Events in Physics

The British Council invites applications for its researcher grants to support UK-Israel collaboration. Funding supports researchers or research groups looking to hold academic meetings as a seed for future UK-Israel academic collaboration. This aims to strengthen academic collaboration between the UK and Israel in the following priority sectors: •nanoscience — research related to nano technologies and materials, including medicine, toxicology, particles, electronics, metrology, molecular and green technology;•neuroscience — research related to neurosciences, including physiology, anatomy, pharmacology, cognitive, computational, engineering, imaging and physics;•agriscience — research related to agriscience includingbiotechnology, agronomy, soil-sciences, genetics and chemistry;•water science — research related to water science including irrigation, pollutants, hydrology, purification, groundwater, sanitation, wastewater treatment and climate change adaptation as it pertains to water resources;•cyber — research related to cyber technologies, includingcomputer science, engineering, algorithms, information security and cryptography;•antimicrobial resistance — research related to AMR biology, medicine, engineering, genomics and computational methods.UK and Israeli applicants based at officially recognised HEIs may apply. Proposals must include a UK-Israel meeting in the form of a symposium/workshop for at least two working days.Grants are worth between £4,500 and £8,500 depending on the size of the event and the required amount of co-funding.
