Collaborative projects with ALBA

The Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory (ALBA) is receiving proposals for collaborative projects between Portuguese research centers or universities and scientific areas at ALBA (Spain) until January 25. This action comes under the scope of the Collaboration Agreement between FCT and ALBA, established in February 2019, and was recently announced at the scientific meeting held on December 17.

The agreement between FCT and ALBA aims to promote scientific collaboration between the two countries, in the spirit of improving scientific and technical exchange, developing joint projects and facilitating access to scientific instrumentation in the institutions considered by the two scientific communities. This agreement created the conditions for collaboration and the various possible lines of activity, among which is the creation of a joint Post-Doctoral Program that includes the funding of 4 Portuguese post-doctoral researchers, in the ALBA infrastructure, who will be involved in collaborative projects between Portuguese research centers or universities and ALBA's scientific areas.

To submit proposals, those interested should consult the description of this action and the template to fill in for submitting projects. More information is available by email: bcalisto@cells.es.
