Events in Physics
The Royal Society and the National Center for Scientific Research France (CNRS) invite applications for the cost-share programme of their international exchanges scheme. This stimulates new collaborations within the natural sciences between scientists in the UK and France. The natural sciences include physics, chemistry, mathematics, computer science, engineering, agricultural, biological and medical research, the scientific aspects of archaeology, geography and experimental psychology but not social science or clinical or patient-oriented research.
The UK applicant must apply to the Royal Society and the French applicant must apply to CNRS. Both applicants must have completed a PhD or have extensive experience at an equivalent level. They must hold a permanent or fixed term contract at an eligible university or research institute in their country.
The Royal Society provides up to 拢12,000 for the UK team as a contribution towards their travel and subsistence costs. Up to 拢2,000 of this amount may be spent on research expenses and consumables. An additional 拢12,000 equivalent is available from CNRS towards the French team鈥檚 travel and subsistence costs. Awards are tenable for two years.
