Broadly based on ERRAC advice to the European Commission, the 4th call for Proposals for the FP7 Transport Theme has been recently published by the Commission.
ERRAC organises a number of Pre-Consortium Building meetings for the Rail related Research topics ERRAC priorities in the 4th Call.
The responsible Work package of the ERRAC ROADMAP project will invite all interested partners who have informed ERRAC about their interest to participate in these Pre-Consortium Building meetings. In many cases a number of key players have already drafted some ideas for a future proposal. These ideas will be presented and discussed during these meetings.
Participants to the Pre-Consortium Building meetings are very welcome to contribute to these initial ideas, which will form the basis for the consortium and proposal building (which will not be managed by ERRAC) which shall finally lead to a proposal submission by December 2010.
Here is a planning of some of the next 4th Call Pre-Consortium Building meetings :
- 29/07/2010 Virtual Homologation Noise topic STT.2011.2.5.1
- 06/09/2010 Suicides and Trespasses topic STT.2011.4.1.2
