'Big science' projects to get legal aid from EU

Abstract:
Joint programming. The Commission plans a communication in the second half of 2008 on ways to coordinate R&D programmes among EU member states. At present, each capital has its own R&D grant agencies that operate largely independently of one other - resulting in such anomalies as 109 different projects funded across Europe for the study of one bacterium, and 29 different R&D programmes for nanotechnology (in 27 EU member states). Mochan said the intention isn't to increase Brussels' role in funding, but rather to assist joint planning so that duplication is avoided and Europe gets more R&D results for its money.
