Major call in Swedish-Taiwanese research

The Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research (SSF) and the National Science and Technology Council (NSTC) are jointly investing in a program for Swedish and Taiwanese researchers. More than SEK 70 million is allocated to ten strategic collaboration projects of the highest international class. The grants are given over five years and will go to joint research projects with associated seminars, conferences and workshops, as well as the exchange of researchers between the participating groups. To be considered for funding, the proposed research project must fall within strategic areas including 6G, AI, biotechnology for precision medicine, drones/robots, green energy, semiconductors, quantum science, marine and ocean exploration, neuroscience, or space. A Swedish and a Taiwanese project leader must write a joint application with a description of the proposed research collaboration, project participants and budget.
