Programmes MSCA

The European Commission is giving current and past Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions fellows the opportunity to attend the next Lindau meeting on chemistry in summer 2025. The meeting of Nobel Laureates on chemistry will be held from 29 June to 4 July 2025 in Lindau, Germany. About 600 young scientists from all over the world will get the chance to spend an inspiring week with Nobel Laureates to exchange experiences and establish valuable contacts.

The European Commission is not offering travel or fee support for the event, merely the opportunity to attend thanks to a partnership with the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings organisers.

Applicants must ensure that they have the funding necessary to meet their own share of the costs of the event. This will amount to €1.250, plus travel costs, which can be covered with the budget of the fellow’s MSCA project or host organisation.

The call for applications is open to both current (you should have commenced your fellowship by 1 September 2024) and past MSCA fellows, including master, doctoral students and young postdoctoral scientists, working in the areas of chemistry or related fields. In addition to these criteria, the review panel of the Council for the Lindau Nobel Laureate meetings will select participants among the candidates using its own selection criteria.

The deadline to apply is 30 September 2024, 13h (CEST, Brussels time).

Miricle - Mine Risk Clearance for Europe

The Miricle project, ‘Mine Risk Clearance for Europe’, obtained funding under the European Defence Industrial Development programme call ‘Underwater control contributing to resilience at sea’. The main objective of the project was to achieve a European and sovereign capacity in future mine warfare and create a path for the next generation ‘made in Europe’ countermeasure solutions. In order to realise this objective, Miricle addressed various stages: studies, design, prototyping and testing. These stages inter alia included the successful testing of an XL Unmanned Underwater Vehicle, a protototyped mine disposal system and multiple innovative systems to detect buried mines. Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), was one of the five Belgian partners in the consortium. Within the project, VLIZ was able to forward its research on the acoustic imaging of the seabed to spatially map and visualize buried structures and objects - in this case buried mines - in the highest possible detail. VLIZ also led the work on ‘Port and Offshore Testing’, building on the expertise of the institute in the field of marine operations and technology.
