FAPESP announces the result of a call for proposals issued in partnership with the European Research Council (ERC), and the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development, and articulated by the Brazilian National Council of State Funding Agencies (CONFAP). Six proposals were selected.

The selected proposals’ Principal Investigators will integrate teams from projects currently financed by the ERC. FAPESP will provide funding for travel expenses through its Research Fellowship Abroad, for a period of up to 12 months.

The call encompassed several topics of investigation belonging to all fields of knowledge. Its main goal was fostering the participation of São Paulo State researchers in ERC-funded projects.
