  1. HORIZON 2020: New Scientific Funding Opportunities to Improve Global Research Efforts Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Dmitri Chicherin, D.Sc. (Tech.) | Research Liaison Officer | Research Support Services Aalto University, Finland Monday, 5 August 2013

  2. Outline • Objectives and key features of Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions • Achievements of Marie Curie Actions FP3-FP7 • Types of Actions • Emphasis on US participation • Success rates • Preliminary deadlines Marie Skłodowska-Curie and Pierre Curie Dmitri Chicherin

  3. Why (for US)? • Funding for individual researcher mobility to and from Europe • Funding for secondments from EU to US universities, research organization and companies • Also administrative, managerial & technical staff • Participation in networks of early-stage researchers’ training • Funding for US in exceptional cases Dmitri Chicherin

  4. Funding for US and other industrialized countries (draft) • the participation is deemed essential for carrying out the action by the Commission or the relevant funding body • or • funding is provided for under a bilateral scientific and technological agreement or any other arrangement Dmitri Chicherin

  5. Third countries: EU contribution, success rate (all EU FP7 projects) Averagecontribution per applicant in FP7 (2007-2011) EU average: 300 k€ US: 40 k€ Averagesuccessratesin FP7 (2007-2011) EU average: 21 % US: 26 %

  6. Mobility • Career • Training Objectives of Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions • Ensure the optimum development and dynamic use of Europe’s intellectual capital in order to generate new skills and innovation • Develop and diversify researchers skills, support their career • Improve mobility and transferofknowledge • Develop mutually-beneficial researchco-operation inside Europe and between Europe and thirdcountries • Encourage researchers tostayinEuropeand to come • Enhance business – academiacollaboration • Influence generalpublicthrough outreach activities • Attractpeopleto research Dmitri Chicherin

  7. Achievements of Marie Curie Actions (1996 - 2013) • 60 000 fellows to date • More than 10 000 PhD supported in FP7 • Marie Curie researchers coming from all over the world • Marie Curie host organisations in more than 80 countries • 46 % of researchers coming to EU from industrialised countries stay in Europe after the end of the IIF fellowship • 38 % women participation in FP7 MCA, close to the 40% target • Bridging the academia-business gap: ~8.000 secondments / recruitments in ~750 FP7 MCA projects • http://ec.europa.eu/research/evaluations/pdf/archive/fp7_monitoring_reports/fifth_fp7_monitoring_report.pdf, 104 pp. Dmitri Chicherin

  8. Key features of Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions • Proposed 5.75 B€ for 2013-2020 (in 2007-2013: 4.7 B€) • Research excellence • Triple-i: international, inter-sectoral, interdisciplinary • Bottom-up approach • Main EU programme providing structured doctoral training, including industrial doctorates • Excellent employment & working conditions, in line with the EU Charter and Code for Researchers • Mobility rule: less than 12 months during last 3 yrs. in the Host Country • Two categories • ESR: Early stage researcher = M.Sc. + 0 years … M.Sc. + 4 years (FTE, Full time equivalent) • ER: Experienced researcher = PhD/D.Sc. or M.Sc. + ≥ 4 years (FTE) Dmitri Chicherin

  9. Individual Fellowships (IF) for Experienced researchers European Union & Associated Countries* Third Countries, incl.

  11. Research and Innovation Staff Exchange (RISE) European Union & Associated Countries Third Countries, incl. US Academic / Non-academic Academic / Non-academic ≥6 months research secondments 1-12 months reintegration ≥secondment US (2007-2013):162 organizations, 111 projects and vice versa (but outgoing from US are not funded by EU) Min. 2 organizations /different EU countries • Mobility rule: less than 12 months during last 3 yrs. in Host Country • Secondees continue to be employed and receive salary • Consortium agreement not required • Project up to 4 years, up to 500 researcher-months Dmitri Chicherin

  12. Innovative Training Networks (ITN) for Early Stage Researchers • European Training Networks (ETN) • European Industrial Doctorates (EID) • European Joint Doctorates (EJD) • Triple-i • Early Stage Researchers: ≤ 4 yrs. of research, no doctor’s degree • 2007-2013: possibility for funding of up to 20 % of Experienced Researchers • Not in the draft of Horizon 2020 Work Programme, tbc • Joint supervision • 3-36 months, up to 500 researcher-months • US: can participate, no direct funding unless justified • 1 ITN project by now, http://www.mlpm.eu/ Dmitri Chicherin
