Marie Curie ITN and IAPP General Information and Proposal Writing Events
Venue
- Newcastle University – 27th September 2011 (closed)
- Natural History Museum, London – 28th September 2011 (closed)
Time
Registration will start at 10:00. The sessions will start at 10:30 and close at around 13:30.
Aim:
The aim of the sessions is to provide participants with an overview of the Marie Curie Initial Training Networks (ITNs) and Industry-Academia Partnerships and Pathways (IAPP), and with a deeper understanding of the key issues they are required to address in planning and writing a proposal. The events will include information about the two new strands of the ITN scheme, introduced in the 2012 Work Programme: the European Industrial Doctorate (EID) Programme and the Innovative Doctoral Programme (IDP).
Who should attend?
The sessions will be of particular interest to UK-based researchers who are interested in and/or are planning to submit a proposal to the Marie Curie ITNs call, which opened on 20 July 2011 and closes on 12 January 2012, and the IAPPs, which will open on 19 October 2011 and close on 19 April 2012.
We should emphasise that while the IAPP scheme is more obviously aimed at the private sector, the participation of the private sector is also essential for the ITN scheme.
Therefore these events are relevant for representatives from private sector research organisations as well as those from the academic sector.
Programme outline
The sessions will include a presentation on the schemes, highlighting the new strands and any changes that have occurred since the previous calls. The session will also provide a forum for discussion, and to answer questions that applicants may have relating to ITNs and IAPPs, and preparing a proposal.
Please note that an additional ITN (and IRSES) event will be held in Coventry on 29th September, in partnership with the West Midlands European Service.
