With the help of two of her board member colleagues at APECS Germany, our research group member Lena Nicola composed a small publication on the topic of research funding, which is needed by polar early-career researcher (ECR) to participate in conferences, undertake fieldwork campaigns or pay for salaries, such as in PhD projects or (permanent) research positions. The paper further introduces a list of grant, fellowship and other funding opportunities which is hosted at the APECS Germany website, while highlighting best practices for the funding quest.
