Sascha Sauer
Dr. Sascha Sauer, Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics

GABO:mi is an essential and well-appreciated partner of the European Sequencing and Genotyping Infrastructure (ESGI), an EU-FP7 Capacities project.
The scientists of ESGI are very happy to have GABO:mi as a competent and highly committed partner with complementary expertise.

more 

The management of such complex European program, which integrates three different funding models, requires substantial support in a number of administrative issues. The interaction of GABO:mi coworkers with research institutional administrative staff and scientists is characterised by friendly professionalism. This allows the scientists to mainly focus on the scientific aspects of ESGI and smoothly progress with working schedules.

"The project HIALINE, Health Impacts of Airborne Allergen Information Network, studies yearly occuring natural phenomena i.e. pollenflight. Thus time limits are crucial. GABO:mi always assisted us in obtaining the yearly deadlines. This was especially important in the submission phase of the application, which without GABO:mi would not have been successful. Besides the professional help, the 24h a day availabilty and active anticipation, the pleasant atmosphere made the work with GABO:mi more than a useful symbiosis: GABO:mi is a great help. Indeed, as a coordinator I can focus on science! [...]"

"Also in another application for a european tender GABO-mi assisted with thorough legal knowledge on crititical points, and finished the application on their own, including submission, long after the scientist stopped working on the application. We are very happy with the GABO-mi and can warmly recommend them to anyone planning a EU submission."

"As the coordinator of an FP7 funded consortium I like to concentrate mainly on the progress of the scientific projects. In this prospect it is of tremendous help to have a partner such as GABO:mi who aids in all aspects of project coordination. During the application and negotiation period or for organization of project meetings GABO:mi members provide all the necessary support in a constructive and always friendly manner."

 

Tine Stensbol
Dr. Tine Bryan Stensbøl, Lundbeck A/S; Prof. Shitij Kapur, University College London

"Organising grants is hard enough, especially so, when it is the very first application of its kind to a brand new initiative where the grantors themselves are learning how it should all work as we go along. In this complex effort, which is now called NEWMEDS, we have been very pleased with the support from GABO:mi. To do all of this in any project is hard enough, but, to do it across multiple universities and multiple industrial partners is quite an achievement. [...]"

"As coordinators of this proposal we have been very pleased with the level, professionalism and the personality of the support we have received. And since we have worked with several individuals at GABO:mi in this context – we see it as quality of their team rather than just a lucky individual interaction. We can recommend them to those who seek similar support and would surely use them again."

Ulrich Dirnagl
Prof. Dr. Ulrich Dirnagl, Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin
"GABO:mi provided us with great support when applying for a large collaborative project in the 7th Framework Programme. GABO:mi managed to 'tame' 16 European partners, beneath them four companies. Furthermore, GABO:mi succeeded in persuading them to high quality contributions in due time. […]"more 

"Another factor that extremely supported myself as the academic coordinator was that GABO:mi still kept their good mood and style when it came to inevitable 'last minute' problems. The creation of the very complex budget, questions of formatting, etc. were taken over by GABO:mi, so that I as the applicant could totally concentrate on the fundamental, i.e. the content of the application. I would really like to recommend GABO:mi as the project management partner for EU applications."

"Albert Einstein once said that the aim of science is to make things as simple as possible, but not simpler. [...]"

more 

"Grant applications are the first step in the quest to understand the world around us, a world that is very complex at European level. GABO:mi's managed to reduce the complexity by constructing “simplified" templates, enable cooperation between over 100 researchers and provide text, figures and tables, that was relevant (capturing essential aspects of the application), simple (so that it can be understood by scientists), beautiful (so that other scientists are willing to work with it), and flexible (so that other scientists can further develop it). I wish that the application was only the beginning of a long and successful collaboration. It was a pleasure doing business with GABO:mi."

"The collaboration with GABO has proven to be very constructive and hence, hugely productive....[…]"

"With friendly persuasiveness, all participants were agitated to hand in their project descriptions and furthermore, very good hints regarding the structural conditions were given. The principle of "risk-sharing" when completing an application leads to the creation of a special relationship of trust, to which both parties then contribute their own best. Therefore, I can already state that the application phase was fun and hopefully makes success reachable."

Niklaus Andratschke
Dr. Nicolaus Andratschke, Technische Universität München

"We are glad to have such a competent, supportive and friendly partner like GABO:mi in our consortium to give us maximum support in managing an EU research project. [...]"

more 

"With professional care we are being guided through all the haazles of general project management and specific EU regulatories and requirements for reporting and budgeting. I only can recommend to have GABO:mi on board from the beginning on when even thinking of writing a EU proposal."

Prof. Dr. Ulrich Hegerl
Prof. Dr. Ulrich Hegerl, Sprecher des Kompetenznetzes Depression
"I am looking back at a cooperation of over 6 years with the GABO:mi team. I had aimed at this collaboration due to the numerous management and IT tasks that are linked to the project. These tasks were carried out by GABO:mi with great attention to detail and competence. […]"

"Besides these purely professional aspects, I would like to stress the style of communication which seems to me just as important. On the part of the network of competence, the feeling of having found a fair and pleasant partner in GABO:mi developed rapidly. GABO:mi is a partner who does not only do "their job" reliably, but also identifies with the content of the project and hopes for its success. As a result, GABO:mi managed to integrate a number of important proposals, suggestions and support; GABO:mi was a precious consultant when taking important decisions and therefore has contributed hugely to the success of the network of competence "Depression, Suicidalities". We are pleased to have GABO:mi as a partner in the third funding period."

Anneke Buehler
Dr. Anneke Bühler, Institut für Therapieforschung München
„Based on my experience, GABO:mi should be called ACPRIFC: absolutely competent, professional, reliable and besides that, incredibly friendly and cooperative. The project would have never been as successful without GABO:mi!"

Tim Pfeiffer
Dipl.-Psych. Tim Pfeiffer, European Alliance against Depression
"GABO:mi helps us to have a peek out of our own personal bounds and still concentrates on the feasible. […]"

“We constantly experience those exemplary manners which combine individual treatment with professional distance. In addition to that, there is reliability and helpful persistence. And a great fun factor, which has indeed saved me a few times."

Herta Flor
Prof. Dr. Herta Flor, Universität Heidelberg
"Our collaboration with GABO:mi has proven to be generative and helpful. Not only when it is about overcoming bureaucratic as well as organisational barriers concerning process organisation of EU projects, GABO:mi proves to be a friendly and competent partner. […]"more 

"The fast and precise completion of complex and organisational processes as well as the good interactive cooperation between GABO:mi and the employees in charge for respective projects will be called upon by us in future."
