The overall objective of Research Infrasctructure Programme is to empower the European Union through world-class and accessible Research and Technology Infrastructures. These research infrastructures are important and crucial for enabling research and innovation and for stimulating multidisciplinary and data-intensive science.
The RI work programme under Horizon Europe will help to address the global environmental, social and economic challenges, in line with the renewed ERA, which requires an explicit contribution of research and technology infrastructures into Europe’s wider policy objectives, thus maximizing the contribution of science and technology to the needs of the society and increasing Europe’s competitiveness. In this regard, the European RIs will also contribute to the objectives of Horizon Europe clusters, missions and partnerships in Pillar II as well as to support its innovation part.

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.
