Convergent Research Themes Program
Call for Proposals
翱惫别谤惫颈别飞:听Convergent research crosses disciplinary boundaries to tackle challenging problems that require ambitious solutions. The purpose of this program is to support 涩里番 researchers in exploring new collaborations, as well as building and empowering multidisciplinary teams to work on converging research topics in which computational and data systems are central. Ultimately the aim is to help position 涩里番 teams to pursue external sources of funding in areas of major (inter)national importance.
