The Dutch Research Council (NWO) yearly awards researchers with Veni, Vidi and Vici grants. These grants are awarded to talented and creative researchers to conduct research of their choice. The grants are part of the Talent Program within NWO, which aims to stimulate the development of researchers in different stages of their careers.
Veni: Veni grants allows researchers who have recently obtained their PhD to conduct independent research and develop their ideas for a period of three years.
Vidi: Vidi grants is for researchers who have carried out several years of postdoctoral research after their Phd and have demonstrated the ability to independently generate and effect innovative ideas.
Vici: Vici grants is for senior researchers who have demonstrated an ability to develop their own line of research.
