The São Paulo Research Foundation (FAPESP) and the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO) make public a new call for proposals for the support of research projects within the scope of the scientific cooperation agreement between the institutions.

The aim of this call is to strengthen research cooperation between researchers in the State of São Paulo and researchers in the Netherlands by funding joint research projects in the field of Advanced Instrumentation for Astronomy.

Project proposals must be jointly written by researchers associated to research institutions in the State of Sao Paulo and in the Netherlands and must reflect unison and close cooperation.

Requested funding may cover research and travel expenses, according to each institution’s guidelines. A total budget of approximately € 3.0 million is jointly made available. FAPESP and NWO will each contribute up to € 1.5 million.

In the State of São Paulo, proposals must be submitted by researchers associated to research institutions in the State of São Paulo to FAPESP either as Regular or Thematic Research Awards.

NWO and FAPESP expect to select from three to nine research projects, which can have a duration between two and five years.
