We are looking for innovative research proposals from scientists worldwide. Top submitters will be invited to a deep dive workshop to further advance the proposals together with our scientists. The deep dive workshop will include decision on grant recipients. Merck will then enter into bilateral collaboration agreements with the winning recipients to enable pay-out of the research grant and project start in 2023. Detailed description of the challenges, the application process and timing of the deep dive workshops are available at: researchgrants.merckgroup.com
Applications deadline Aug. 31st, 2022.
