Objective
"The proposed project aims to support the ScC Chair and Vice-Chairs in the efficient and timely achievement of the ScC objectives in 2010. It will support and assist Professor H. Nowotny, (Chair of the ERC ScC), Professor D. Esteve (Vice-Chair of the ERC ScC) and another member of the Scientific Council (to be elected as Vice-Chair of the ERC ScC) in their diverse responsibilities which include the achievement of efficient and effective functioning of the ScC as a policy making body, its integrated operation together with the ERC Executive Agency (ERCEA), and effective interfacing with the scientific community, other funding agencies and the political institutions of the European Union and beyond. The project will provide administrative, operational and research support ranging from secretarial tasks to assistance in developing policy papers, related to the work of the Chair and Vice-Chairs of the ERC Scientific Council for a period of ten months. The potential impact of the project will be to ensure an efficient and well-managed operation of the ERC ScC. By providing high-level local support for the EcC Chairman who is based at Wiener Wissenschafts Forschungs und Technologiefonds (WWTF) Vienna (Austria), and the two Vice-Chairs who are based at Commissariat Energie Atomique (CEA) - Saclay (France) and another institution, the project will complement the activities of and allow efficient interfacing with the ERCEA. Overall, the project is expected to contribute significantly to the implementation of the Ideas specific programme. The proposed project will be a continuation and expansion of the ongoing project ""ERCSC-CHAIRS-SUP2009—Support to the Chair and Vice-Chairs of the ERC Scientific Council 2009"" Project No. 243387."
