Programmes ERCThe results of the 2023 European Research Council (ERC) Synergy Grant call (call deadline 8 November 2022) were published. Synergy grant projects consist of minimum two tot maximum four Principal Investigators (PIs) and their teams that collaborate and pool knowledge, skills and resources to address ambitious research problems. In total 37 projects with 135 PIs received a Synergy grant including one researcher based at a Flemish host institution:
Kevin Verstrepen (Vlaams Instituut voor Biotechnologie (VIB)) is involved in the project “ EPIC - Unravelling the eukaryotic posttranscriptional regulatory”
More information on that project can be found in the interview with Kevin Verstrepen and the two collaborating PIs Julien Gagneur (Technische Universität München) and Vicente Pelechano (Karolinska Institutet) included in the news articles of the VIB and KU Leuven. In the ERCEA news articles the list of selected projects and several other examples of projects are highlighted.

The RUSTICA project obtained funding under Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic ‘Closing nutrient cycles’. RUSTICA focuses on demonstration and implementation of circular bio-based nutrient valorisation chains, focusing on waste from the fruit and vegetable agro-food system. The project kicked off in 2021 and will run until 2024. It will use a strong multi-actor approach to co-create both socio-economic and technological knowledge in four case study regions in Europe and one in Colombia. The Flanders-based company DRANCO is one of the project partners and acts as technical project manager for the entire project. DRANCO participates in the project to develop its own technologies, to network and to help make the transition to a more circular based economy.
