1 Michele Punturo INFN Perugia A special example: The Einstein Telescope

2 M. Punturo - Corso FP7, LNF FP7 is made up of 4 main blocks of activities forming 4 specific programmes plus a 5 th specific programme on nuclear research: Cooperation Ideas People Capacities Research infrastructures Euratom Design Studies Research for the benefit of SMEs Regions of Knowledge Research Potential Science in Society Support to the coherent development of research policies Specific activities of international cooperation 2

3 The Capacities budget is lower than the 10% of the FP7 budget Research infrastructures will account 1.8G ( ) The budget devoted to the Design Studies (DS) is even less (~30M first call, closed in May 2007) M. Punturo - Corso FP7, LNF

4 Low budget, but appealing tool Research infrastructures are devoted to the creation of the ERA: European Research Area The objective of the DS is the design of large research infrastructures in Europe INFN physicists have a long tradition in the big science A well developed international network is mandatory to realize a proposal for a DS M. Punturo - Corso FP7, LNF

5 Research infrastructures play an important role in the advancement of knowledge and technology. What the European Commission indicates as Research Infrastructures? radiation sources data banks in genomics and in social sciences observatories for environmental sciences systems of imaging clean rooms for the development of new materials or nano-electronics computing and communication based electronic infrastructures telescopes M. Punturo - Corso FP7, LNF

6 RI need a broad range of expertise to be developed and should be used and exploited by a large community of scientists and industries on a European scale. Multi-disciplinary European level, Networking component Collaboration with and spin-off toward the industrial world. M. Punturo - Corso FP7, LNF

7 The European Commission (EC) is sensible to the benefits of the RI Benefits for the EU citizens: RI have the ability to bring together people and investment and to contribute to national, regional and European economic development Benefits for the researchers: RI have the ability to create rich research environments and attract researchers from different countries, regions and disciplines. Research infrastructures can be seen as strategic Centres of Excellence for research and training as well as facilitators of public-private partnerships in research. The benefit of cross-disciplinary and institutional collaboration lies in the personal interactions of researchers coming from different countries, disciplines and work places. Since activities in these facilities lie at the frontiers of science, they stimulate the interest of young people and motivate them to embrace scientific careers. M. Punturo - Corso FP7, LNF

8 Benefits for industries and SMEs: RI create important supply and demand effects. Such innovation capacities can be seen through the public-private mobility of researchers and the new technologies applied in building world-level research installations or spin-off products and/or start-up companies. Research infrastructures clearly stimulate industrial impacts and play an outstanding role in building the interface between science and industry. They also have socio-economic impacts, for example where pan-european research infrastructures have their site, often "technology clusters" of associated industry or so-called technology parks can be found. Such strategic centres for transfer of knowledge offer either better possibilities for interdisciplinary research contacts or greater attraction to high-tech firms. As a result, different regions often compete to attract new installations and this can be an opportunity to also increase the public-private interaction in the funding of research activities. M. Punturo - Corso FP7, LNF

9 Existing RI: Integrating Activities: (A. Giuliani talk) e-infrastructures: (F. Ruggeri) New RI M. Punturo - Corso FP7, LNF

10 Existing RI: Integrating Activities: (A. Giuliani talk) e-infrastructures: (F. Ruggeri) New RI Construction of new infrastructures Not implemented by EC Support of the National Funding Institutions is mandatory M. Punturo - Corso FP7, LNF

11 Major Keywords: Conceptual (FP6 was different) No major R&D activity in the project Leave finalisation to the legal, organization and technical work to the preparatory phase European Scale and interest Many ( 3 countries ) European partners Realization of a worldwide competitive infrastructure Strategic Centre of Excellence Forefront science and technology You need a fundamental scientific question to be satisfied through the development of new technology M. Punturo - Corso FP7, LNF

12 Read the call Study the call! Memorize the call!! Find in Cordis all the ancillary documentation If you are the proposal writing coordinator, your partners will make strange questions! M. Punturo - Corso FP7, LNF

