ZMA takes part in Synthesys; an integrated infrastructure initiative grant, funded by the European Union.

The Synthesys partnership offers financial support to visiting researchers. This makes the valuable collections of large European natural history institutions more accessible, benefiting research Europe-wide.  

SYNTHESYS funding is available to provide scientists based in European Member, Associate and Candidate States to undertake short visits to utilise the infrastructure (comprising the collections, staff expertise and analytical facilities) at one of the 16 partner institutions for the purposes of their research.

The SYNTHESYS Office is pleased to announce the start of the new SYNTHESYS project and has now opened its first Call for proposals under the European Commission's FPVII European-funded Integrating Activities funding scheme. The deadline is on October 16th at 17.00 hrs UK time.
