Abstract
The EU Framework Research Programme (FP) is a major source of competitive marine R & D funding for Irish Researchers. This report describes Irish marine research successes in the first two years (2007-2008) of the seven year 7th Framework Programme (FP7: 2007-2013). Irish researchers are currently participating in 22 collaborative marine research projects worth over €163 million of which €8.8 million goes to Irish researchers by way of grant-aid. This European grant-aid in turn contributes to the implementation of research priorities identified in the national Strategy for Science, Technology and Innovation (SSTI: 2006- 2013) and its marine component, the Sea Change Strategy(2007-2013). The Irish drawdown of EU grant-aid for marine research represents an impressive 10% of the Irish total drawdown over the period 2007-2008.
