SELECTED PROJECTS


Projects 2022

Upon recommendation by the CELSA Evaluation Committee, the CELSA Board selects yearly 10-12 collaborative research projects that are financed with means of the CELSA Research Fund. The purpose is to set up new scientific collaborations between researchers from the CELSA partners. Projects are funded for two years and serve as a leverage towards European Commission competitive funding programmes, such as Horizon 2020.
