Description
The International Brain Research Organization (IBRO) runs Collaborative Research Grants to foster international scientific partnerships involving emerging research groups. The program supports collaborations between two emerging groups or between an emerging group and an established group, helping researchers develop expertise, access resources, and strengthen research capacity.
Funding covers the practical costs of working together across countries, including travel, accommodation, subsistence, and research expenses. Projects must include bi-directional exchanges by principal investigators, postdoctoral researchers, and/or students working on the proposed scientific collaboration. Regional rules determine whether partners may collaborate within the same IBRO region or must work across regions. For US/Canada applicants, inter-regional partnerships are preferred, while qualifying US–Canada partnerships must clearly demonstrate benefits to the emerging group.
