2013

These 8 projects were selected from a total of 71 which were submitted with budgets totaling more than $700,000. An additional 7 projects were invited to revise and resubmit proposals; any projects in this second category which are selected for funding will be added to the list in late January / early February 2013.

Note that in cases where the award was made to a group of researchers, only the principal researcher(s) is/are named. Each project also includes a notation mentioning the sponsoring institution and the project title.

The projects in RRC 13 were selected in December 2012 and work begins in early 2013. The deadline for project completion is December 2013, though we allow researchers a one-time, six-month no-cost extension, extending the final deadline to June 2014. The research teams will present their interim findings at a workshop held in August 2013 in Prague. The resulting papers from these projects will be made available as they are submitted.
