Calls for 2027 announced

The Czech Science Foundation (GA ČR) has announced calls for the submission of project proposals under the Standard and International Projects, Postdoc Individual Fellowship, and Return Grants schemes.
The EXPRO and Junior Star calls will be launched at the beginning of March.

❗ For this year’s calls, the rules on concurrent submission and implementation of new projects have been revised compared with previous rounds.

🛠 Proposal preparation

• If you are interested in submitting a project, please contact Radomíra Gromešová - she will provide all necessary information, including contacts for the project manager and HR representative.
• Colleagues will continuously check projects directly in GRIS, so we ask you to assign the role of administrator to the user "podporaLFMU" (GRIS - in the lower part of the home page of the created project, list the user "podporaLFMU" among Users and assign him the role "Project Administrator").
