MINIATURA 9 is directed at researchers with a PhD degree obtained no sooner than in 2013, who have not taken advantage of any NCN grant calls, whose scientific achievements include at least one paper published or at least one artistic achievement or achievement in research in art. The subject matter may be any, but must be carried out in the form of preliminary studies, library and archive searches, or research visits over a period of up to 12 months. The grants are supposed to be the starting point for a full-fledged research project.

The second MINIATURA 9 ranking list includes 65 activities for a total of PLN 2.6 million.
