The FWF (Austrian Science Fund) is Austria's central body for the promotion of basic research. It invests in new ideas that contribute to advancing knowledge and thereby further development. In doing so, the FWF is equally committed to all branches of science and the humanities and is guided in its operations solely by the standards of the international scientific community. From the very start, an international perspective has been one of the cornerstones of the FWF's philosophy. The FWF has been providing generous levels of support for cooperation between Austrian scientists and their partners abroad: e.g., the mobility programs for young researchers such as Erwin Schrödinger (outgoing) and Lise Meitner (incoming) are firmly embedded in the FWF's funding portfolio.
