FAPESP and British Council select research workshops Versão em português
The São Paulo Research Foundation (FAPESP) and the British Council, with the Newton Fund, announce the result of a call for proposals to support the organization of research workshops issued in April.
The FAPESP / Brazil-Newton Researcher Links (BNRL) Workshop 2015 call for proposals was designed to provide financial support to bring together a UK/São Paulo State cohort of early career researchers to take part in a workshop focusing on building links for future collaboration and enhancing the researchers’ career opportunities.
Three proposals were selected in São Paulo and will be coordinated by two leading researchers: one from a UK institution, one working in a higher education or research institution in the State of São Paulo.
Selected proposals in São Paulo:
