Important results from the project
The project meets our planned goals, submitting a strong MSCA-DN proposal. In the MSCA-DN proposal, we build a consortium with 21 partners which deeply involved in the development of the research project proposal. More specifically, we 1) develop an excellent research plan, 2) develop a unique training programme, and 3) develop a plan for amplifying the impact of the project.
Expected long term effects
The results from the project are significant for the research group/consortium in the long term. The intersectional consortium enhances knowledge transfer between the academic and commercial sectors. Meanwhile, the data and technique sharing within the consortium can significantly increase the possibility of future funding applications, as well as the feasibility of research conducted by different members.
Approach and implementation
The project went very well as planned, with two workshops organized. During the first workshop, a detailed research project description, secondments, the supervisor team for the proposed PhD students, and detailed education plans were discussed with the 15 project leaders. In the second workshop, we developed plans to amplify the project´s impacts and enhance its sustainability. Additionally, a consulting company was hired to polish the proposal to make it more attractive to evaluators.
