Scientific development

The programme supports research projects focused on developing science. Often these projects involve research within a specific field of expertise. Research teams use each other's research facilities, unique collections and archives and specific research methods.

These collaborations can lead to bilateral joint PhD tracks, joint publications in renowned peer reviewed journals and collaborations within an EU context.
