Combined call for Grants for research projects in Ecology (SIBECOL-AEET) 2023
Monday 13 th March 2023Continuing with our aim of supporting early career ecologists by providing them funding opportunities, we are pleased to inform the launching of the combined call of research projects for Early Career Researchers (ECR) in 2023 from the Iberian Society of Ecology (SIBECOL) and the Spanish Society of Terrestrial Ecology (AEET). The Iberian Association of Limnology (AIL) joined this combined call last year and will do it with a triannual periodicity. The Spanish Society of Ethology and Evolutionary Ecology (SEEEE) and the Portuguese Society of Ecology (SPECO) will join this combined call in the upcoming calls.
This multiple call is open for research projects in any topic and ecosystem within Ecology (theoretical, terrestrial, freshwater or marine), but please see the specific call of each society below.
Any member of SIBECOL, AEET, AIL, SPECO or SEEEE can apply to either call (SIBECOL vs AEET). In the event that a researcher applies to both calls simultaneously, they must take into account that the projects to be presented in each call must be substantially different and that only one project can get awarded.
This call wants to support both researchers in their initial stages of their scientific career, as well as those in somewhat more advanced stages, for which reason it differentiates various fellowships for pre-doctoral researchers, recent post-docs and more advanced post-docs, thus increasing funding possibilities of their scientific projects across the different research stages in which they are.
This call wants to be equal and accessible to all ECR. Moreover, SIBECOL, AEET, AIL, SPECO and SEEEE are signatory to the San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment (DORA), so the evaluation of the projects will be done under such criteria.
To do so, the combined call of research projects for ECR SIBECOL-AEET in 2023 is organized in the following calls:
Research projects SIBECOL:
Proposals can be led by one or two researchers and must be related to experimental or theoretical Ecology of aquatic or terrestrial ecosystems. Proposals that integrate the study of more than one ecosystem (terrestrial, freshwater, marine) or that have a theoretical or methodological orientation, which transcend the delimitations between types of ecosystems will be positively valued, although such multidisciplinarity is not imperative. Proposals must be written in English.
● Starting early career researchers project grant (Starting ECR): Early-term post-doctoral researchers (PhD defense < 3 years ago). One fellowship of € 3,000 €.
● Advanced early career researchers project grant (Advanced ECR): Mid-term post-doctoral researchers (3 < PhD defense < 8 years). One fellowship of € 4,000 €.
Research projects AEET:
Research projects led by a single researcher in any topic and ecosystem within Ecology (theoretical, terrestrial, freshwater or marine). Proposals can be written in English or Spanish. Three different options exist:
● Taking the lead (Tomando la iniciativa): Pre-doctoral researchers who have not yet defended the PhD thesis. Two fellowships of € 2,000 € each.
● Gaining independence (Ganando independencia): Early-term post-doctoral researchers (PhD defence < 3 yrs ago). Three fellowships of € 2,500 € each.
● Consolidating the research (Consolidando la investigación): Mid-term post-doctoral researchers (3 < PhD defence < 6 yrs). One fellowship of € 3,000 €.
All the necessary information and documents to apply for any of the three calls can be found in the following links:
SIBECOL projects: http://sibecol.org/es/proyectos
AEET projects: http://www.aeet.org/es/convocatorias/proyectosinvestigacion.html
The call will be open from March 15th until June 15th 2023 (23:59 H. UTC+1).
To be considered, the project proposals must follow the regulations of the respective call and be presented using the application form format. Please, check the regulation and the evaluation criteria of each call carefully. To submit your proposals, send an email with all the required information to the Secretary of the respective Society:
SIBECOL projects: secretariat@sibecol.org
AEET projects: https://www.aeet.org/forms/proyectos_investigacion
The Secretary of SIBECOL or AEET will confirm the successful application with a read receipt. In case of doubts with any of the project calls, do not hesitate to contact the respective Secretary.
We encourage all researchers in Ecology to spread this multiple call across their networks to achieve the maximum participation of ECR.
Thank you in advance for your participation and we wish you a lot of success!
