22 Competition is tough: only the best projects get funded

23 Where to Start Start preparing early as soon as draft Work Programme is available NCP Colleagues in university/ previously funded researchers Read Work Programme Participant portal download criteria for call Register as soon as call is open Check deadlines

24 Initial proposal ideas When formulating the idea, answer the following questions in the first few paragraphs: What problem are you trying to solve? Topic in call = problem defined by the EU, your proposal is the solution Is it a European problem? Scale, citizens affected, need for cooperation Is there a solution already available? Why doesn t the current solution work? What is the urgency of this work, why now and what will be the outcome if the research isn t undertaken? Why this consortium? Are you the best people to do this work?

25 What is important when setting up a consortium Balanced consortium with complementary skills Appropriate size for the project Credible management structures Multidisciplinary (depending on topic) Balanced with regard to countries and gender Happy to work with people for a number of years Up to the job, relevant, recent publications/expertise Industry partners/patient organisations etc. Don t carry extra partners Management must be smooth

26 What makes a strong proposal Get the evaluators attention in a ½ page! Ensure your proposed work meets the topic addressed in the call Follow exactly the structure given in the Guide for applicants Be as concise and precise as possible Give clear aims and objectives Methodology must be clear - must be clear what is proposed to be done! Outline methods and for clinical trials, recruitment numbers, inclusion/exclusion criteria etc. The consortium of partners must be excellent and appropriate for the tasks At stage 1, proposal idea should be well formed (a mini full proposal)

27 Write for the Evaluators Avoid jargon it can irritate evaluators! Respect the page limits and the order of the various sections (check Guide for Applicants and templates provided) Check spelling and grammar Have the evaluators in mind Make it easy to find information (refer to specific Work Packages, milestones etc.) Get a colleague to read full proposal if they cannot understand the objectives, neither will the evaluators Read the proposal and see how it flows avoid unnecessary repetition and contradictory statements NB: Sell your proposal!

28 Work Programme Impact The expected impacts listed in the work programme under the relevant topic Enhancing innovation capacity and integration of new knowledge Strengthening the competitiveness and growth of companies by developing innovations meeting the needs of European and global markets; and, where relevant, by delivering such innovations to the markets Any other environmental, climate change and socially important impacts (not already covered above) Effectiveness of the proposed measures to exploit and disseminate the project results (including management of IPR), to communicate the project, and to manage research data where relevant

29 Impact Impact has become one of the key evaluation criteria in European research proposals. Researchers have difficulty in understanding the concept of 'Impact' and in explaining the potential impact of their proposals. EC wants to see results of your project proposals - the impact of your project on EU policies Publications in peer-reviewed high impact journals Patent applications Number of Union pieces of legislation referring to activities supported in the area of the different Societal Challenges

30 Impact Assessment Report (Horizon 2020) The overall results from the analysis of 726 projects (FP5) under Evimp-2, representing 992 million of EU-funding, reveal the following: The projects have generated or are expected to generate the following results in the short term: results in the short term: prototypes/demonstrators/pilots, 747 new software tools, publications, doctorates, 310 inputs into technical standards, 423 inputs into EU legislation texts, patent applications, 204 registered designs and other forms (IPR) the creation of 248 spin-off companies.

31 Impact Begin with potential impact design project around that Where does the project fit into the bigger picture Why does your idea matter How long does impact last for a number of years longer than project duration it is much broader than dissemination activities such as conference attendance and the publication of high quality academic papers

32 Impact What will come out of your project? 2) Who wants these results? 3) Why do they want these results? 4) How do you plan to inform them about the results? 5) What further steps will be needed? the potential impacts of the project should be clearly detailed and highlight the improvement for European competitiveness. Make reference to what is outlined in the work programme as expected impacts. For example, in the context of improvements to the quality of life, active ageing, and improvements in the efficiency of health and care systems you can refer to potential savings for healthcare systems by reduces hospitalisation costs. You can and should highlight the benefits of your method or offering by referring to cost-effectiveness, health economics and marketing strategies.

33 Impact tated%20template%20h2020_innovation.pdf Improved therapy/diagnosis/care or selfmanagement and patient sense of security Patient empowerment or improved family quality of life Assistance to the weaker classes of the population Reduction in care management costs Improved patient-health professional interaction System replication

34 Impact Discuss your impact on the related stakeholders. For example, why are they involved? How they will benefit from your innovation? And how they can support you? E.g., if local authorities are interested in assisting ageing people communities, consequently, your innovation might be of interest for these authorities and they might be keen on supporting you.

39 Social Science and Humanities Under Horizon 2020, the social sciences and humanities (SSH) are given an enhanced role as a cross-cutting issue aimed at improving our assessment of and response to complex societal issues. Therefore, where relevant, the research and innovation chain should include contributions from SSH disciplines such as sociology, economics, psychology, political science, history and cultural sciences

40 2014 Work Programme 9 SSH-flagged topics flagged as relevant to integrate SSH elements PHC 1, PHC-5, PHC 6, PHC-17, PHC- 23, PHC -31, HCO-5, HCO-14 and HCO-15 What does SSH-flagged mean? Topics dedicated to SSH research Issues are framed mainly from SSH perspective Relevant project partners come from SSH discipline Topics with a significant SSH component SSH expertise is an integral, though not exclusive part of the research design of topics Solutions to the problem are to be generated by integrating knowledge stemming from both SSH disciplines and non-ssh

41 Examples of Projects Life course pathways underlying social differences in healthy ageing (LIFEPATH) WP: Life-course socioeconomic pathways towards healthy ageing and the role of modifiable risk factors LIFEPATH integrates biology, biostatistics, epidemiology and epigenomics approaches with social science approaches (sociology, economics & public health policies) Specific challenge (topic description PHC-01)..interaction between the genetic make-up of individual human beings and behavioural, environmental factors

42 How to include/assess SSH Some specific SSH areas that might be considered for health research are: ethics, vulnerability, inequality and legal matters SSH needs to be initiated upstream, and not simply considered as an add-on help achieving impact through SSH Important to check: a) the level of interaction between STEM and SSH; b) the level of rigour of application of SSH c) and, in the scope, the areas that go beyond health economics Importance to disseminate more information on good practices in embedding SSH

43 Flagged SSH topics Proposals under these topics are expected to take into account the social, economic, behavioural, institutional, historical and/or cultural dimensions, as appropriate, of a societal issue. Applicants should therefore ensure that: contributions from the SSH are integrated at various stages of their proposed project, and the actions required, participants and disciplines involved as well as the added value of SSH contributions are clearly stated in the proposal. Where relevant, applicants may also include contributions from the SSH in a project proposal under any H2020 research topic.

44 Examples in Health Research 1. The variability between patients in responses to same treatment is one of the most challenging health care problems: Need to unravel the mechanisms of how peoples expectations affect immune and endocrine responses and related health outcomes, through the use of multidisciplinary methods in experimental studies (Social science, biomedical and life sciences, neuroscience and humanities) 2. How healthy ageing individuals manage to stabilise their quality of life & health in real life: To examine the determinants of healthy instead of ill ageing and the factors stabilising instead of declining health, through evidence standard for real life instead of laboratory outcomes with results on the level of individuals instead of populations (gerontology, clinical and experimental psychology, ethnology, psychotherapy, robotics)
