Take Advantage of APN’s Advisory Service for Your Proposal Development—Send a Letter of Intent by 24 June 2011

 

The APN is inviting proposals under its ARCP and CAPaBLE Programmes for funding from April 2012. During the Calls for Proposals process, the APN Secretariat provides voluntary Advisory Service to give advice on the appropriateness of the proposals and to assist young scientists in seeking collaborators in the region. Proponents are encouraged to take advantage of the Advisory Service in developing their proposals.

To receive advisory feedback from the APN, please send a Letter of Intent via Email to the APN Secretariat by Friday, 24th June 2011. A template of the Letter of Intent can be downloaded here (MS Word File).
