Applications are now being received for scientific visits to Germany beginning between 1 July 2010 and 30 June 2011 to work on collaborative research projects.
The Australian Academy of Science, on behalf of the Australian Government Department of Innovation, Industry, Science and Research, invites applications from Australian researchers wishing to establish or enhance collaborative projects with their German counterparts.
The Australia-Germany Researcher Mobility Call 2010/11 (‘mobility call’) is a one-off funding source to facilitate bilateral research. Travel funding is provided for Australian researchers to visit Germany (up to three months per trip) between 1 July 2010 and 30 June 2011 to work on collaborative research projects with German counterparts. Funding supports international travel and living expenses only; not direct research costs.
The Australian and German Governments have identified a number of areas of priority for bilateral collaboration. Proposals in the fields of nanotechnology; environmental research and technologies; information and communication technologies; and geosciences and marine sciences, will be considered.
This is a bilateral mobility call, and the lead organisation from each country must submit an application to their respective Government. The Australian and German assessment processes will be consistent and coordinated. The following information applies to Australian applicants only. German project partners should contact the International Bureau of the Federal Government Ministry for Education and Research (contact details below) for further information on how to apply.
