BILAT-USA 4.0 | European Union and the United States of America
According to the European Commission, Horizon 2020 is the biggest EU Research and Innovation programme ever with nearly €80 billion of funding available over 7 years (2014 to 2020) – in addition to the private investment that this money will attract. It promises more breakthroughs, discoveries and world-firsts by taking great ideas from the lab to the market. EU member states are automatically eligible to compete for funding. Non-EU RLS partners can participate in Horizon 2020 either by providing a unique competence that cannot be found in the EU, or through bilateral agreements between their home countries and the European Union. Every RLS member state has these types of agreements. In the United States, this agreement is called BILAT-USA 4.0. The new BILAT USA 4.0 project, funded by the European Union, has started on 1 February 2016. BILAT USA 4.0 continues activities started by the predecessor project BILAT USA 2.0 with the overall aim to enhance, support and further develop the research and innovation cooperation between the European Union and the United States of America. A particular focus of the project activities will be put among others on an intensification of interactions between EU and US researchers and innovators, the support for the improvement of research and innovation framework conditions, the provision of analyses delivering a sound base for decision making and an enhanced coordination and synergies between different EU MS/AC and US policies and programmes. The EU and the USA have highly-productive, immensely-innovative and excellence-driven research and innovation systems. Acknowledging the particular strengths of each landscape, a balanced transatlantic STI partnership of equals bears great potential and contributes to the ultimate goal of tackling societal challenges and boost economic competitiveness. International cooperation between power nodes results in a constant knowledge exchange and more efficient use of STI investment. Visit the BILAT-USA 4.0 website here.

Grant Opportunities for Academic Liaison with Industry (GOALI) | National Science Foundation
Deadline: Call ongoing- submissions accepted at anytime Value: $500 000 for US participants, timeline project dependent GOALI promotes university-industry partnerships by making project funds or fellowships/traineeships available to support industry-university linkages. Special interest is focused on:
The program targets high-risk/high-gain research with a focus on fundamental research, new approaches to solving generic problems, development of innovative collaborative industry-university educational programs, and direct transfer of new knowledge between academia and industry. GOALI seeks to fund transformative research that lies beyond that which industry would normally fund. Funds cannot be shared with industry partners- they may only be used by the academic institutions. Collaborators in institutions outside the US must seek funding from their respective funding organizations. International collaborations that strengthen proposed project activities are encouraged, when there is an opportunity for coordinated funding with colleagues from foreign institutions who will add value to the project. This program will support the US-based scientists and their students. Proposals for international collaborations will be evaluated on the value that they add to the domestic research proposed. NSF requires that proposals with international collaborations include the following: description of the collaboration; discussion of US and foreign contributions to the project; costs of travel to work with foreign partners; costs for students to travel overseas for short or extended visits in foreign laboratories; foreign collaborators' biographical sketches (CVs); and documentation of their agreement to collaborate on the proposed project, as well as the means by which they will support their part of the work.

Accelerating Research through International Network-to-Network Collaborations (AccelNet) | National Science Foundation
Deadlines: Letter of Intent October 30, 2019; Full Proposal Deadline Date January 31, 2020 Funding: Catalytic: up to 3 years; total budget up to 750,000 USD; Full Scale Implementation: up to 5 years; total budget up to 2 million USD The goals of the Accelerating Research through International Network-to-Network Collaborations (AccelNet) program are to accelerate the process of scientific discovery and prepare the next generation of U.S. researchers for multiteam international collaborations. The AccelNet program supports strategic linkages among U.S. research networks and complementary networks abroad that will leverage research and educational resources to tackle grand scientific challenges that require significant coordinated international efforts. The program seeks to foster high-impact science and engineering by providing opportunities to create new collaborations and new combinations of resources and ideas among linked global networks. This solicitation invites proposals for the creation of international networks of networks in research areas aligned either with one of the NSF Big Ideas or a community-identified scientific challenge with international dimensions. AccelNet awards are meant to support the connections among research networks, rather than supporting fundamental research as the primary activity. Each network of networks is expected to engage in innovative collaborative activities that promote synergy of efforts across the networks and provide professional development for students, postdoctoral scholars, and early-career researchers. Through AccelNet, NSF is also interested in promoting innovative ideas for effective international collaboration in general, including but not limited to, novel networking strategies, scholar exchange, collaborative technologies, development or implementation of community standards for data and metadata, or the collaborative use of equipment, instrumentation, infrastructure, and other resources. AccelNet is aimed at fostering connections needed among research networks to address pressing scientific challenges, thereby fostering discovery, rather than supporting primarily research or research infrastructure. Examples of supported activities to foster such connections include, but are not limited to, conferences, meetings, personnel exchanges, interdisciplinary training, data exchanges, synthesis efforts, and the adoption of existing cyber tools to enable linkages between the U.S. network and counterpart networks in other countries or regions. Proposals will be accepted at two distinct levels: Catalytic (up to 3 years; total budget up to $750,000) – Networks of networks at the catalytic level may either be nascent in nature or be more established but have a limited-term goal. The nascent nature may be in terms of the maturity of the U.S. networks or the international networks, or the level of connectivity among the networks. Catalytic projects proposed by nascent networks of networks may focus on community building and linkages, such as exploring common missions and goals, developing gap analyses and logic models, exchanging ideas, people, and resources, or establishing a community of practice. Catalytic projects proposed by more established networks should have a specific, limited-term goal which, if accomplished, has the potential to catalyze a breakthrough for the network of networks, such as a specific research approach, networking strategy, or collaborative technology. Full-Scale Implementation (up to 5 years; total budget up to $2 million) – Full-Scale Implementation networks of networks are envisioned as consisting of a core of networks in the U.S. and abroad that are operational, have established an understanding of the status of the research and researchers across their fields, and are well-positioned to engage each other to advance research. Examples of the types of activities that projects at the Full-Scale Implementation level could undertake include, but are not limited to, coordinating goals among networks, developing and disseminating products and practices, engaging in synthesis efforts to integrate and transfer knowledge, and expanding effective professional development activities for students and postdoctoral scholars in international networks.

