Programmes Health Culture and society Horizon EuropeCoronavirus Global R&I Collaboration Portal launched by European Commission
On the first day of the 2021 edition of the European Research and Innovation Days, the European Commission launched a new online matchmaking and networking platform to facilitate cross-border collaboration between researchers and research projects with a focus on the socio-economic aspects of the coronavirus pandemic. On the platform you can explore different types of collaboration opportunities, from co-authorship and peer reviews to requests for joint funding applications. You can also browse member profiles and get in touch with them and showcase your ongoing research related to the topic. The Coronavirus Global R&I Collaboration Portal is now open for registrations. You can create your member profile here.

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.
