CORE: Grant extension guidelines now available

The FNR has set up new guidelines that outline the conditions and procedures for requesting extensions to CORE research grants in cases of long-term leaves of essential project staff that may impact research project timelines. Considered are, among others, illness, pregnancy, parental leave, and caregiving responsibilities. The research grant extension is designed to accommodate the needs of researchers facing these situations while maintaining fairness, adherence to national laws, and ensuring cost neutrality of the FNR funded project.
