ABSTRACT

The course aims at providing the future Principal Investigators with the necessary understanding of the research and innovation system at various levels and the role of the main actors in the design of policies, regulations and priorities for the research and innovation. Global, continental (i.e. European) and national research systems will be presented with a special focus on the elements of coordination and consistency. Main research schemes, programmes and funding instruments will be presented and discussed. Among other matters, the programme will touch upon topics such as International Research Organisations and Research Infrastructures, Intellectual Property Rights, impact and research assessment, management of research. The analysis of latest developments in research policies, e.g. mission-oriented policies, research on societal challenges, open science and innovation will give an insight into the new trends and the future priorities that scientific research should contribute to address.
