Istanbul Technical University (ITU) invites Slovak research institutions and researchers to express their interest in collaborating within the scope of the TÜBİTAK–Slovak Academy of Sciences (SAS) Bilateral Cooperation Call in the following thematic areas:

• Biomedicine and Pharmaceuticals
• Plant Science and Biodiversity
• Artificial Intelligence and Its Applications
• Advanced Materials (including Biomaterials and Polymers).

As an initial step in developing partnerships, ITU is seeking to identify Slovak institutions and researchers active in these fields who are open to collaboration and interested in engaging with counterparts at ITU.

To launch this process, ITU will host an online introductory meeting in early July 2025, offering a space for introductions, thematic matchmaking, and an exchange of project ideas.

We warmly invite Slovak institutions and researchers to get in touch and take part in this collaborative initiative.

For expressions of interest or inquiries, please contact: projelerofisi_ulusal@itu.edu.tr

Expression of interest deadline: 30 June 2025
