In line with our vision of being among the leading countries in the world with its original scientific studies on polar sciences, national science expeditions to the polar regions (Arctic and Antarctica) are organized regularly every year under the auspices of the Presidency of the Republic of Turkey and under the coordination of TÜBİTAK MAM Polar Research Institute (KARE). With the expeditions, it is aimed for our scientists to conduct original, sustainable and high quality scientific studies on polar sciences, to ensure cooperation with scientists of other countries and to make our country one of the respected countries that have a say in the polar regions.
In line with these objectives, the 2026 Calls for the 2026 CUP-1001 and CUP Foreign Research Base Participation Project calls, which will support scientific studies on the "Poles", were opened within the framework of the conditions determined by TÜBİTAK-MAM KARE and ARDEB.
