NWO Funds 205 Early-Career Researchers | Amsterdam News

The Dutch Research Council just awarded 205 early-career scientists Veni grants—up from last year’s 200—to fund bold, fresh research ideas for up to three years, with awards topping €320,000. Projects span Alzheimer’s, AI’s impact on beauty standards, gender differences in alternative medicine, and early detection of cognitive decline in MS patients. With 1,400 applicants and a gender split of 115 women and 88 men, this year’s cohort reflects growing diversity. Named after Caesar’s “I came, I saw, I conquered,” the Veni grants are the first step in NWO’s ladder of research support, helping new PhDs launch their careers.
