FROM THE HEAD OF DEPARTMENT
NEWS AND generAL information
Parts of UiB is
on strike
As everyone is
aware of, part of the UiB staff is on strike. This includes most of the IT department and
that may have consequences for our network. Those who work with
online applications to the Research Council should add these continuously
since changes can be made in the applications until the deadline. Registration of absence from the department
We
again remind that ALL employees with more than 20% position should ALWAYS
notify absence from the institute of 1 day or more. The institute's
registration form for absence
must be used – and it doesn't take long. This applies to all absences,
like vacations, work travel, illness and working from home or elsewhere in
the city. As far as it is possible, a contact number should be provided for
all absences not due to vacation or illness. A mobile phone number is preferred, alternatively phone number to hotel, visiting
institution and so on. This is so the department can be able to make contact
or pass on contact from others about matters that are important and urgent.
This also means that it is important to provide information about the
destination so that time zone differences can be taken into account. Workshop - ERC grants
NFR is arranging
workshops to inform and motivate you about European Research Council
Starting, Consolidator, Advanced and Synergy Grants. The workshop is also
intended to provide training on how to formulate and write a good ERC
proposal. The course wil be held in Bergen on 8th
June 2012. More
information and registration. Other Starting and Consolidator grant
workshops will be held in: ·
Oslo June 7th. More
information and registration. ·
Trondheim June 19th. More
information and registration. ·
Advanced Grant:
Oslo August 23rd. More information will be published here.
Please note that the Starting Grant will most
probably be split into 2 streams with separate call announcements and
submission deadlines: ·
Starting Grant: 2-7 years after PhD ·
Consolidator Grant: 7-12 years after PhD Expected dates for call announcements -
submission deadlines: ·
ERC-2013-StG: 10 July 2012 - 17 October
2012 ·
ERC-2013-AdG: 10 July 2012 - 22
November 2012 !!!! PLEASE NOTE THAT THE DEADLINE IS
EARLIER COMPARED TO PREVIOUS CALL ANNOUNCEMENT CYCLES!!!!
·
ERC-2013-SyG: 10 October 2012 - 10
January 2013 ·
ERC-2013-CoG: 7 November 2012 -
21 February 2013 !!!! PLEASE NOTE THAT
THIS IS A NEW STREAM TO BE INTRODUCED THIS YEAR WITH A SEPARATE CALL
PUBLICATION DATE AND SUBMISSION DEADLINE!!!!! Changes in the budgets for the various grants
are also proposed (€): ·
Starting Grant: 1 500 000 ·
Consolidator Grant: 2 000 000 ·
Advanced Grant: 2 500 000 ·
Synergy Grant: 15 000 000 Researchers may only submit applications to one
call published in a Work
Programme as opposed to previous years where the restriction was only one
application per calender year. The Ocean of Tomorrow 2013 I EU FP7 2013
The
European Commission has published an “Orientation
Paper” (containing information which is expected to be published in the
FP7 2013 Work Programmes) with information on “The
Ocean of Tomorrow 2013: Joining Research Forces to Meet Challenges in Ocean
Management” joint call. It should be noted that the Orientation Paper is a
working document which has not yet been endorsed by
the European Commission. Indicative budgetary information has been removed
and contents are still subject to change. The final version
of the 2013 Work Programmes (with the final
information on the Oceans of Tomorrow 2013 call) are expected to be
published in around early to mid-July 2012. This
Oceans of Tomorrow 2013 call is expected to be a joint call between the FP7
Co-operation themes on: · Food, Agriculture and Fisheries,
and Biotechnology (FAFB/KBBE); · Nanosciences, Nanotechnologies, Materials and
New Production Technologies (NMP); · Environment (including Climate
Change); · Transport (including Aeronautics);
and · Energy. It
follows on from other FP7 joint calls on ‘The Oceans of Tomorrow’ in previous
years. The Orientation Paper contains details of four topics which are
expected to be included in the Oceans of Tomorrow 2013 call: · OCEAN 2013.1 - Biosensors for real
time monitoring of biohazard and man made chemical contaminants in the marine
environment; · OCEAN 2013.2 - Innovative
multifunctional sensors for in-situ monitoring of marine environment and
related maritime activities; · OCEAN 2013.3 - Innovative
antifouling materials for maritime applications; and · OCEAN 2013.4 - Innovative
transport and deployment systems for the offshore wind energy sector. A single
stage evaluation process is expected to be used. STUDENTS
