Ukrainian Initiative: Inviting experts for collaboration

Recently, Ukraine has established the National Research Foundation of Ukraine (NRFU), which is going to be the largest research funding body in Ukraine. Currently, NRFU is preparing to announce the first call at the beginning of May 2020.

Launching the new approach in National Research Funding, they intend to implement the Best Practices in Research Conduct and arrange independent international peer-review procedure. The Scientific Board of NRFU, kindly asks researchers/experts to join the pool of potential Referees for upcoming project calls.

This would not put any immediate obligations on researchers/experts. The actual assignment of Referees to research proposals will be performed by the review panel with regard to the specific call for proposals.
