What an EHA Innovation Grant supports

Our EHA Innovation Grant supports high-quality clinical or translational research in hematology.

To reflect the collaborative spirit of the grant, no more than 40% of the total grant should be allocated to one member of the consortium.

Costs that can be supported by an EHA Innovation Grant

  • Personnel costs. This might mean you as the applicant or the costs of hiring other research staff to work directly on the project. For example, you could use the grant to hire a postdoctoral researcher, research assistant, or bioinformatician.
  • Lab consumables.
  • Small equipment. However, in all cases, you must provide a justification for the expense.
  • Miscellaneous expenses, such as publication of your project's results.

Mandatory costs

You must use some of your grant to pay for:

  • Attendance at every EHA Congress that's held whilst your project is active (maximum €2,000 per PI per year)
  • A final audit of your project's financial costs (maximum €2,000 per PI)

Costs that cannot be supported by an EHA Research Grant

  • Overhead costs.
  • Excessive travel costs, other than to the EHA Congress (see above).
  • Costs that are covered by another fund, even if new funding is acquired during the project, that make all or part of the EHA grant redundant.

Any acquired funding must be communicated to grants@ehaweb.org within 30 days of its awarding.

In addition, PIs should provide details on how the various grants will be used together.

If you have questions, please contact us at EHA-Grants@ecorys.com before submitting an application.
