2021-2022 Funded projects
The VHRN is proud to present this year funded projects!
This year, the Network funded 2 new research projects in addition to the renewal of a 3rd project, whose funding began last year. All of these grants involve collaborations with 3 countries including the United States, France, and China. The total investment from VHRN (nearly $140,000) was also supported by a financial participation from the international teams (over $110,000).
Congratulations to all the recipients!
