With an aim to increase the international visibility of Hungarian scientific results the NRDI Office has announced a new call for proposals to promote researchers and research groups whose findings have major international impact.
- The call, which has a total budget of HUF 1 billion financed from the National Research, Development and Innovation Fund, aims to help domestic research groups with internationally recognised scientific achievements to produce further results significantly contributing to the development of their scientific field and laying the groundwork for further research by implementing their project in a Hungarian host institution and by presenting such results in scientific forums ensuring the greatest possible visibility. The “Funding for research groups with significant achievements having an international impact” (KH_17) call is open to researchers and research groups who have a research facility in Hungary and who published original research findings after 1 January 2014 achieving a citation index accounting for the top 5 percent in the given field of science within two years from the date of publication.
- The call completes the NRDI Office’s calls promoting discovery research which were announced in January 2017 with new funding schemes and an increased total budget of HUF 12 billion.
