About the Sartorius Eureka Grant

Big discoveries often begin with one missing experiment, one critical dataset, or one final push toward publication.

The Sartorius Eureka Grant was created to help transform promising ideas into meaningful scientific impact.

In 2026, Sartorius will award EUR 5,000 to one selected applicant to help bring their research one step closer to its breakthrough moment.
