We are very happy to announce that our research group is receiving a large, competitive grant from FAPESP (Jovem Pesquisador, R$415k, grant 2017/01461-2). Besides including funding to support the group’s computational needs, this grant includes 1 PhD, 1 MsC and 2 undergraduate scholarships.
415k reais may not look like much when converted to dollars, but this amount of funding is quite hard to get lately in Brasil, especially for junior faculty.
