We are delighted to introduce the 2025 TEP grant awardees!

2026 TEP Congratulations Website

TEP has now successfully concluded

Enormous, heartfelt thanks to everyone who has made TEP a success. Originally planned to run only for five years, it ran for 10, awarding grants to over 60 early career academics. 

We are very grateful to ISRHML as well as to Professor Dr. Lars Bode and Dr. Sara Moukarzel for spearheading the initiative, and to each mentor, host and home institution, the awardees, all who applied, and countless others who championed the program.

Thank you sincerely!

TEP provides merit-based funding up to USD 250,000 for two types of projects:

Trainee Bridge Fund (TBF) grants provide up to USD 100,000 for activities achievable within one year

Trainee Travel Fund (TTF) grants provide up to USD 10,000 for activities achievable between two weeks and three months
