In 1995, the successful industrial chemist and Staudinger awardee Dr. Hermann Schnell (1916 - 1999) established a foundation named after him at the German Chemical Society . The purpose of the Dr. Hermann Schnell Foundation is to support young scientists in the field of macromolecular chemistry, its physical-chemical principles and its analytics.
A scholarship is available to young chemists working at universities or publicly funded research institutions, who should generally be postdoctoral researchers and have German citizenship.
For people from other European countries, there must be evidence of close cooperation with German researchers or research institutions. Funding is provided in the form of scholarships. The awarding of scholarships is announced through a call for proposals ; self-applications are possible. The foundation's advisory board selects the individuals worthy of funding. Two members of the GDCh Division of Macromolecular Chemistry serve on the advisory board.
