The KORANET project is organising a scientific workshop in Korea in February 2010. This event will coincide with the publication of Koranet Pilot Joint Call. It will be the occasion to create new partnerships and reinforce existing ones with the aim of building strong consortia for projects submission.

The theme for KORANET Pilot Joint Call will be "Research for life-long health", with the following sub-topics: Health, Technologies (including biotechnology, engineering, materials, nanotechnology, ICT and robotics) and Social Sciences.

Researchers interested in the EU-Korea cooperation can fill in a profile form and send it, before November 30, to Ms Aurélie Pachkoff.

Not all scientists sending back their profiles forms will travel to Korea (travel costs will be reimbursed), but the procedure will allow speakers to be selected. The replies received will be integrated into a partnering catalogue which will be freely available on Koranet website and distributed at the event.
