining scientific research in geriatrics with clinical practice.

The support of max. 140.000 € over a period of 3 years, should enable a promising researcher in geriatrics to develop his own research line and to anchor his longer-term research vision. The research will focus on improving health, well-being and quality of life of older adults.
