Venue: TBC

| Dr Richard Guest |
Marie Curie Innovative
Training Networks (ITNs) provide funding for doctoral training programmes
run jointly between a number of institutions across Europe. They run for up to
4 years and are worth up to €4.5m. There is no limit to the disciplines which
can apply, and the University currently has six ITNs running. One of these is Enhanced
Mobile Biometrics (AMBER) in EDA, led by Dr Richard
Guest.
The next call is due to open in the autumn with a deadline
early in the New Year. Despite the triggering of Article 50 UK universities can
still apply, and the
Treasury has agreed to underwrite any grants that have been approved at the
point the UK leaves the EU in March 2019. Richard has kindly agreed to talk
about his experience of applying for these complex grants, what worked for him,
what he would have done differently, and what people should bear in mind when
starting to develop the collaborations.
The session is free and open to all, and tea and coffee will
be provided. However, do drop me a line to let me know that you plan to come.
