RCN Researcher Project calls 2022

Each year, the Research Council of Norway (RCN) has a call for Researcher Projects, inviting researchers from all fields to apply for funding to deliver new insights, advance research frontiers, promote scientific careers, establish and broaden international cooperation, facilitate excellent researcher training and more. With a deadline on 2 February 2022, researchers can apply in one of the following categories: Researcher Project for Scientific Renewal, Researcher Project for Young Research Talents, or Three-year Researcher Project with International Mobility. All of these calls come with a different set of (eligibility) requirements. During the seminar, we will go through the main characteristics of each call and make you aware of the most important specificities. We will finish the seminar with a Q&A session with successful grantees, Professor Lilya Budaghyan (Selmer Center), Researcher Mateus de Oliveira Oliveira (Algorithms), Professor Tom Michoel (Computational Biology Unit), and Professor Susanna Röblitz (Computational Biology Unit).

The seminar will be hosted by Stefanie Meyer, research coordinator at the Department of Informatics. Stefanie has worked as a research advisor for third funding for the past 6 years and has a broad overview over different local, national, and international funding bodies (including RCN, Trond Mohn Foundation, ERC, Marie Skłodowska Curie Actions).
