Horizon Europe

The European Commission’s flagship research and innovation event aims to bring together policymakers, researchers, innovators, business leaders and representatives of civil society. It is designed to look at how research and innovation can strengthen Europe’s competitiveness, resilience and technological sovereignty. The programme is expected to include high-level policy discussions, breakout sessions, networking opportunities, award ceremonies and exchanges with EU Science Counsellors.

The seventh edition of the European Research & Innovation days will look at topics such as freedom of scientific research, support for research talent, investment in research and development, technological leadership, support for innovative companies, research and technology infrastructures, international cooperation, citizen engagement with science, and better alignment of European and national research policies and investments.

Across two days, participants are expected to be able to join policy debates, interactive sessions and networking activities. The event is scheduled to open with Commissioner Ekaterina Zaharieva

Detailed programme and time schedule and speaker line-up are to be published later.

Testimonial

ERC grants awarded to professor Inez Germeys

Professor Inez Germeys leads the Center for Contextual Psychiatry at KU Leuven, which is a large multi-disciplinary research group focusing on the interaction between the person and the environment in the development of psychopathology. She has received a European Research Council (ERC) Consolidator grant (INTERACT) and Proof of Concept grant (IMPACT). With these grants professor Germeys and her team researched a new mobile self-management therapy for patients with a psychotic disorder. The Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in Daily Life (ACT-DL) was further developed for the clinical environment. In line with that the Horizon 2020 IMMERSE project aims to thoroughly evaluate strategies, processes, and outcomes of implementing a digital mobile mental health solution.
