Research Assistance Sample Clauses

Research Assistance the team requires some research assistance and we have budgeted on assistants in equal to 40 % positions (for all five years) that will assist with simple research-related tasks such as e.g. data work, checking references, etc. The research assistants will work with the PI and the post docs on all subprojects. Visiting program: To ensure the success of the project, it is necessary for the core group to maintain close ties with leading researchers who are experts on the fields relevant for the project, but who are not part of the core group (i.e., outside of the local and the international team). Such a visiting program will achieve two aims that are critical for the project to realize its potential: (1) it will give the core group valuable feedback on the various subprojects; (2) it will stimulate academic research and scientific communication around the project theme and, in particular, help disseminate the scientific progress and new insights generated by the project; and (3) it will enable the group to stay in contact with the research community. The dissemination of the scientific results is especially relevant for subprojects C1-C2-C3 where we intend to establish strong links to economists and policy makers in China. The project will cover travel costs and in some cases a per diem. This is a very cost effective way of building the group and propelling the project. 12,000 is allocated annually to the visiting program. These costs are recorded as “Travel cost for Visiting Partners” in the budget below. In the line “Travel cost for Visiting Partners we have also put the travel cost for participants in the two conferences that will be organized for the project.
