FP7 Overview of 2009/2010 CallsSergey MikhalovskyUniversity of Brighton, UK E-mail: s.mikhalovsky@brighton.ac.ukPhone: +44 1273 642034 http://www.ukro.ac.uk
Framework Programme 7 (FP7) http://www.ukro.ac.uk
Where do we start? Currently we co-ordinate one FP6 project (1.2 million euros), seven FP7 projects (6.2 million euros), participate in three other FP7 projects (ca 3.5 million euros), and we have just received confirmation from FP7 that our two new IRSES proposals have been recommended for funding (800,000 euros). EU Funding
Where do we start? Today I represent here the University of Brighton – chemistry, materials, pharmacology and pharmaceutics, environmental pollution control, biomedicine and biology. We would like to establish regular research and educational links and apply for FP7 funding together with the Russian academics. EU Funding

FP7 Marie Curie Actions http://www.ukro.ac.uk
Marie Curie Actions Objectives and Policy Context: • Make Europe more attractive to researchers • Structuring effect on the European Research Area through transnational and intersectoral mobility in order to create a European labour market for researchers • Strengthen human potential by: • Encouraging people to become researchers • Encouraging researchers to carry out their research in Europe • Trans-national and inter-sectoral mobility • €4.7 Billion FP7 – People – Marie Curie
Principles • Skills and competence development at all stages of researchers career • Open to all research areas addressed under the Treaty plus possibility of targeted calls • Strong participation from enterprises • Reinforce international dimension • Appropriate gender and work/life balance • Good working environment, transparent recruitment and career development FP7 – People – Marie Curie
