National Science Foundation has been running the Convergence Accelerator Program (CAP) research program for a few years now, which aims to speed up the process from basic research to applied research. In order for researchers in Sweden to also have the opportunity to apply for funding within the program, the Swedish Research Council and Vinnova are now jointly entering into a collaboration with NSF.

The grant offer that is currently available for researchers in Sweden is about different types of applications for chemical sensing (Real-World Chemical Sensing Application). To be able to take part in the offer, the researchers must be part of a team with researchers in the USA.

More information about the research program is available on the NSF website
