Danmarks Frie Forskningsfond investerer nu i alt 696 millioner kroner i 202 nye forskningsideer fra alle faglige hovedområder. De 219 mio. kr. går til AU-forskere, og af dem tegner forskere hos Natural Sciences sig for knap halvdelen, nemlig 97,6 mio. kr.

Bevillingerne fra DFF fordeler sig således:
