Abstract:

In this talk and subsequent discussion, I´d like to share what I´ve learned from 3 years working as coordinator of the Materials for Energy and Environment subarea of the Research State Agency (Agencia Estatal de Investigación, AEI). In order to illustrate how the AEI works, I will first explain how the evaluation of two of the major calls work, first the Knowledge Generation (previously known as “Plan Estatal”) and then, the Ramón y Cajal program. I will list some of the typical positive and negative comments that projects and applications receive, which can serve as dos and don´ts in your future applications. I will also briefly mention important issues in the justification of the projects for the progress/final reports. After that, my intention is to leave enough time for discussion on general aspects, question and answers.
