U.S-European Commission Collaboration: Policies for Research and Innovation

这个为期两年的奖项支持美欧在研究和创新政策方面的合作研究活动，参与者包括乔治亚理工学院的Susan Cozzens和法国巴黎国立桥与桥学院（ENPC）的Philippe Laredo。PI和美国同事将参与欧盟卓越网络“知识社会的科学和技术”（PRIME）的活动。他们的参与有望促成合作研究。PRIME的研究领域包括：改变科学技术的研究制度；区域和中小企业的重要性日益增强；促进知识流通；改变公共部门的研究制度；重新思考欧洲公共创新的“引擎”；在决策过程中整合多个参与者。与欧洲网络的参与和合作有望通过开发新思想和工具加强美国的科学和技术政策研究。

This two-year award supports US-European cooperative research activities on policies for research and innovation involving Susan Cozzens of the Georgia Institute of Technology and Philippe Laredo of the Ecole Nationale des Ponts et Chaussees (ENPC) in Paris, France. The PI and US colleagues will participate in activities of a European Union Network of Excellence, "Science and Technology in the Knowledge-Based Society," called PRIME. Their participation is expected to lead to collaborative research.PRIME's research areas include: changing research regimes in science and technology; the growing importance of regions and small and medium-sized enterprises; fostering knowledge circulation; changing public sector research systems; rethinking the public "engine" to innovation in Europe; and integrating multiple actors in policy-making. Participation in and collaboration with the European network is expected to strengthen US science and technology policy research through the development of new ideas and tools.
