Now open for application!

For the third consecutive year, the Nordic Dermatology Association (NDA) will offer our NDA Research Grant 2022 (80,000 SEK). Applications will be admitted starting on August 15^th, 2022. The grant will be given to one dermatological trainee or either resident or a recently approved specialist in dermatology and venereology (or split between two), working in a Nordic country and who is either a PhD student or a Postdoctoral researcher.

Research projects on dermatological diseases with few funding possibilities and planned Nordic collaboration or mobility involving research visits to another Nordic country are considered advantageous.

The applications will be evaluated by the NDA Research Committee according to their clinical and scientific importance and feasibility.

Applications should be written in English and sent as a single pdf-file including:

• Short CV, including a list of publications (if any).
• Short research plan, maximum 3 pages including references.
• Short description of how the grant will be utilized (budget, and if a plan includes mobility, description of how it will benefit the research project)
• In case of planned mobility, informal invitation letter from the welcoming research group leader

Researchers receiving a NDA Research Grant are expected to provide an update and preliminary results of their research project to the NDA board within one year and will be offered a possibility to present their results in the next NCDV congress.

Applications can be sent between August 15^th and October 16^th, 2022 to: info@nordicdermatology.com.

It is a great pleasure to welcome you to the 35^th Nordic Congress of Dermatology & Venereology, NCDV 2022 in Copenhagen on April 19–22, 2022 to celebrate dermatology and venereology. 

We will celebrate what new things we have discovered together, what we have learned from our discoveries, and what we can achieve together for the benefit of our patients. We will do this through a series of carefully orchestrated symposia, designed to catch your attention and maximize your benefit through didactic design.
