The ONR Global may award one grant or multiple grants. The number of grants and amounts of funding for each grant will depend on the proposals submitted.
Potential Technical Disciplines:
- Physics, especially Quantum (including theoretical)
- Quantum optics / Quantum sensing
- Biological Sciences/Technology / Earth science
- Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning
- Signal processing
- Synthetic biology
- Power and energy
- Sensors and sense-making
The initial research abstracts will be sent to the e-mail address: rihova@kav.cas.cz (Ms Markéta Říhová, Division of International Cooperation, CAS).
The deadline for submission of the initial research abstracts is 5 August 2022.
