Seven Dutch research consortia have secured funding through the NWO Gravitation programme. Molecular-oriented research is well represented in this round; members of KNCV (chemistry), NBV (biotechnology) and NVBMB (biochemistry and molecular biology) play a leading role in four of the selected consortia.  

Since 2012, the Dutch Research Council (NWO) deploys the Gravitation-programme to support and stimulate long-term partnerships between leading scientists from different areas to develop innovative areas of scientific research. The total budget of the current Gravitation-round amounts to €160.5 million. Members of KNCV, NBV and/or NVBMB are involved in four of the awarded proposals:
