Výzva | SAV-CNRS TANDEM program 2024–2026

The Slovak Academy of Sciences (SAV), the French Research Center in Humanities and Social Sciences in Prague (CEFRES) and the Institute for Humanities & Social Sciences of the French National Research Center (CNRS HSS) are launching the first call for applications for the TANDEM incubator program dedicated to researchers from the Slovak Academy of Sciences and CNRS.

 GOALS OF THE PROGRAM

The Tandem CNRS-SAV program endeavors excellency in social sciences and humanities by bringing together Slovak and French colleagues to intensify scientific collaboration between our countries in the frame of European Research Area. It benefits from the experience of two Czech-French Tandem program schemes at CEFRES, whose former members have obtained two ERC grants, incl. the BOAR project.

The aim of the newly launched program starting in 2024 is to associate one SAV researcher and one CNRS HSS or affiliated to CNRS HSS researcher (i.e. member of an UMR – mixed research unit between CNRS and French universities) around a joint research project. CEFRES (see contact below) may help CNRS (or SAV) applicants to find potential SAV (or CNRS) research partners. This collaboration will lead to reinforcing Slovak-French scientific collaborations through the submission of a project proposal at the latest one year after the end of the program:

  • in an ERC call;
  • in other calls of the EU Framework Program for Research and Innovation (Horizon Europe);
  • in other calls supporting excellent research of comparable significance (with approval of the coordinators of the program), e. g. calls of the French Science Foundation (ANR).

Important: In case of ERC (or similar) calls with one PI only, the TANDEM partners shall decide which of them will submit the application.

ORGANIZATION AND EXPECTED OUTCOMES

One TANDEM team will be selected and will work for two years, from June 2024 (June 1, 2024–May 31, 2026). The TANDEM team will be composed of:

  • one SAV researcher, benefitting from financial support granted by SAV (in the case of applying for Horizon Europe project, one post-doc[1] or PhD student could be associated to the research team);
  • one CNRS researcher, benefitting from financial support granted by the French Ministry for Higher Education and Research (MESR) via CNRS HSS (specific CNRS international mobility support, soutien à la mobilité internationale, SMI).

During the joint research period devoted to the preparation of common research project application (ERC, Horizon Europe, ANR or equivalent scheme), the TANDEM recipients are expected to:

  • present their project during an open kick-off in Slovakia (June 2024);
  • organize one Slovak-French or (Central-)European scientific event (workshop, seminar, conference) at the SAV and one at CEFRES;
  • participate in seminars, workshops and consultations supporting ERC applicants, in case they will chose to submit such a project: in particular, they will be offered the CNRS HSS dedicated support in developing European research applications.

 ELIGIBILITY

At SAV, the call is open to humanities and social sciences as well as to interdisciplinary projects;
the program is open to researchers from all three SAV Science Departments.

The French partner needs to be eligible for an CNRS HSS SMI Soutien à la mobilité internationale, available to ca 10 000 researchers, academics, and engineers from over 300 research structures.

  • has to send the project plan, identical as the one sent by his TANDEM partner (max 3 pages);
  • has to send his/her CV;
  • is expected to demonstrate experience in project management.

SELECTION PROCEDURE

Good knowledge of English is required to participate in the TANDEM call. The selection will be based on the potential of the TANDEM team to submit a successful project proposal in an ERC, Horizon Europe, ANR or similar call described above.

The evaluation committee is composed of representatives of the SAV, CEFRES and CNRS. It is based on the Joint SAV – CEFRES Experts’ Committee.

It is highly recommended the applicants contact the program coordinators on behalf of SAV & CEFRES before submitting their proposal: an ad-hoc webinar to discuss both scientific and practical issues may be organized if needed.

IMPORTANT: Information on the TANDEM program is published simultaneously on SAV website and on the website of the Department of International Cooperation (OMS) (for SAV researchers) and by CEFRES and HSS (for CNRS or affiliated researchers). The calls are identical and the procedure unique as described below.
