More than 70 grants will boost the partnerships between European scientists studying in graphene and other related 2D materials. The grants support the mobility of researchers involved in the Graphene Flagship and have a budget of €82,000 until the end of 2019.
![Water is one of the most fascinating substances on Earth. At the heart of its many unusual properties, it shows a strong response to applied electric fields, what scientists call high polarizability. Now, researchers within the Graphene Flagship at the University of Manchester found that water behaves very differently on a microscopic scale, which could lead to a better understanding of life.](/media/8d88e5db82a01fe/2018-06-microscopic-water-sheds-new-light-on-life.jpg?anchor=center&mode=crop&quality=80&width=600&height=600&rnd=132504648467070000)
