FUNDS AVAILABLE FOR SHORT VISITS TO THE SWEDISH MUSEUM OF
NATURAL HISTORY (NATURHISTORISKA RIKSMUSEET, NRM)
Fourth and last call
We have the opportunity to offer economic support to scientists who wish to
use the collections and/or other research facilities at NRM. The resources
are made available through the European Commission's "Improving the
Human Research Potential and the Socio-economic Knowledge Base" (IHP)
scheme. Our programme at NRM, entitled "Access to Naturhistoriska
Riksmuseet - High Latitude" (HIGH LAT), will run until 29 February 2004.
HIGH LAT funded visits to NRM will have to be accomplished by this date.
The grant enables us to meet international travel and accommodation costs
for visiting scientists. The last call for applications is opened. There are a
number of terms and conditions associated with this opportunity, as outlined
below. If you are interested in applying for support, or are uncertain about
whether you are eligible, please visit our website (http://www.nrm.se/highlat/)
or contact the project manager (highlat at nrm.se).
1) To be eligible you must conduct your research in a EU Member State or
Associated State (http://www.nrm.se/highlat/conditions.html). Scientists
working in Sweden are not eligible for support under the HIGH LAT
programme. 2) A formal application must be made. Please read the
Application Guidelines (http://www.nrm.se/highlat/applguide.html) before
completing the Application Form (http://www.nrm.se/highlat/application.html).
The next and last deadline for submission of applications is 6 June 2003. 3)
Priority will be given to scientists who have not previously used our facilities
and who are working in regions of the EU where few such research
infrastructures exist.
We hope that many of you will see this as a chance to visit the Swedish
Museum of Natural History, utilising collections and other facilities that have
not previously been available to you.
