The criteria for awarding these actions are, in addition to scientific excellence, the real integrative dimension demonstrated by the multidisciplinary nature and involvement of several MIO teams, the leading role of the MIO in the project, the ability to support the scientific team set up towards large-scale national or international funding. The request must fall within one or more transversal axes or poles of the MIO, and in this case it must of course be argued and previously discussed and validated within the TAs and Poles to which it refers, or have the dimension and ambition to propose a new transversal axis over several years.
