The France Berkeley Fund was established in 1993 as a partnership between the government
of France and the University of California at Berkeley, the France-Berkeley
Fund (FBF) promotes scholarly exchange in all disciplines between
UC Berkeley and all research centers and public institutions of
higher education in France. Through its annual grant competition,
the Fund provides seed-money for innovative, bi-national collaborative
research. Successful
projects bring together senior and junior researchers in a variety
of ways, from workshops and conferences to exchanges of researchers
in laboratories.
For the 2010 grant program applications from UC Berkeley, UC Davis and
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory are eligible for the competition.
All applications from UC Davis need to go through: The Office of Sponsored Programs – Office of Research
1850 Research Park
University of California, Davis

Since 1993, the France-Berkeley Fund has awarded
close to $2.5 million to fund nearly 250 projects in a wide range
of fields -- from viticulture and bioengineering to health care
policy and Asian history.
Many past FBF grant recipients have gone on to secure additional
funding from private and governmental sources on both sides of
the Atlantic to further their collaboration. In addition to the
grant competition, the Fund administers the Berkeley-C.N.R.S.
exchange of scholars in the humanities and social sciences. Please see our:
2010 Call for Applications.
