International Training for FP7 Newcomers
23.02.2012
“Fit for Health” (www.fitforhealth.eu), a European initiative supporting researchers in all stages of Health research and results valorisation, is organising a free of charge full-day international training addressing newcomers to the 7th EU Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development (FP7). The event provides those not familiar with FP7 yet with concise and comprehensive information on the opportunities and rules of European research funding. It addresses all those involved in biomedical, clinical and public health research: representatives and researchers from companies, clusters, universities, research institutes, hospitals, patient organisations etc. Small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) play an ever bigger role in FP7 Health calls: Our trainings take this into account and we specifically encourage researchers from SMEs to participate. Apart from general introductions to FP7 and the Health theme, the programme features presentations and exercises on consortium composition and how to find project partners as well as legal/financial aspects. Special attention is paid throughout the event to provide information of particular interest to SMEs. The event is presented by a team of European experts with vast experience in FP7. The next and last call for proposals for Health research with an estimated budget of well over 700 million Euros (about 25% to go to SMEs) is expected to be published in summer 2012. If you consider participating in a proposal submission to this call and are not familiar with FP7 and general principles of EU Health research yet, this is your opportunity and perfect timing to jump on the train!
