The European Science Foundation (ESF) is offering, in 2005, a total of about 50
awards for Exploratory
Workshops
across
all
scientific domains
to allow
leading European scientists to meet to explore novel ideas at the European level
with the aim of "spearheading" new areas of research. The aim of an ESF
Exploratory workshop is to:
- target
and explore either or both:
- a challenging scientific topic, preferably
an emerging
or innovative field of research
- a
challenging science-driven issue of
research
infrastructure
(RI)
that would benefit from a
collaborative
European approach
- foster
transnational and interdisciplinary links
- develop
potential collaborative research projects
Applications
must demonstrate the potential importance of European collaboration in the
chosen field (added
value for
European science).
Exploratory
workshop awards will normally be for around
20-25
participants and up to
a maximum value of
15
000 Euros. Awards are
for workshops to
be held in the calendar year 2005
(1
January-31 December).
Deadline
for receipt of proposals: 1 May 2004
