Australia-Germany Researcher Mobility Call 2010/11
The Australian Academy of Science, on behalf of the Department of Innovation, Industry, Science and Research, has awarded scientific grants totalling $260,365 to fourteen leading Australian research groups to participate in Australia-Germany Researcher Mobility projects.
This funding will contribute to travel and research costs during the initial stages (between 1 July 2010 and 30 June 2011) of a collaborative research project.
The Australia-Germany Researcher Mobility Call 2010/11is a one-off funding source to facilitate bilateral research projects.
The Australian Government is providing this support through the Australia-Europe Research Collaboration Fund of the International Science Linkages (ISL) program. Further information on the ISL program is at http://grants.innovation.gov.au
