Financial Support for participating to Networking events

TUBITAK already offers financial support to Turkish researchers for participation to Networking events abroad. In order to avoid confusions and offer equal chance to everyone, there will be no difference between the "Turkey in H2020" support and TUBITAK's support. All researchers applying for a travel support have to be selected by TUBITAK's Selection Committee.
