If you are planning to submit a funding proposal to the German Research Foundation (DFG), you've probably come across the DFG's new mandatory CV template. Unlike traditional CVs, this template requires you to contextualize your scientific achievements and career path in a partially narrative format. This innovative approach may seem unfamiliar at first.In this presentation we cover these aspects:- Understanding the rationale and context of this new format,- Best practices for completing the form, with a focus on optimizing the free text fields,- Personal Insights: Share your experiences and tips if you have already used the new template. We also provide information on further resources and information material.

Abstract

If you are planning to submit a funding proposal to the German Research Foundation (DFG), you've probably come across the DFG's new mandatory CV template. Unlike traditional CVs, this template requires you to contextualize your scientific achievements and career path in a partially narrative format. This innovative approach may seem unfamiliar at first.In this presentation we cover these aspects:- Understanding the rationale and context of this new format,- Best practices for completing the form, with a focus on optimizing the free text fields,- Personal Insights: Share your experiences and tips if you have already used the new template. We also provide information on further resources and information material.
