EU research ministers lean on Brussels

Article Abstract:

Member states of the European Union are urging the European Commission to impose stricter regulations on research projects that the fifth Framework Programme (FP5) will fund. They are also asking the commission to reduce its proposed emphasis on untargeted generic and basic research. The FP5 has a budget of $13.2 billion and is due to last from 1999 to 2003. The commission is set to produce a final draft of its FP5 proposals before mid-April 1997. The draft will have to be approved by the member states, represented by the Council of Ministers, and the European Parliament.

Collaboration rules should reflect investment

Article Abstract:

European countries wishing to join a collaborative research project must spend sufficient funds on scientific research. The meeting at Florence also discussed the rules for European collaboration with America and Japan so that Europe is treated as an equal partner in global ventures. The attitude of politicians towards collaboration has shifted from political implications to the cost-effectiveness of it. But there is agreement that bureaucratic procedures are time-consuming for scientists.

Britain goes for collaboration in Europe

Article Abstract:

A survey conducted by the British Office of Science and Technology of British scientists receiving grants from the Commission of the European Communities reveals the British scientific community has increasingly come to see itself as part of European science. Nearly all British academic institutions receive money from the EC. The survey also reveals that obtaining grants from Brussels is a difficult process and that recipients are concentrated in the most affluent parts of the country.
