Programmes MSCAYesterday a joint statement ‘We need much more MSCA!’ was published. The currently 13 organisations that endorse the statement lament the lack of MSCA in Mario Draghi’s report the Future of European Competitiveness and the Mission Letters for the proposed Executive Vice-President for People, Skills and Preparedness Roxana Mînzatu (letter), and Commissioner for Startups, Research, and Innovation Ekaterina Zaharieva (letter). In the statement emphasis is laid on the lasting impact of the programme on the careers of researchers, research, doctoral and postdoctoral training in Europe and the universities, research institutions and non-academic organisations. They urge the European Commission, Parliament and Council to recognise the MSCA's invaluable contributions by increasing its budget, while maintaining its purely bottom-up research character.

Autoship is, as the name suggests, an acronym for autonomous ship. Just like with self-driving cars, the possibilities of an unmanned boat seem endless. It can create more efficient freight transport, around the clock deliveries and these are just a few of the examples. The project has two societal challenges.
At first, De Vlaamse Waterweg was a bit hesitant as their experience with FP7 or Horizon 2020 projects was limited and they had not been very successful up until then. The fact that they were already doing basic research on the topic of autonomous boats, and the administrative help of NCP FLanders helped De Vlaamse waterweg to cross the line and get involved.
