Work and research focus:
Coordination of projects including scientific, partnership and financial management. Since working at ZSI I have been coordinating projects supported by FP7, Horizon 2020, Southeast- Europe and Danube Transnational Cooperation programme. In all cases my work is supported by a team of colleagues at ZSI. In addition I have been contributing to a wider number of projects and covering a broad variety of topics. Finally I have been also publishing co-developed works including strategies and roadmaps. I am also involved in reporting processes and the assessment of deliverables, sometimes also doing evaluations for calls addressing bilateral cooperation. Research interest include RTD policy delivery processes and evaluation, governance arrangements for conducting research at universities, managment of research infrastructure, international STI cooperation in all its variations.

Also the monitoring of the joint call and several analytical reports were conducted. He is/was as well involved in the FP7 international cooperation projects IncoNet EECA and IncoNet CA/SC performing analysis on EU cooperation instruments, as well contributing to the improvement of policy relevant S&T indicators through training activities. Moreover, in the follow up projects IncoNet EaP and IncoNet CA he develops a roadmap for cooperation in the evaluation domain of key funding agencies in the ENP countries, organises Policy Mix Peer Reviews and contributes to a thematic benchmarking of RTDI organisations. He is also involved in the FP7 projects DANCERS, MIRRIS and supports the financial administration of the Danube-INCO.net.
