Romanians at JINR for long terms

Three sources of financing the bilateral cooperation from the

membership contribution:

• 8% of– on financing the grants of Romanian Plenipotentiary

• 12% of the actually paid contribution – on financing cooperation

programs between JINR and Romanian Institutions and the summer

student practice.

• ~20% for supplementary salaries

• 40% for delivery contracts

Since 2009 every year 10-15% to support the Romanian research

groups in Romania
