    Brief

    This funding opportunity enables joint research projects between UK-based researchers and researchers based in São Paulo, Brazil. Eligible applications can be submitted through existing NERC funding schemes, particularly the Pushing the Frontiers initiative, using a single integrated review process managed by both NERC and FAPESP (São Paulo Research Foundation). NERC provides funding for the UK research component at 80% of full economic cost, while FAPESP funds the Brazilian research component. The combined project budget can range from £950,000 to £3.45 million. This arrangement streamlines the application process for international collaborators by eliminating the need for separate submissions to each funding body, making it easier for researchers to pursue cross-border scientific partnerships.
