PhD fellowship
Supporting the future of Parkinson’s research
The FWO – Demoucelle Parkinson Charity PhD fellowship is aimed at advancing Parkinson’s research within Belgian institutions by supporting researchers at the formative stage of their careers. By enabling high-quality doctoral work, we help to ensure that Parkinson’s remains an active field of scientific inquiry in Belgium for years to come. The fellowship is offered in collaboration with the Fonds voor Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek (FWO) and is fully embedded within the standard FWO PhD framework.
By supporting scientists at the start of their journey, we are investing in the long-term expertise needed to solve the complexities of Parkinson’s.
