January 30, 2008, Turku, FinlandDOWNLOAD THE WORKSHOP MATERIAL HERE
Research Framework programmes have been the main financial tools through which the European Union supports research and development activities covering almost all scientific disciplines. Its aim is “strengthening the scientific and technological bases of Community industry and encouraging it to become more competitive at international level.” The recent 7th Research Framework Program (FP) headlines until 2013 the specific programmes Cooperation, Ideas, Capacities and People. Still, bureaucracy and application hurdles scare off a number of researchers and companies to participate in FP7.
The workshop on 30th January 2008 in Turku is targeted to PhD-students, postdocs and junior group leaders in the life science sector that to date have little or no experience with EU research funding. It will provide insights into all aspects that are important for the optimal use of the funding opportunities provided by the 7th Research Framework Programme, starting with the identification of suitable calls and within the “Cooperation” programme, the search for project partners and the building of research consortia and is finally going into details of the proposal and evaluation procedure.
The workshop includes extensive hands-on-exercises, thus giving the participants the opportunity to directly apply and deepen the knowledge gained. After finishing the workshop, participants will be able to navigate the “jungle” of EU research funding and to prepare grant applications within FP7 more effectively and successfully.
