The Project Office supports the preparation of proposals/applications for three types of activities:
-
GRANTS = team projects
- the proposed project requires a research team, collaboration with one of more teams from one or more institutions possible
- usually supports research activities (money for research, investments)
- time of realisation usually 1 or more years
-
FELLOWSHIPS = individual projects
- submitted and realised only by the applicant
- usually supports only mobility of the researcher – researcher going abroad or researcher from abroad coming to Czechia
- short term (weeks to months) or long term (year/s) stays
-
AWARDS/PRIZES = nominations of a person/team
- nomination of a person (exceptionally a team)
- awarded based on already achieved results, not on the project proposal
- some nominations require approval by the IOCB Board
