HORIZON EUROPE
Canadian association to Horizon Europe has made the world’s biggest R&D funding source available to Canadian institutions. However, Horizon Europe does come with a number of unique challenges and strongly differs from Canadian funding mechanisms. All the steps of submitting a successful HE application – from finding the right call and partners to filling out the application and ensuring all the paperwork is in order – can be complex.
Since 2012, I have been assisting with EU projects at all levels, including developing guidelines in Brussels, evaluation, and assistance with submissions (including multiple ERC Advanced grants and large consortia grants). If you are considering applying for a Horizon Europe project, or joining a consortium, please feel free to reach out for a free introductory 30 minute session.
OPEN
RESEARCH
The global research pendulum has swung towards open scholarship. UNESCO, the EU and the Canadian government have all made strong commitments to funding and supporting open research and there is considerable evidence that openness doesn’t just support accessibility and equity, but also innovation. The Canadian Tri-Agencies have also reevaluated their open access policies.
There are undeniable advantages to implementing open research practices, but they can also come with their own challenges. I have nearly a decade of experience in designing and implementing organisational and national open science and research data management policies and have completed open science audits, policy development and support in Europe and Canada.
I would be happy to support you in finding the right solutions for your institution or project.
RESEARCH
COACH
Researchers are experts in their fields, but sometimes struggle to communicate the importance of their work to non-experts. I have a track record - including successful ERC Advanced grant applications - of assisting top researchers in a variety of fields (biomedical sciences, engineering, humanities) in distilling the most pertinent aspects of their work for grants applications and communication activities. I can ensure that your work receives the attention it deserves, translating into funding and research program sustainability.
