The São Paulo Research Foundation (FAPESP) and the Danish Council for Strategic Research (DCSR) announce a new call for proposals for joint research in food science under the Scientific Cooperation Agreement between the institutions.
The proposals must be prepared jointly by Brazilian and Danish researchers. In the State of São Paulo, Brazil, eligible applicants are researchers who comply with the FAPESP’s Thematic Projects eligibility criteria. In Denmark, the call is open for any Danish proposers who comply with the DCSR criteria for eligibility.
For both regions it is of major importance to provide solutions within the field of food science in order to accommodate to the challenges related to “Bio-refinery" and/or “Food and Health”. The aim of this call is that the funded projects deliver considerable and tangible results at the end of the project period.
FAPESP and the DCSR expect to jointly fund up to three projects with a total amount (sum of costs charged to FAPESP and the DCSR) of around US$ 4 million for all projects.
The duration of the proposed research projects in this call for proposals may be up to 48 (forty eight) months. The closing date for receiving of proposals is July 1st, 2013.
The call for proposals is available at: www.fapesp.br/en/7607
