Technische Universität Dresden is advertising the Maria Reiche Postdoctoral Fellowships , a fully funded postdoctoral fellowship designed to support excellent female postdocs who want to build an independent research profile and prepare an external third-party funding application for the next stage of an academic career. The fellowship is aimed at researchers working toward a professorship track and supports the development of a strong scientific portfolio, including the preparation of proposals for schemes such as DFG Emmy Noether, ERC Starting Grant, or DFG Heisenberg Program. The funding is hosted at TU Dresden and is intended to help fellows develop their own research direction while being embedded in a professorship or research institution at the university. Funding: full-time fellowship for up to 24 months, monthly scholarship rate of 2,670 EUR, possible family allowance, and up to 2,500 EUR for basic workplace equipment. The fellowship is not an employment relationship and does not include health, accident, or third-party liability insurance. Eligibility: female early career researchers who completed their doctorate no longer than six years ago. The post also notes that maternity and parental leave may be counted in the six-year calculation. Applicants must submit a project description focused on the planned third-party funding application, including main topic, aims, work plan, timeline, personal assessment, and a statement explaining why Dresden/TU Dresden is the preferred research location. Application deadline: 2026-09-30. The complete application must be submitted as a single digital PDF file. Required documents include the online application form, annex, recommendation from the hosting professorship at TU Dresden, and any applicable reference or faculty support statement. Research areas: the post is connected to behavioral therapy/psychology through the announcer’s institute, and may suit candidates in psychology, clinical/medical science, or related fields seeking a postdoctoral career-development fellowship.
