The European Sleep Research Society (ESRS) offers this grant to help sleep professionals participate in its Sleep Medicine Examination and advance their careers in sleep research. The programme particularly supports junior candidates in the early stages of their careers, although there is no upper age limit. It funds examination participation rather than a separate research project.
Support is available to candidates meeting the examination requirements for Somnologists or Technologists, and is awarded only after examination eligibility has been approved. Candidates of all nationalities, based within or outside Europe, may apply. Alongside financial support, the grant includes a copy of the ESRS Sleep Medicine Textbook with free shipping. The ESRS Examination Subcommittee ranks grant applications.
