ESF to launch 15 Research Netowrk Programmes in 2008
The European Science Foundation announced that all 15 ESF Research Networking Programmes (RNP), which were recommended from the 2006 Call and subsequently forwarded to Member Organisations for consideration for à la carte funding in the course of 2007, will be launched in 2008.
As 132 proposals were reviewed under the 2006 Call, this represents a global success rate of just over 11 percent, compared to 9 percent last year (89 proposals received in 2005). While the increase may seem modest it should be noted that the call of contributions itself results in almost twice as many proposals launched, i.e. 15 versus 8 in 2007, attributing to the interests and supports from the Member Organisations.
