The joint call for São Paulo Researchers in International Collaboration (FAPESP SPRINT) builds on our successful partnerships in Latin America and the research connections our academics have forged with colleagues in Brazil.
The FAPESP-SPRINT award provides seed funding for collaborative research at the initial project stage or additional funding to improve ongoing research projects. University of Bath researchers can apply for up to £5,000 per year, for projects running for a maximum of two consecutive years. Funding for the partner researcher is matched by FAPESP.
The grant is to be used for the exchange of researchers, visits for research planning, participation in workshops, and initial data collection activities to maintain research collaboration and its consolidation.
