Proposing observations with the European VLBI Network

The European VLBI Network (EVN) is currently the most sensitive VLBI array in the world (its collecting area is about a hundred thousand square meters, or 1/10 of the planned Square Kilometer Array). 
I will give an overview of the EVN and the kind of science being done with this radio interferometric array, which essentially goes from Solar System studies up to quasars at high redshift.
As a member of the EVN Programme Committee, I will give some practical advice on how to prepare a proposal that has chances of getting approved, and observed. Hopefully, by the end of the talk you will look at VLBI from a friendlier perspective than you might had before, and will think of using the EVN for your own science goals.
