The Faculty of Forest Sciences is partner in a new EU-financed research and innovation staff exchange.
This new EU-financed research and innovation staff exchange is potential funding for research visits to a number of universities in North and South America. Professor Lars Östlund at FEM is responsible for the program at SLU.
A very short description of the program – more details in the attached document:
- SLU researchers who are doing research which connects to the program are eligible for a travel grant (including cost of travel and money for accommodation etc).
- SLU researchers can go to the following universities/organisations:
- Instituto Sistemas Complejos de Ingeniería (ISCI), Chile
- US Forest Service (USDA), US
- Centro Agronómico Tropical de Investigación Y Enseñanza (CATIE), Costa Rica
- The Pennsylvania State University (PSU), USA
- Pontificia Universidad Católica De Chile (PUC), Chile
- University of Washington (UW), USA
- Universidad de São Paulo (USP), Brazil
- University Laval (Ulaval), Canada
- Universite du Quebec (UQAM), Canada
- Forest Bioengineering Solutions (FBS)
- Relatively simple administration regarding such exchange: (letter of invitation and brief reports on your research visit)
- If you are interested and before you contact Lars Östlund with questions – read the entire attached documents!
Hope many of you take this chance now that we hopefully are out of the pandemia. Great chance to establish and develop now research collaboration!
