2. reinforcing the national research groups;
3. renewing the staff of Post-Graduation Programs (PPG) in higher education and research institutions;
4. promoting the insertion of Brazilian and foreign researchers in post-doctoral internships, stimulating their integration with research projects developed by Post-Graduation Programs in the country.
