The Polish Academy of Sciences (PAN) and the US National Academy of Sciences (NSAS) have jointly selected 18 Ukrainian research teams from various scientific disciplines to receive financial support of up to approximately USD 200,000 each per year for up to three years. 

A total of approximately USD 8 million (PLN 33 million) has been allocated to fund the Ukrainian teams. This is to provide a stable environment for outstanding Ukrainian scientists to conduct research that will help rebuild science in Ukraine in the future.

According to the Polish Academy of Sciences, the 18 winning teams, selected from 174 submissions, are conducting research in the following scientific disciplines: astronomy, environmental sciences, mathematics, psychology, materials science and engineering, agriculture, biomedical sciences, physics and chemistry.
