These may apply for grants for research infrastructure 2019
It is now clear which new areas and existing research infrastructures are covered by the call for grants to research infrastructure of national interest. The call is open during the period 2 December 2020–16 February 2021.
In total, 32 areas and existing research infrastructure are covered by the call for grants to research infrastructure of national interest:
- All new areas graded as A1 in the needs inventory 2019–2020.
- Most of the areas graded as A2.
- All existing research infrastructures where the grant period ends in 2021 or 2022.
It will also be possible to apply for additional grants to fund increased Swedish engagement in international infrastructures where Sweden is already a member, for example in the form of in-kind grants.
The Government budget bill for 2021 proposes increased investment in research infrastructure. The additional funding means that the call can also cover most of the areas graded as A2 in the prioritisation.
“The additional funding made available means that we can take care of and benefit fully from the investments already made, and also equip Swedish research for future challenges. This is incredibly gratifying and longed-for,” says Björn Halleröd, Secretary General for research infrastructure at the Swedish Research Council.
The call for grants to research infrastructure opens on 2 December
Please note that the opening date has changed from 13 January 2021 to 2 December 2020!
