JOINT RUSSIAN-MONGOLIAN RESEARCH PROJECT COMPETITION 2010

The RFBR and the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science of Mongolia have announced the 2010 joint project competition (Competition ‘MONG_A’) for obtaining financial support for conduct of the basic research in the following sciences:
(01) Mathematics, Information Science and Mechanics;
(02) Physics and Astronomy;
(03) Chemistry and Material Sciences;
(04) Biology and Medicine;
(05) Geosciences;
(06) Human and Social Sciences;
Competition ‘MONG_A’ is performed in compliance to the rules of the pilot research project competition 2010 (Competition ‘à’).
The Russian and Mongolian scientists – the participants of the projects on Competition ‘MONG_A’ – preliminarily agree upon the content of their applications. The project title must be the same for both the Russian and Mongolian applications. The Russian scientists send their applications to the RFBR and the Mongolian scientists simultaneously – to the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science of Mongolia (MECSM) in compliance to the application submission rules adopted by the RFBR and MECSM, correspondingly.
All applications allowed for the competition are to be independently examined in a parallel way: the Mongolian scientists’ applications – at the MECSM and the Russian scientists’ applications – at the RFBR. The consideration of the applications is to be carried out by each party independently in compliance to its own rules. The competition results are to be summed up jointly by the parties by 15 March 2010 based on the examination results and in accordance with the competition budget. The list of the projects supported by both parties will be published at the RFBR website.
Only those applications are to be accepted for consideration drawn up with the help of the interactive (via the Internet) ‘Grant-Express’ system within the period from 20 August to 30 September 2009. After obtaining of a registration number, the Project Manager must submit one printed application copy to the RFBR until 10 October 2009.
The financing of those projects supported by both parties are to be carried out in 2010-2011 as follows: the RFBR pays the costs related to the project implementation by the Russian scientists and the MECSM – by the Mongolian scientists. In the annual estimate of the costs for the project implementation, inter alia, the costs for the Russian scientists’ trips to Mongolia can be provided, including the international and local trips, per diem expenses for accommodation and lodging, in accordance with the prescribed standards. The RFBR funds can also be used for paying for the Mongolian scientists’ (the project partners) stay in Russia.
The maximum volume of the annual financing of the supported project per a team of the Russian scientists is up to 600 000 rubles.
The decision on continuing the project financing for next year is to be taken by the results of examination of the interim reports. The period of submission of the interim reports – 1 March 2011, as well as of the final reports – 1 March 2012. The fixed periods and rules for drawing-up of the reports are to be announced later.
