An analysis of 6707 Horizon 2020 ERC projects gives a picture of what projects have been funded per scientific sub domain and the contribution of ERC funded research to three key policy areas of the European Union. The mapping exercise has been compiled in these factsheets:

 

  • European Green Deal 14% of all funded projects contribute to the EGD, of which 9% to the Boosting climate action area
  • Europe fit for the digital age 10% of all funded projects contribute to this policy area, of which 4% to AI

BEAT-AF - Ground-Breaking Electroporation-based intervention for Atrial Fibrillation treatment

The Horizon2020 project BEAT-AF brings together 9 European renowned clinical centres in France, Belgium, Czechia, Germany and Austria. Together, the consortium strives to revolutionize Atrial Fibrillation (AF) treatment through catheter ablation and contribute to decrease the huge burden of AF in Europe. The BEAT-AF project kicked off in 2021 and will run until 2026. The department of electrophysiology of the AZ Sint-Jan Hospital in Bruges is partner in the project and has so far contributed to the pre-clinical development, the first in man studies and first registries of the revolutionary AF treatment put forward by the consortium. The first pilot studies show that the treatment is safe, effective and efficient.
