That big grant that I spent a month on, where I actually stood a good chance of getting funded for 4 years as a junior research group leader

It was just cancelled thanks to this:

science.org/content/article/co

I spent ~ a month on it for literally nothing

And now I don't know if I can even apply for other funding?

Like, if it's the law that a postdoc can't get hired in Berlin unless they bring $ Forever worth of grant money, uhhh good luck to all of us

:NoAt: I'm just expressing frustration, not looking for help

@bgcarlisle As a maybe-looking-for-postdoc-in-6-months person whose only group idea so far is a group in Berlin, this is terrifying :ms_grimace:

Also sorry for you application :flan_tired:
