Each member has a different approach depending on his or her specialization: science, law or humanities.

I approve the call for the inclusion of the human and social sciences under the Sixth Framework Research Programme.

It is a question of the effective application of the decisions taken at the level of the European institutions.

Balanced development of research is needed which will also cover the fields of political, social and human sciences.

We would like to see more attention paid to the subject of sciences and society and more support given to the human and social sciences.

I also have in mind Mr Verheugen's call for support for all policies relating to enlargement, notably in the area of life sciences.

The life sciences constitute a distinct discipline and the fact that the Sixth Framework Programme has recognised this is a great step forward.

entries in all disciplines: literature, social and human sciences, natural and exact sciences, art, history and so forth.

It divides its support into four major divisions: Humanities and Social Sciences; Mathematics, Natural and Engineering Sciences; Biology and Medicine.

First of all, I am very glad that the human and social sciences will henceforth be regarded not just as a means of research but also as an end.

I would also like to say that I am delighted the life sciences have been recognised as a scientific subject and are not regarded simply as an instrument for other sciences.

What is more, the ERC needs to support at European level research in all scientific fields, from specific industry-driven research to social and human sciences.

The fact that human and social sciences are now becoming a field of research in their own right means that we have reached a turning point in research in Europe. I think that needs pointing out.
