Joint Call CESAB- sDiv SYNERGY: Coexistence and stability high-diversity communities
Proposal deadline has passed (15 Nov 2019)
final decisions due January 2020
CESAB and sDiv are the synthesis centers of the French FRB (Foundation for Research on Biodiversity) and German iDiv (German Centre for Integrative Biodiversity Research). These two centers offer to host groups of researchers to work on a better use of existing data, information and knowledge to foster theoretical, and synthetic thinking in biodiversity research.
They are now proposing a joint call called “synergy” to fund two theory driven groups of 5-7 researchers (4 meetings per group) that will share their meetings between the two centers.
The main topic of the call will be “Coexistence and stability in high-diversity communities”.
You will find the detailed information about the call on the website of the FRB.
