Here researchers will discuss how the input from the scientific sessions can be organised, prioritised and worded in order to be used as input to the future work programme of Horizon 2020. Representatives of PEER institutes will lead the writing process after the conference, but workshop participants will be consulted in the process, before the final position papers are delivered to the European Commission by PEER in November 2013.
