Specialized support that centralizes guidance for researchers throughout the entire lifecycle of European projects.
The Fundación Jiménez Díaz Health Research Institute (IIS-FJD) has launched a new specialized resource in response to its objective of strengthening the Institute’s European dimension in a context of growth and institutional consolidation within the international research landscape. This service provides a specialized framework for support in European projects, covering everything from the identification of funding opportunities to guidance on the preparation and management of international research projects.
Integrated within the R&D&I Management Area, under the Projects Unit, this team has been created to strengthen institutional support for IIS-FJD researchers, increase the Institute’s competitiveness in European programmes, and enhance its international visibility.
What does this service offer?
• Identification of opportunities: searching for and disseminating relevant European calls for proposals.
• Proposal preparation: guidance on tailoring projects to the requirements of each call.
• Project management: support with the implementation, monitoring, and financial and administrative reporting of funded projects.
• International outreach: participation in European networks, platforms and events to enhance the Institute’s visibility.
