ProgrammesmERCury, the network of National Contact Points (NCPs) for the European Research Council (ERC), is organising a webinar for researchers interested in the Advanced Grant. The event will guide participants from shaping a truly “groundbreaking” idea to understanding the evaluation process of the European Research Council (ERC). The programme includes insights into the ERC’s approach to frontier research, a session dedicated to the evaluation process, and testimonials from Advanced grantees across Social Sciences and Humanities (SH), Physical Sciences and Engineering (PE) and Life Sciences (LS) domains, with the participation of ERC Scientific Officers and ERC Panel Members.
Registration is open until 25 April 2026 registration form. Live stream is available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ibXILATWulU
All information related to this webinar is available in the announcement on the mERCury website.

The MareGraph project, ‘Towards an Interoperable Marine Knowledge Graph’, obtained funding under the Digital Europe topic ‘OPEN-AI – Public Sector Open Data for AI and Open Data Platform’. The project will increase the semantic, technical, and legal interoperability of three selected high-valued datasets (HVDs) all maintained by the Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), which is one of the four partners of the project. This will allow the onboarding of essential marine datasets in the Common European Data Spaces. As such MareGraph will provide a structural component in the digital transition of the marine landscape. The numerous impacts of the project will benefit our seas globally in old and new ways to come.
