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 Stargate project obtained funding under the special Green Deal call of Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic of “green ports and airports”. It received the maximum score of the evaluators and was selected out of more than 40 projects. Stargate’s purpose is to prove that sustainable aviation is possible and happening. It focuses on the further decarbonization of the aviation industry, the improvement of local environmental quality and the stimulation of the modal split. Together with a consortium of 21 European partners with a diverse and rich expertise (airports, community partners, knowledge institutions, consultants, local governments, …), Brussels Airports takes the lead as lighthouse airport to develop and implement innovative solutions. Results that prove successful can be deployed at the fellow airports (Toulouse, Budapest, Athens). Over the course of the coming five years, the consortium will exchange knowledge to investigate and realize more than 30 concrete projects.
