Zusammenfassung
The proposals will be assessed in competition with other proposals received in the same submission window by one of the agencies that will serve as the lead agency. It is important to note that there are no separate funds available for these efforts; proposals must compete with all other proposals within the programmes opened to the lead agency activity and must succeed on the strengths of their scientific quality and originality. From the viewpoint of the DFG, this is a special case of the DFG’s individual research grants programme (Sachbeihilfe), with a few additional provisions. The result of the review process will be shared between the agencies to make final decisions on this basis. Support will be granted for those proposals with both DFG and NSF recommendation for funding. Proposals selected for funding will be funded by the NSF on the US side and by the DFG on the German side. Researchers are to acknowledge both the NSF and the DFG in any reports or publications arising from the grant.
The pursuit of scientific goals recognises no geographic boundaries and as such, international collaborations are more the norm than the exception nowadays. To facilitate the support of collaborative work between US groups and their German counterparts, the National Science Foundation’s (NSF) Physics Division (PHY) and the DFG’s Physics and Chemistry division have recently agreed on a joint lead-agency process for projects in the area of Physics.
Bedingungen
Proposals where the DFG is the lead agency can be submitted on a continuous basis. For proposals where the lead agency is the NSF, please refer to the NSF-Physics Division for specific timing of deadlines.