(Please note this call is currently closed) Funding: Dependent on stream and application. Please see below. The International Research Experiences for Students (IRES) program supports international research and research-related activities for U.S. science and engineering students. The IRES program contributes to development of a diverse, globally-engaged workforce with world-class skills. IRES focuses on active research participation by undergraduate or graduate students in high quality international research, education and professional development experiences in NSF-funded research areas. The overarching, long-term goal of the IRES program is to enhance U.S. leadership in research and education and to strengthen economic competitiveness through training the next generation of research leaders. This solicitation features three mechanisms; proposers are required to select one of the following tracks to submit their proposal. Track I focuses on the development of world-class research skills in international cohort experiences. Track II is dedicated to targeted, intensive learning and training opportunities that leverage international knowledge at the frontiers of research. Track III calls for U.S. institutional partnerships and coalitions to develop and evaluate innovative models for high-impact, large-scale international research and professional development experiences for graduate students, as individuals or groups. (1) IRES - Track I: IRES Sites (IS) projects engage a group of undergraduate and/or graduate students in active high quality collaborative research at an international site with mentorship from researchers at a host lab. IRES Sites must be organized around a coherent intellectual theme that may involve a single discipline or multiple disciplines funded by NSF. (2) IRES - Track II: Advanced Studies Institutes (ASI) are intensive short courses with related activities that engage advanced graduate students in active learning and research at the frontiers of knowledge. ASIs typically range in length from ten to twenty-one days and must be held outside the United States. ASIs must have a compelling rationale for their international location and should involve distinguished active researchers in the target field from the U.S. and abroad. ASIs should enable students to develop skills and broaden professional networks, leveraging international participation and complementary resources (expertise, facilities, data, field site, etc.) for mutual benefit. (3) IRES - Track III: New Concepts in International Graduate Experience (IGE) projects propose, implement, and evaluate creative ideas for catalyzing the development of globally engaged U.S. scientists and engineers at the graduate student level. The IGE IRES track invites professional societies and organizations in the U.S. directly associated with science and engineering education or research activities to propose innovative large-scale programs to provide high-quality international research and/or research-related professional development experiences for U.S. graduate students as individuals or groups. The proposed experiences should enhance transferable skills and expand professional networks. Graduate students recruited from a broad, diverse applicant pool should travel to non-U.S. locations for periods of several weeks to a semester for immersive experiences under the mentorship of appropriate collaborators in the U.S. and foreign locations. The proposed international professional development model may focus on research or research-related activities in any NSF-funded area(s). Proposals that utilize, leverage and potentially expand existing global networks and infrastructure are encouraged. Student participants supported by IRES funds must be citizens, nationals, or permanent residents of the United States. Students do not apply directly to NSF to participate in IRES activities but rather to NSF-funded investigators who receive IRES awards. Track- I: Up to $300,000 per award. Track- II: As appropriate. Typically, an average ASI budget is $150,000 per award. Proposals involving a series of institutes are permitted when well-justified. Track- III: Up to $1,000,000 per award. Learn more here. |
