Print

The FNRS, in partnership with « The National Natural Science Foundation of China - NSFC », is pleased to announce the results of the call launched in March 2023 under the PINT-BILAT-M instrument (bilateral research mobility projects).

Congratulations to the promoters of the selected projects, and in particular to:

29 applications were submitted for scientific evaluation by the FNRS and the NSFC (China), and the agencies jointly selected 11 projects for funding, details of which are given in the table below.

Each team funded by the FNRS will receive a maximum of €15,000 over a two-year period to finance travel, scientific workshops/conferences and, possibly, operating costs. The projects will be carried out in collaboration with Chinese teams, which will be funded by the NSFC (China).
