SUMMARY OF PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS General Information Program Title: Collaborative Research in Computational Neuroscience (CRCNS) Innovative Approaches to Science and Engineering Research on Brain Function Synopsis of Program: Computational neuroscience provides a theoretical foundation and a rich set of technical approaches for understanding complex neurobiological systems, building on the theory, methods, and findings of computer science, neuroscience, and numerous other disciplines. Through the CRCNS program, the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), National Institutes of Health (NIH), and Department of Energy (DOE); the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung, BMBF); the French National Research Agency (Agence Nationale de la Recherche, ANR); the United States-Israel Binational Science Foundation (BSF); Japan’s National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT); and Spain’s State Research Agency (Agencia Estatal de Investigación, AEI) and National Institute of Health Carlos III (Instituto de Salud Carlos III, ISCIII) support collaborative activities that will advance the understanding of nervous system structure and function, mechanisms underlying nervous system disorders, and computational strategies used by the nervous system. Two classes of proposals will be considered in response to this solicitation: Research Proposals describing collaborative research projects, and Data Sharing Proposals to enable sharing of data and other resources. Domestic and international projects will be considered. As detailed in the solicitation, international components of collaborative projects may 2 be funded in parallel by the participating agencies. Specific CRCNS opportunities for parallel funding are available for bilateral US-German Research Proposals, US-German Data Sharing Proposals, US-French Research Proposals, US-French Data Sharing Proposals, US-Israeli Research Proposals, US-Israeli Data Sharing Proposals, US-Japanese Research Proposals, US-Japanese Data Sharing Proposals, US- Spanish Research Proposals, US-Spanish Data Sharing Proposals, and multilateral proposals involving the United States and two or more CRCNS partner countries (see Section VIII of the solicitation for country-specific limitations). Collaborating PIs from outside of the United States are referred to Section VIII of the solicitation for further instructions about applying to the appropriate partner funding agency. Appropriate scientific areas of investigations may be related to the interests of any of the participating funding organizations. Questions concerning a particular project's focus, direction, and relevance to a participating funding organization should be addressed to the appropriate person in the list of agency contacts found in Section VIII of the solicitation. NSF will coordinate and manage the review of proposals jointly with participating domestic and foreign funding organizations, through a joint panel review process used by all participating funders. Additional information is available in Section VI of the solicitation. Community-driven efforts such as workshops or synthesis papers are also encouraged, to map out new frontiers at the interface of neuroscience and other disciplines that could reshape brain research and its applications.

    Press Release No.1480 January 8, 2021 Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST) 5-3, Yonbancho, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo 102-8666 URL https://www.jst.go.jp/EN JST to Fund 6 Projects in EIG CONCERT-Japan within the Framework of the Strategic International Collaborative Research Program (SICORP) JST (President, Hamaguchi Michinari) has approved funding new joint research project (details in Attachment 1) in the research field of “ICT for Resilient, Safe and Secure Society”, in collaboration with 10 funding agencies from 10 European countries (Attachment 2) in the framework of the EIG CONCERT- Japan under SICORP *1. EIG CONCERT-Japan is an international joint initiative to support and enhance science, technology and innovation (STI) cooperation between Japan and European countries (Attachment 3). In 2020, the seventh Joint Call was conducted from May18 to July 17 in the research field of “ICT for Resilient, Safe and Secure Society”, to which a total of 21 proposals was submitted. Following in depth evaluation by the Scientific Committee Meeting (Attachment 4) and subsequent discussion among funding agencies that participated in the Joint Call, it has been decided that JST will jointly fund the 6 projects. The period of support is to last for 3 years, during which Japan side researchers in each project receive up to 18 million JPY in total. *1 EIG CONCERT-Japan: The CONCERT-Japan was funded by the European Union (EU) as one of their international cooperation activities within the ERA-NET (European Research Area Network) of the Seventh Framework Programme for Research and Technology Development (FP7). Its continuation, the EIG CONCERT-Japan project, aims to further develop existing cooperation between European countries and Japan by promoting and enabling effective collaboration in science and technology research.

  • Council of Ministers Government Approves Creation of State Research Agency Moncloa Palace, Madrid, Friday 27 November 2015
    Council of Ministers Government approves creation of State Research Agency Moncloa Palace, Madrid, Friday 27 November 2015 The Council of Ministers approved the creation of the State Research Agency, which responds to a demand from the scientific community contained in the Science, Technology and Innovation Act 2011. The Vice-President of the Government, Soraya Sáenz de Santamaría, highlighted that its aim is to "foster research and the development of innovation in Spain", and that it constitutes "one of the most significant reforms of this legislature in this field". The Minister for Economic Affairs and Competition, Luis de Guindos, added that the main goal of the agency "is to ensure more effective and more flexible funding of research while guaranteeing its control and a strict system of accountability". The agency will provide greater stability to public subsidies for R&D, explained Luis de Guindos, because it will enable multi-year planning of its resources and will have "an independent evaluation system adapted to best international practices". This evaluation will be carried out taking into account the results obtained from the funding provided to the different research plans. It will also lead to a reduction in administrative burdens which, according to the minister, "will result in a much more flexible interaction between researchers". Luis de Guindos highlighted that the agency will receive funding from both the General State Budget and from the private sector. He said that "its structure will also be very simple and with zero cost". In this regard, he specified that it will have 300 professionals from the State Secretariat for R&D+i, and it will manage "approximately 75% of all the non-financial credit resources" provided to the agency.
