Enlighten Your Research @ EaP 2018
The 3rd Enlighten Your Research (EYR) programme for the Eastern Partnership Connect project is now accepting project proposals!
The Eastern Partnership (EaP) is a regional and multilateral initiative between the EU and its six Eastern partners: Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, the Republic of Moldova and Ukraine. The partnership aims to provide support and assistance for reforms in the region in the fields of democracy, human rights, market economy, sustainability and governance.
EYR@EaP is a programme that promotes the use of computer network resources to foster international collaborations and accelerate the research and discovery process. To further promote the benefits of these resources to researchers, we challenge researchers to stretch the boundaries of their science and collaborate with other countries to perform experiments enabled by the national research and education network (NREN) infrastructures, services and support.
We would especially like to invite high-performance computing users and researchers working cybersecurity to submit project proposals. As well as collaboration in scientific research fields, we now add the possibility for co-operation in the area of musical performance, artistic research and education.
Example infrastructure services and resources that can be requested through the EYR@EaP 2018 programme include (but are not limited to):
- Network services;
- Cultural heritage digitisation;
- Cloud resources;
- Compute resources in collaboration with PRACE, PSNC and SURFsara (if collaborating with a European or Dutch institution);
- Guidance on open data and open science with OpenAIRE.
The final projects for EYR@EaP 2018 will receive:
- support and advice on the use of network services and end-to-end network connectivity;
- connections to e-infrastructure resources through the EaPConnect partners.
Winning applicants will be invited to the Eastern Partnership E-Infrastructure Conference (EaPEC 2018), organized in Chisinau, Moldova (dates and venue to be announced). Here the winners will be able to present their project proposal.
Deadline: March 16, 2018, 24:00 CET.
