The France-Stanford Center seeks to fund research projects across all disciplines. Priority will be given to projects with the potential to develop new collaborations involving junior researchers, and to those leading to collaborative work on interdisciplinary issues. We are especially interested in “Two Cultures” projects bridging the sciences and humanities by drawing upon both humanistic and scientific methods and approaches.
