Exploring synergies between neurosciences and information technologies
Enable the construction of artefacts that “live and grow”:self-adapt and evolve beyond pure programming
Demonstrate adaptability and growth in the real world Do not simply extrapolate from already established
research fields, such as neural networks or genetic algorithms

Systems v Components– Too often we focus on components, leaving to others to build

Complexity / Self organisation– In hardware

Knowledge from uncertainty
The atomic/molecular scale– Alternative means of fabrication

Mastering the atoms
Merging of the “made” and the “born”

Three important conceptsThree important concepts
Eligibility – formal/legal eligibility requirements (deadline, ..)
– general eligibility requirement (ethics, scope, ..)
Evaluation criteria – Scoring against five FP5 criteria (0-5 each, threshold to be achieved in
cases)
Score– A weighted score will be calculated for a preliminary ranking order to be
discussed in evaluation panel
– An overall score 0 - 5 will be finally given to each proposal
The roots of innovationThe roots of innovation
EligibilityEligibility
1. The Commission first checks formal eligibility:– timely receipt
– eligible consortium
– format, completeness and anonymity of Part B
Non-eligible proposals do not go into evaluation
– scope, right Area, cross Area/Programme issues
2. Evaluators advise on general eligibility/relevance:– scope
– ethical principles
– in line with Community policy
Proposals found to be ineligible drop out of the evaluation
The roots of innovationThe roots of innovation
Evaluation criteriaEvaluation criteria
1. Scientific/technological quality and innovation – assessed by reading only Part B of proposal (anonymous)
2. Community added value and contribution to EC policies
3. Contribution to Community social objectives
4. Economic development and S&T prospects– assessed by reading Part C of proposal or Part B for FET-Open short
proposals
5. Resources, partnership and management– assessed by reading Part C of proposal and with budgetary information from
Part A
No other criteria come into consideration!
