Cooperation programme Thematic areas • Health • Food, agriculture and biotechnology • Information and communication technologies • Nanosciences, nanotechnologies, materials and new production technologies • Energy • Environment (including climate change) • Transport (including aeronautics) • Socio-economic sciences and the humanities • Security and space

  5. Capacities programme • Support the optimum use and the development of Research infrastructures, • Strengthen the research potential of European regions, • Develop the research potential in the EU’s convergence regions, • Science and Society issues, • International cooperation, • Support to SMEs, …

  6. FP7 Timetable

  7. The Research Infrastructures in FP7 July 2005

  8. Objectives • Optimisingthe use and development of the best research infrastructures in Europe; • Helping to create in all fields of Science and Technologynew research infrastructures of pan-European interest needed by the scientific community • to help EU society (including industry) to strengthen itsbase of knowledgeand its technological know how.

  9. Definition of Research Infrastructures • "Facilities", "resources" or "services" that are needed by the scientific community for the development of leading-edge research in the most efficient manner at EU level, as well as for knowledge transmission, knowledge exchanges and knowledge preservation; • covers major equipments, collections, archives and structured information, enabling ICT-based infrastructures, and any other entity of a unique nature used for research.

  10. Research Infrastructures are at the core of the knowledge Triangle Research Education Research infrastructures innovation

  11. Activities forecasted under FP7 Support for: • Existingresearch infrastructures: aiming at optimising the utilisation, sharing / integrating resources and improving their performance; • Newresearch infrastructures (incl. major upgrades) of pan-European interest based on the work of ESFRI; • Emerging needs: support to the development of a European policy on RI and of its international dimension.

  12. a) Support to existing research infrastructures • transnational access • integrating activities • e-infrastructures Implementation through: • Bottom-up calls for proposals open to all fields of science • Targeted calls implemented whenever appropriate in cooperation with thematic areas

  13. b) Support to new research infrastructures • Constructionof new infrastructures and major updates to existing ones, based on the work conducted by ESFRI on the development of a European roadmap list of priority projects; targeted calls and 2 stage approach • Design studies: through a bottom-up approach, promoting foresight and exploratory analysis.

  14. ESFRI Ambitions • To provide an overview of the needs for RI of pan-European interest in different fields of science and technology • To prepare a European Roadmapwith the objective of regular updatesas different areas mature.The making of the Roadmap will be an ongoing process. • To act as an incubator for international negotiations about concrete RI projects with pan-European interest

  15. Photo NASA/ESA/ASI Cassini-Huygens spacecraft c) Support to emerging needs Support measures, through a mixed bottom-up / top-down approach in support to • the development of a European policy for RI • to the development of international cooperation

  16. Research Infrastructures Existing Future Support of excellence Support of ideas (design studies) Bottom-up Reinforcement of Capacities (engineering support of pan-European RIs) Optimisation of Resources Strategic ESFRIRoadmap In brief…

  17. Clear Criteria for new Research Infrastructures • Capacity to offer a top-level service to scientific users and guarantee of scientific excellence through continuous performance upgrades; • Impacts at EU and international level, not only on scientific developments but also on long term socio-economic issues; support to ERA; • Maturity i.e. technological feasibility; life-cycle costs evaluated (the ‘business’ case); EU partnership; commitment of major stakeholders; • Added value of EU financial support (catalysis and leveraging effect).
