Grants are allocated for the implementation of fundamental scientific research and exploratory scientific research in 2023-2024 in the fields of knowledge specified in the competition documentation, with a subsequent possible extension of the implementation period by one or two years.
The size of one RSF grant is up to 1.5 million rubles annually.
Grants will be allocated for the implementation of fundamental and exploratory scientific research in 2023-2024 in all areas of knowledge of the RSF classifier. The main objective of the competition is to create the development of new topics for research teams (including the definition of the object and subject of research, drawing up a research plan, choosing research methods) and the formation of research teams.
The total number of members of the scientific team (together with the project leader) is from 2 to 4 people.
