How it Works
Building our international networks has never been more important and the International Coffee Break @ RIS is here to help!
Just sign up via our new RIS-Partnerships Platform to be connected for 15-minute coffee breaks online, and have the kind of conversations that can, just sometimes, lead to something really interesting.
Why Scotland and Germany?
This initiative runs between Scotland and a priority partner for both Scottish and UK Governments – Germany.
With plenty of research funding opportunities available from UKRI, Innovate UK, BBSRC and others, now is a great time to be making new connections with academics in Germany and seeding new collaborations.
As well as large-scale jointly funded programmes there are opportunities for smaller grants and initiatives to support mobility, exchanges and new partnerships.
Check out SULSA’s information session with the German Research Foundation (DFG) and German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) below.
