In addition, we can recommend the service of various providers dedicated to preparing manuscripts, which perform, for example, fine editing of the text, translation into English, format correction, among others. You can find a list of selected providers in the lower section of this page.

Regardless of the items described above, the Research Directorate has internal funding granted monthly to eligible researchers for the preparation of their publications, as well as funding for the presentation of their work at scientific conferences. You can find information regarding these opportunities at the Opportunities for Researchers / Internal Funding Opportunities page (here).
