Programmes MSCA

As part of their 30th anniversary in 2026, the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) are teaming up with Frontiers for Young Minds (FYM) to publish a special collection on “Young researchers who will change the world”. FYM is a non-profit linked to the scientific journal Frontiers. Its goal is to make cutting-edge science discoveries available to younger audiences.

The MSCA is looking for 12 excellent abstracts (between 200 and 300 words) from young MSCA fellows that will later be turned into 12 engaging short papers (1500 words) with the help of young students between the ages of 8 to 15. This call is for young MSCA fellows (PhD candidates, postdoctoral researchers or research and innovation staff). The submissions deadline is 31 July 2025, 12.00, CEST. 

Find more information about the call, evaluation criteria, previous FYM articles and application form in this news article on the MSCA website.

Autoship - a new and durable way of freight transport

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.
