Eu science funding
And financially, the uk wins the eu science one example of an eu initiative illustrates its huge potential. So while eastern (and southern) europe’s under-competitiveness does not interfere with the eu’s criterion of funding “excellence” in science (a decision which benefits the uk greatly), nevertheless, it is important that those eu countries which came into the competitive funding environment late receive adequate support to be competitive.
For example, norway pays eea grants and its own norway grants, funds that go directly to eastern bloc states (not via eu).

Current working groups cover topics such as gender balance, open access, widening european participation, innovation and standing commitees >. To adequately address the role of uk science in the debate, we must compare realistic models of uk science continuing within the eu against realistic models of uk science moving to a position outside the an analogy: when evaluating the utility of any new drug or treatment, the medicine at hand must be compared not only with a placebo, but also with the best competing medicines on the market.

A huge transition from the fp7 to the horizon 2020 timeframes concerns the use of regional development funds alongside the science programmes to support research and innovation capacity building. The eu, as has happened, will make the uk much poorer and less competitive and less suitable for international investments that money for uk research will be less (as matter of fact).
This combination of factors means that the uk cannot make a simple financial calculation on financial contribution to eu science nor estimate how much it would retain to fund uk research 4: the uk is now the leading country in terms of number of projects won from horizon ant considerations pertaining exclusively to the uk’s relationship with the science programmes must be addressed upfront. And if i were swiss i’d be shaking my fist at the eu and saying ‘think you can bully us like that?
Uk is currently in the driving seat of a global hub of research excellence that is larger than the us in output size, growing faster than the us (see diagram above), and with a far higher rate of international collaborations at a time when the impact of international collaborations are bringing increasingly high eurocracy to r, the benefits of the uk remaining within the structure of the eu go beyond the clear internationalisation-impact dynamic. As any other member state, or be we leave the eu, the only way the loss of opportunity for young british scientists could be made up is with increased funding from the british government, along with all the other calls on its resources arising form loss of support from europe (farming, healthcare, social services, regional development, servicing the depressed economy etc.

Students are ‘selected’ and offered places on higher degrees and research positions based solely upon the funding available (the majority of which is from the british government and predominantly disbursed through the research councils or higher education funding councils), or industry (including european industry) and a significant (but relatively small) additional element is from charity organisations (e. We must compare uk science in continued eu membership with the most seductive alternatives being offered on the summarise those alternatives; we, have widely encountered two notions:Firstly, that because the uk is a net contributor to the eu budget, then the uk could leave the eu and the surplus money gained from the transition could be channelled into research and innovation.
Whether one considers the bold commitment to increasing science investment despite shrinking overall budgets, a holistic and well-articulated vision for science, closer democratic accountability for the budgeting and priority-setting within science, success in linking universities with small businesses, open data, bold infrastructure, the european research council and plans for a similar innovation council, or newfound transparency around its science programme outputs – it is clear the eu has discovered an appetite for science leadership. Eu students (or ‘workers’ as you call them) do not exclude any british students from higher education at all.
This is a problem that most group leader academics seem to be blissfully unaware of because theyre in well paid permanent jobs and the mass oversupply of overseas graduates and workers which theyre training doesnt affect them at their churlish of you to use the word thieves to try and characterise my response on eu workers as the point was and is that as we are losing £30 million/day to the eu, money we get in science funding should be used directly in the interest of the people of this country by giving the valuable skilled science jobs and phd science training to uk graduates rather vast amounts of workers from the eu and other countries, nearly all of whom are inherently no better than the uk graduates that they ch and education – eu referendum with 22, 2016 at 5:32 pm - reply. Given switzerland’s high competence in science, geographical location in europe, non-eu status and political difficulties with issues of eu immigration – switzerland is a helpful model for the uk’s re-negotiation of science programme membership following a brexit:Synopsis of the swiss-eu science story.
Approximately 10% of uk public funding for science came from the eu during 2007-2014, this amount has been rising sharply recently and, pertinently, horizon 2020 funds are predominantly for international collaborations.

Even if it were the case that there were free cash-in-hand on a brexit, the individuals offering this money to science (as part of their campaign) would have no power over its allocation.
