EU-US Workshop at GaTech Nov 17-18
A workshop on internationalization of research and graduate studies will be held at Georgia Tech in Atlanta on 17-18 Nov 2008, co-organized by the European Commission, French Embassy, NSF and Georgia Tech. It will provide a forum for research leaders, policy-makers, and scientists to discuss issues related to researchers' mobility and transatlantic collaborations. More information can be found at: http://www.dlpe.gatech.edu/EUUS-Workshop/. Janez Potocnik, EU Commissioner for Science & Research, and Valérie Pécresse, French Minister for Higher Education & Research, will address participants via video. Among the speakers are Peter Agre, Nobel Prize Winner, Arden Bement, NSF Director, and Nina Fedoroff, Science Adviser to the Secretary of State.
International Collaboration & OISE Cofunding
In addition to the solicitations listed below, investigators may also include international components in new proposals submitted to any relevant NSF program, or request supplemental funding for projects already supported by NSF. Investigators should consult early in the application process with both the disciplinary program manager and OISE country program manager. OISE works with all NSF areas to co-fund new awards and supplements that meet these criteria: - True intellectual collaboration with foreign research partner (Foreign partner's 2-pg biosketch & communication outlining project role must be included. If foreign institution will provide resources, also include an endorsement letter from the foreign institution.)
- New international collaborations, as opposed to well-established ones;
- Clear benefit to U.S. science/engineering community from expertise, facilities, or resources of the foreign collaborator; and
- Active research engagement of U.S. students and junior researchers at the foreign site.
