If you are new to Horizon 2020, or even if you already know the potential opportunities for U.S. researchers, this workshop will provide:  (1) an introduction to this €80 billion ($90 billion) research program funded by the European Commission, and (2) hands-on training in finding appropriate funding opportunities, registering your institution in the electronic system, and suggestions for resolving common issues in the grant agreement.  Finally, like any government grant program, there are restrictions on who can apply and how the money can be spent.  This workshop will answer all of these questions as well as provide an opportunity to meet with European research managers who are very experienced in dealing with European Commission grants.
