一个封尘已久的邮箱终于被打开，

一则鼓励我们去探索的邮件仍在等待。

每年两次，挑战过去，创造未来，全球摆擂台。

比尔和梅林达•盖茨基金会的科技慈善令人赞叹！

他们知道马云达摩来了吧？

道高一尺，魔高一丈，

科学探索的道路只有智勇双全者上，

全球探索大挑战@我们了！

Dear Colleagues,

The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation announced the latest Grand Challenges Explorations (GCE) grant recipients on May 26, 2016.

Grand Challenges Explorations grant program funds discovery research, awarding initial grants of US $100,000 and potential follow-on grants of up to US $1 million. Grants target an expanding set of topics.

More than 40 projects in 14 different countries received an initial grant of US$100,000. In addition, the foundation has provided additional funding to 11 Grand Challenges Explorations projects with additional funding of up to US$1 million each. We have highlighted some of the funded projects on our slideshow and blog.

We will begin accepting applications for the next round of GCE starting in September 2016.
