NSF Supplemental Travel Funding to Europe

Research Collaboration Opportunity in Europe for NSF Recipients

To further scientific and technological cooperation between the United States and the European Community, the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the European Research Council (ERC) are supporting U.S.-based scientists and engineers with active NSF awards, particularly those early in their careers, to pursue research collaboration with European colleagues supported through EU-funded ERC grants.

This opportunity provides up to $20,000 in supplemental funding for research visits to any identified, appropriate ERC-funded European research group. This opportunity is open only to PIs and co-PIs of active NSF awards and funding may be used to support travel for the PI, co-PI, postdocs, other Senior Personnel, and graduate students funded on the award. Requests must be received at NSF at least 3 months prior to the proposed visit, but no later than May 17, 2024, for consideration using Fiscal Year 2024 funds.
