1st POLARIN Transnational Access Call for proposals is now OPEN!

The EU funded projectPOLARIN invites the scientific community to submit proposals to access 49 Research Infrastructures (RIs) in both polar regions contributing to addressing the key research priorities.

POLARIN provides free of charge Transnational Access (TA) to research infrastructures for selected user groups. Transnational access can be either in-person, remote, or a combination of both. A list of participating polar research infrastructures, eligibility criteria, and complete guidelines for the application process can be found here.

The proposals applying to the POLARIN TA call must be submitted through the POLARIN Transnational Access Platform (POLARIN TAP) on-line system by the proposal deadline. Late submissions and submissions via any other channel will not be accepted. Deadline for submission of proposals is 28th of November 2024, 4 pm CET.  The access decisions will be announced in mid-March 2025 via the POLARIN TAP.

POLARIN is an EU-funded initiative that brings together an international network of polar research infrastructures. The project will run for five years from March 2024 to February 2029. It aims to address the scientific challenges of polar regions by providing integrated access to a wide array of high-level research infrastructures, including research stations in the Arctic and Antarctic, research vessels, icebreakers, observatories, and data repositories.
