The University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) and Ghent University (UGent) are engaged in a partnership to foster cooperation between similar research groups, stimulate mobility of staff and researchers from both universities and to organize joint multidisciplinary workshops to collaborate, to discuss, and to prepare cooperation on research and/or education with view on a long-lasting collaboration. This partnership leverages the complementary research or/and educational strengths in the two academic communities to deliver a high-quality program of research and education (at graduate / master / PhD level) and offer sustained and high-impact science with real-world outcomes.
Scope: within this partnership a call is launched for a multidisciplinary multi-day expert workshop. The aim is to strive for excellence by bringing key partners together for an intensive work period with high potential of future outcomes (papers, projects, unexplored research domains,…).
Funding: a maximum of 25.000 euro can be applied for per application.
