THE AFR INDIVIDUAL POSTDOC SCHEME
The AFR Individual Postdoc Scheme ran from 2008 to 2016.
In 2015, the scheme underwent a reform, and no new calls were or will be issued under the scheme. However, AFR postdoc grants are still awarded through Industrial Fellowships in the framework of public-private partnerships (partnerships between research and industry).
