Minerva Foundation

The Minna-James-Heineman-Stiftung was established in 1928 by Dannie and Hettie Heineman. It supports charitable as well as scientific institutions and fosters research, training and cooperation in the scientific realm both at home and abroad, especially in Germany and Israel. They offer different funding streams such as fellowships, short-term research grants to give young German and Israeli scientists the opportunity to visit research partners or to establish contacts with scientists in the respective guest country, or the Minerva Centers or the German-Israeli Minerva Schools.
