Programmes HealthThe European Medicines Agency (EMA) has made available a new clinical trial map, which is now accessible from the public website of the Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS). The map is designed to provide patients and healthcare professionals with easy access to comprehensive, real-time information about clinical trials conducted in their area, increasing access to clinical research in the European Union. Users can look for ongoing trials by geographic area and medical condition. The first version of the map is provided in English. Additional EU languages will be added in the future.
A recording with a demonstration on how to use all the features is available on the EMA website. More information here.
Background: The creation of the map is an action of the Accelerating Clinical Trials in the European Union (ACT EU) initiative workplan for 2025-2026. CTIS includes a public searchable database for healthcare professionals, patients and citizens to deliver the high level of transparency foreseen by the Clinical Trials Regulation. The authorisation and oversight of clinical trials is the responsibility of EU/EEA Member States while EMA is responsible for maintaining CTIS. The European Commission oversees the implementation of the Clinical Trials Regulation.

In Digital Europe, knowledge of the underlying EU policies and legislations is a key element when drafting a proposal, as they play an important role in the “relevance” evaluation criterion. Also for Horizon Europe Cluster 3 (Cybersecurity) and Cluster 4 (Digital), this knowledge can be handy for applicants. To support... read more
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.
