Programmes ERCThe results of the 2024 European Research Council (ERC) Proof of Concept (PoC) Grant call (2nd deadline date 17 September 2024) were published. Principal Investigators (PIs) with a main ERC Grant that is ongoing or ended after 1 January 2023 are eligible to participate in an ERC 2024 PoC Grant. The ERC PoC Grants aim at facilitating exploration of the commercial and social innovation potential of ERC funded research and are therefore available only to PIs whose proposals draw substantially on their ERC funded research.
For this call in total 134 ERC PoC Grants were awarded to PIs working in 20 different countries across Europe. In the ERCEA news articles more background on the evaluation results and several project examples are highlighted. Among the 134 selected researchers are at least nine based at Flemish host institutions. The projects of several PIs are presented in the news articles of Universiteit Gent and VIB.

The activities of SAPHIRe are complementary to the smart specialisation partnership on personalised medicine – S3P4PM, which is also coordinated by the Department of Economy, Science and Innovation.
