Curation Grants

The TIB Leibniz Information Centre for Science and Technology regularly invites applications for ORKG Curation Grants, to which researchers (advanced PhD students welcome) from various fields can apply. Successful applicants will make regular contributions to the ORKG in their research field, for which they will be personally compensated with 400 EUR per month. Grants initially run for six months, with the possibility of extension, and require you to invest approximately one day per week contributing to the ORKG. We expect grantees to add key research questions and corresponding research contributions in their research field to the ORKG. Grantees will be part of a joint effort to contribute to one of the biggest challenges in research―better organizing the contents of scholarly publications in their fields.
