Overarching science strategies, plans and policies
There are no specific Marine Biotechnology strategies, plans or policies in Bulgaria. Bulgarian Science & Technology Policy for the period 2009–2019 is described in the National Strategy for Scientific Research.
- National Strategy for Scientific Research Ministry of Education, Youth and Science[1]
Research funding schemes and programmes
Funding for scientific research is provided by the National Science Fund [2]. For the financial year 2012-2013 there was one competition for research programmes in the thematic priorities with a total annual budget for all thematic priorities of about 11 million euro. Most of the thematic priorities may contain marine biotechnology research elements inlcuding:
- Energy; energy efficiency and transport
- Development of ec-technologies and innovations
- New materials and nano-technology
- ICT
- Health; quality of life and biotechnologies
National Research Funding Programmes which have a significant marine research element include:
- Development of Scientific Potential managed by the National Science Fund [3]
