Career Development Award

Giovanni Armenise Harvard Foundation

Further:

  • As part of the preliminary discussion with a Host Institute, an offer of a tenure-track position is desirable.
  • Applicants who have been short-listed and invited to the interview may reapply in future calls for a maximum of three interviews, as long as they continue to meet the eligibility criteria. However, applicants who have not been short-listed on two separate calls are no longer eligible to reapply.

FUNDING

  • Appointments are usually ratified by the Board of Trustees in December.  Award winners have until the end of January to accept or decline the award and state when they will be moving to Italy to take up the grant. The start date must be within July 1, 2026 and December 31, 2026.
  • Each award will be granted initially for three years and will be distributed annually at a rate of $200,000 per year, per scholar.
  • Funds can cover salaries for the scholar (commensurate with the position at the Host Institute), technicians, junior scientists, research supplies or administrative support required for the program. Recognizing that the salary levels, personal benefits, and faculty position are a matter of negotiation between the Host Institute and the recipient, the Foundation is happy to have the award be used flexibly as an incentive to attract high-caliber scientists. Funds can also cover specialized equipment not normally available at the Host Institute.
  • The Host Institute must provide the facilities, equipment, and infrastructure necessary to carry out the proposed research. However, up to 10% of the funds can be used for administrative costs associated with the program in the host department.
  • A candidate who is nominated for a Giovanni Armenise Harvard Foundation Career Development Award (CDA) may not hold this award concurrently with another grant designed to assist in establishing the scientist at a Host Institute in Italy and to pursue the same line of research. Exceptions to this will be made only under exceptional circumstances, which must be communicated promptly to the Armenise Harvard Foundation for consideration.  Co-funding from the Host Institute, on the other hand, would be positively considered.

CHANGES IN STATUS OF THE AWARDEE

  • If, after the Award recipient has moved to Italy and taken up the grant, he/she receives a permanent position and/or salary from other sources additional to the Award, the recipient may use the preserved funding (i.e., no longer used for salary) to support the research program in other ways, provided that the goals of the research program are unchanged. The Foundation should be notified promptly of the change in status.
  • If the Award recipient wishes to change Host Institute before taking up the grant, the original grant may be forfeited and a new application may have to be made the following year. This circumstance would be handled on an individual basis.
  • Please be aware that any dual affiliation/ appointment that was not disclosed at the time of the application must be approved by the Giovanni Armenise Harvard Foundation (GAHF).  The GAHF reserves the right to terminate the Career Development Award should the time and effort dedicated to the CDA-sponsored project be deemed inappropriate by the Giovanni Armenise Harvard Foundation.  Failure to disclose another affiliation/appointment may result in the loss of the CDA and repayment of prior funds.

EVALUATION AND REPORTING

Award recipients will be expected to provide an annual progress report, including a financial report and a brief summary of their research activity.

After the initial three years, to apply for a further two years of funding, a detailed description of all work accomplished and in progress as a result of the Giovanni Armenise Harvard Foundation CDA must be submitted towards the end of the third year.  A report from the Host Institute will also be required at this time.  If the additional two-year funding is granted, an annual report would be due for the fourth year, and a final report from both the grant recipient and the Host Institute must be provided at the end of the fifth year.  Reports will describe publications, other support from research grants or contracts, honors and awards, professional activities, and other information helpful in evaluating the impact of the program on the scientific achievement of the individual.

The Giovanni Armenise Harvard Foundation should be acknowledged in all publications emanating from the research carried out during the award period.

OTHER BENEFITS

  • Awardees will be invited to take part in thematically-relevant Armenise Harvard Foundation symposia during the term of the Career Development Award.
  • Awardees will be invited to take part in both annual events and workshops.
  • Awardees will be eligible to apply to the Giovanni Armenise Travel Fellowship.

APPLICATION DEADLINE:

July 15 (11:59pm EDT) each year.

  • Be young, emerging basic scientists with demonstrated productivity and the ability to function as an independent investigator.
  • Have a minimum of three years of postdoctoral research experience in basic biological sciences (including at least two years abroad) and be no more than 10 years from having received a PhD.  The calculation of the three and 10 years is made by comparing the date the degree was conferred with the CDA application deadline (i.e. July 15, 2025), so this year the degree should have been received no earlier than July 15, 2015, and not later than July 15, 2022. Please note that:
    • The actual elapsed time since the award of the first PhD considered for eligibility can be reduced in the following properly documented circumstances. For maternity, the actual elapsed time since the award of the first PhD will be considered reduced by 18 months for each child born during PhD study or after the PhD award. For paternity, the actual elapsed time since the award of the first PhD will be considered reduced by the documented amount of paternity leave actually taken for each child born during PhD study or after the PhD award. For long-term illness, clinical training or national service the actual elapsed time since the award of the first PhD will be considered reduced by the documented amount of leave actually taken by the applicant for each incident which occurred after the PhD award.
  • Be researchers outside of Italy who wish to move and become part of the community of researchers in Italy.  Applicants must be working outside of Italy, not only at the time of application, but also when the award is made and accepted.
  • Have an agreement for development of a novel research area in a suitable Host Institute in Italy.   Preferably, this is at an institution other than where the candidate has done doctoral study, post-doctoral research or held a job.
  • Not have a pre-existing contract, independent of this grant, with a prospective Host Institute in Italy.  Applications from candidates who have already been offered an appointment at an Italian Host Institute will not be considered.
  • Be fully committed to the launch, development, operation and long-term success of their independent laboratory at the Host Institute in Italy.
