It is recommended that you discuss your draft application with the facility provider before final submission (see the instructions in the ‘Call for Proposals’).
Short summary of rules and conditions:
- Proposals should include the scientific purpose of the study, the relevance of using the facility and a brief description of the proposed experiments. An independent user selection panel will review proposals.
- Access to the facility is provided free of charge to the users and includes all infrastructural, logistical, technical and scientific support (including training) that is normally provided to external users of the facility.
- To benefit, the team leader and the majority of members of the research team must be conducting their research in an eligible state (i.e. states of the European Union and Associated States) that is outside from the country of the facility. However, researchers from the country of the facility may participate in such a research team.
- The research teams are expected to publish the results of their work in the open literature. All publications should include an explicit acknowledgment of theFP7 Research Infrastructure Programme of EC.
- Details on the eligibility conditions, user selection procedure, and rules of access can be found at
