Schools
• Challenges:
 form HR in an interdisciplinary area that is expanding at great speed
 enhance the formation of students and young researchers
 put them in contact with the most recent novelties in the area.
• Solution:
 Short duration Thematic Schools with courses and practical activities
offered by distinguished scientists.
 The Centre counts with excellence in both countries
 Integrating Aspect.
Workshops and Schools:
 direct contact between the scientific communities
 opportunities for the formulation and development of joint research
projects, joint use of equipment and better HR formation
Needs:
 Support for scientific visits of short and medium duration (< 6 months)
 Scholarships for PhD (sandwich) and Post Doc.
 Support to Joint Research Projects
Plan for 2009
 eight Schools (4 in each country)
 one workshop each semester, one in Brazil and one in Argentina
 Working Group on Intellectual Property
 Evaluation of the activities.
Participation of other countries
 Cuba, Uruguay, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru (+Chile)
 Associated Country?
