The European Science Foundation (ESF) has announced a call for outline proposals (concrete ideas) for scientific programmes in the physical and engineering sciences, which, it says, are currently underrepresented within its scheme. ESF scientific programmes are networking activities which bring together key researchers or research groups for approximately four or five years to address a major scientific issue at European level. Key objectives are to achieve added and synergistic value to both national and Europe-wide research. The funding is particularly intended to assist researchers involved in long-term research in the engineering sciences, although outstanding proposals from other domains of the physical and technical sciences will also be considered.
