The HU Research Service Center hosts a portal for Postdocs, Junior Professors and leaders of Junior Research Groups, but of course also for PhD students at their final stage of their PhD and, last but not least, for international Postdocs of all career levels, who want to do research at the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin.
They provide:
- Support in finding suitable national and international funding options, e.g. AvH, DAAD, DFG or MSCA
- Feedback for researchers who are submitting their funding applications
- Development of individual „Funding Strategies“ or „Third-party-funding Careers“
