The project “SInnoPSis – ERA Chair in Science and Innovation Policy & Studies”, has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme. The ERA Chair aims to bring together excellent academics from the linked scientific departments and consolidate all related research activities at the University of Cyprus (UCY). More information about SInnoPSis can be found at newdev.ucy.ac.cy.

The ERA Chair holder is accompanied by a group of young scientists in the field of Science and Innovation. SInnoPSis aims to grow into a multidisciplinary research centre that facilitates cross-fertilization across different departments, as well as gradually upgrade research and teaching activities in the fields of Meta-Science and Economics of Science. The problem of understanding how scientific knowledge creation works is of great interest for Biomedical Sciences, Psychology, Economics & Management, Social and Political Sciences but also for Philosophy and the Humanities.

Meta-research is a very active field of research, which has developed into a new discipline.  University of Cyprus has the potential to grow into a strong actor in meta-research and Open Science.

SInnoPSis is inviting all UCY faculty who would like to interact with its members to the SInnoPSis Inaugural Workshop on Monday, September 26.  Please see the full program here.

Best Regards,

On behalf of the SInnoPSis group.
