Full text of the announcement:

  • Call announcement for Polish research institutions to submit proposals for establishing Dioscuri Centres of Scientific Excellence – text
  • Registration form – text

Submissions meeting the formal requirements will be published alongside the Dioscuri call announcement, thus helping researchers find the right research institution in Poland.

Researchers will be able to choose an institution from beyond the published list, provided that the institution meets the formal requirements and will commit to satisfy the basic conditions specified in the announcement.
