The Board of Directors of the FNRS has decided to extend the deadline for validation of Exceptional Research Project (PER) applications to Monday 13 July at 14:00 (Belgian local time) instead of Tuesday 7 July at 14:00, in order to give research teams more time to prepare and submit their applications.

For reasons of administrative organisation, the FNRS Board of Directors has also decided to postpone the starting date of the projects, initially scheduled for 1 September 2020, to 1 October 2020.

Consequently, it is requested to verify that the information recorded in the applications, in particular the staff positions applied for, complies with this new starting date.

Our services remain at your disposal for any further information you may require.
