ExpertGate is preparing to submit a project proposal under the Australia-India Strategic Research Fund. This project will bring together four researchers—three from India and one from Australia—to collaborate on cutting-edge scientific research and technology initiatives.
If you are interested in joining this project, kindly submit your Expression of Interest (EOI) at your earliest convenience. Once we have gathered EOIs, we will organise a meeting to discuss the project details and finalise the submission.
Looking forward to your response.