13 A proposal of a DS implemented as Collaborative Project is composed by two parts Part A: Project general info Name, duration, abstract,. Beneficiaries legal info Now facilitated by the EU database Budget details Suggestion: start with a target budget, develop the part B of the proposal and try to keep compliant with you initial guess M. Punturo - Corso FP7, LNF

14 Part B: Cover page: Participant #1 is the coordinator; it is the (almost) unique interface between the EC and the beneficiaries (in general the project ) M. Punturo - Corso FP7, LNF

15 1: Scientific and/or technical quality, relevant to the topics addressed by the call 1.1: Concept and Objectives Explain the concept of your project. What are the main ideas that led you to propose this work? Describe in detail the S&T objectives. Show how they relate to the topics addressed by the call. The objectives should be those achievable within the project, not through subsequent development. They should be stated in a measurable and verifiable form, including through the milestones that will be indicated under section 1.3 below. M. Punturo - Corso FP7, LNF

16 1: Scientific and/or technical quality, relevant to the The preparation of this section needs an intense topics addressed by the preparation call work. The targets of your project should be well agreed by all the participants An homogeneous scientific collaboration helps a lot 1.1: Concept and Objectives Explain the concept of your project. What are the main ideas that led you to propose this work? Describe in detail the S&T objectives. Show how they relate to the topics addressed by the call. The objectives should be those achievable within the project, not through subsequent development. They should be stated in a measurable and verifiable form, including through the milestones that will be indicated under section 1.3 below. M. Punturo - Corso FP7, LNF

17 1.2 Progress beyond the stat-of-the-art Describe the state-of-the-art in the area concerned, and the advance that the proposed project would bring about. If applicable, refer to the results of any patent search you might have carried out. The easiest section where to find an agreement between the beneficiaries M. Punturo - Corso FP7, LNF

18 1.3 S/T methodology and associated work plan A detailed work plan should be presented, broken down into work packages (WPs) which should follow the logical phases of the implementation of the project, and include consortium management and assessment of progress and results. (note that your overall approach to management will be described later, in section 2). Please present your plans as follows: Describe the overall strategy of the work plan. Show the timing of the different WPs and their components (Gantt chart or similar). Provide a detailed work description broken down into work packages: Work package list Deliverables list Description of each work package, and summary Summary effort table List of milestones Provide a graphical presentation of the components showing their interdependencies (Pert diagram or similar) M. Punturo - Corso FP7, LNF

19 1.3 S/T methodology and associated work plan A detailed work plan should be presented, broken down into work packages (WPs) which should The preparation follow the logical of this section phases of needs the implementation an intense of the project, and include diplomatic consortium effort to share management the (possible) and assessment resources of and progress and results. (note that your duties overall between approach the to beneficiaries. management will be described later, in section 2).

21 2.1 Management structure and procedures 2.3 Consortium as a whole Very important sections EC very sensible to the management aspects Really crucial in a multi-annual large project (like a DS) Decision making mechanism must be clear and accepted by the proposal participants project oriented or collaboration oriented? M. Punturo - Corso FP7, LNF

22 Collaboration oriented The decision power is in the hands of the groups or institutions representatives The coordinator is actually a spokesperson Huge centrifuge force, low efficiency, larger man power availability Project Oriented The coordinator is a project leader (PL) The decision power is in the hands of the PL diluted by some control body High efficiency But large risk of man power lack: EU funds never cover all the man power needs Support of the groups is instead mandatory A compromise is needed M. Punturo - Corso FP7, LNF

23 3.1 Expected impacts listed in the work programme Clever use and combination of all the keywords and benefits of the RI! 3.2 Dissemination and/or exploitation of project results Web tools, workshops, schools, M. Punturo - Corso FP7, LNF

24 4. Ethical Issues Usually not a problem 5. Consideration of gender aspects Aspect considered important by EC A working group has been dedicated by EC : Helsinki Group on Women and Science ( Personally I found difficulties to seriously fill this section: A collaboration between the EU and CPO INFN teams is desirable M.
