On June 7-8, 2017 we will be holding Nature MasterClass workshops at Bar llan University.

June 7: Full day workshop for researchers from Physical Sciences including Nanotechnology and Material Sciences

June 8:  Full day workshop for researchers from Life sciences and Medicine

These workshops will be delivered by Nature journal editors specialised in your area of research. The workshops are intended for more experienced authors and will provide a unique overview of the publishing process at highly selective journals. The editors will share their expert insight into what makes an exemplary paper and will discuss how participants can improve their scientific writing skills to create a polished manuscript ready for publication. In place of a ‘live edit’, the editors will carry out an abstract review of each participant’s work.

• The workshops will take place at Feldman International Conference Center, WEISFELD Hall (Build. # 301)

Registration

Each workshop is limited to 25 researchers, so if you are planning on attending please reply here emphasizing your name, department and workshop date.

Feel free to contact us if you have any questions.

European Research Council (ERC) grants support individual researchers of any nationality and age who wish to pursue their frontier research. The ERC encourages in particular proposals that cross disciplinary boundaries, pioneering ideas that address new and emerging fields and applications that introduce unconventional, innovative approaches.

Lotte will be speaking about the 3 different types of ERC Grants:

•         Starting Grants – for top researchers with 2 to 7 years of experience after their PhD; Award maximum €2 million for 5 years

•         Consolidator Grants - Support top researchers with 7 to 12 years of experience after their PhD; Award maximum €2.75 million for 5 years

•         Advanced Grants - Open to excellent established researchers who have a recent research track-record which identifies them as leaders in their respective field of research; Award maximum €3.5 million for 5 years

If you would like to participate in this event, please click here, and submit your reply no later than May 10, 2016.

Due to the overwhelming success of the previous H2020 training event at Bar Ilan University, we are pleased to welcome back Lotte Jaspers, for a second H2020 Training Day Workshop.

Topics to be covered include:

Call Analysis: how to read, understand and dissect a call for proposal in order to define the proposal objectives, the partners required, and expected impact of the proposal;

Proposal drafting: how to draft a winning proposal and develop a robust project; planning and budgeting; defining the Work Package Structure, specifying tasks and roles;

Partnership building and consortium management

Lotte Jaspers  is a partner at Yellow Research with extensive experience in running EU workshops, conducting pre-submission review of EU projects, and working as an invited expert for the EC.
