This year, a total of 49 researchers receive 97 million DKK for their research experiments through Villum Experiment.

Three researchers from Globe Institute receive grants for research projects, each of which is meant to challenge norms and rethink the way we work on important research topics.

All applications are evaluated anonymously, so they are assessed solely based on their potential to change our understanding of the world. The grants run for two years.

The grants for Globe go to:

PhD Emilio Mármol Sánchez
