Programmes ERCThe selected projects of the 2025 European Research Council (ERC) Synergy Grant call (call deadline 6 November 2024) were published. Synergy grant projects consist of minimum two to maximum four researchers or Principal Investigators (PIs) and their teams that jointly address ambitious research problems that could not be addressed by the individual Principal Investigators and their teams working alone.
Proposals are evaluated in not predefined evaluation panels, composed of top scientists and scholars coming from all over the world and in addition by remote referees with necessary specialised expertise, in a three-step evaluation including interviews.
In total 712 proposals were submitted for this call of which 66 projects with 239 PIs were selected for funding. In the ERCEA news article the list of selected projects and several other examples of projects are highlighted.
Among the 239 selected researchers are two researchers based at a Flemish host institution. The projects of the two PIs are presented in the news articles of Universiteit Gent and KU Leuven.
Patrick Degryse (KU Leuven) is together with 3 other PIs involved in the project CoCo - Connected Communities in early medieval Europe.
Bart Merci (Universiteit Gent) is together with 3 other PIs involved in the project FireSpace - Fire safety in space exploration.

Bio Base Europe Pilot Plant coordinated the Glaukos project, which answered the call topic published in 2019 of Horizon 2020 Framework Programme ‘Develop bio-based fibres and/or functional molecules to improve the performance of textile products’ under the Framework of the Bio-based Industries Joint Undertaking (BBI JU). The consortium partners took up this challenge by valorising industrial side streams and setting up a circular approach to the textile industry.
