You are an early-career researcher or a permanent researcher and you are a member of an EVOLTREE partner lab?
You have a good research idea in the field of evolutionary genetics and genomics of forest trees, but lack funding to carry it out?  Leap into action with the network's research initiative, OPPORTUNITY!

The OPPORTUNITY grant will support an independent research activity linked to the following major disciplines: Ecology, Genetics, Genomics and Evolution aiming at increasing knowledge on climate adaptation, forest health, productivity and conservation in forest ecosystems, using population and quantitative genetics, and genomics approaches.

The funding is meant to support innovative ideas and not as an additional funding to ongoing larger projects. Funding can be used for traveling, project-related expenses, hiring of personnel, or any other funds needed to develop your idea.
