Affiliated Researchers
An Affiliated Researcher (AR) is a scholar who receives a service contract from the RCC to write at least one grant that—if successful—would be hosted by the RCC.
This grant proposal can be submitted to—among others—the German Research Foundation (DfG), the Volkswagen Foundation, the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD), the Humboldt Foundation, or the European Commission/Europen Research Council (ERC Starter/Consolidator/Advanced Grant, Individual Fellowships - Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions, etc).
