Call for proposals for Nanoscience, Nanotechnologies, Materials and New production Technologies - Coordinated call EU - Japan 2013

The European Commission has published a call for proposals entitled 'NMP - Coordinated call EU-Japan 2013'. It is part of the latest set of calls published under the EU's Seventh Framework Programme (FP7).

Topics

Under the Nanoscience, Nanotechnologies, Materials and New Production Technologies (NMP) theme, the call provides incentives to coordinated projects for the development of new materials for the substitution of critical metals. Successful applicants will receive funding from the EU and the Japanese funding agency respectively.

The projects should focus on the interplay between theory and/or large scale computational screening and experimental methods. They should include the synthesis or fabrication of nano or microstructures as well as an analysis of their effects and they can also address the recyclability of the materials. Close collaboration between Japanese and European partners is mandatory. 

Publication Date: 10 July 2012

Budget: € 5 000 000

Deadline:  23 October 2012 at 17:00:00 (Brussels local time)
