What is FRONTIERS?
FRONTIERS is the science journalism initiative funded by the European Research Council (ERC) to design a residency programme for science journalists wishing to experience an immersive period in a European research institution.
The FRONTIERS project is set to run from 2023 to 2027. During this time, the FRONTIERS team plans four calls to enable up to 40 science journalists to spend time with research teams, working on their own reporting ideas at institutions of their choice. Fellows and residency projects from previous rounds can be consulted here.
While backing independent science journalism, FRONTIERS hopes to contribute to the public trust in scientific institutions and in the scientific method itself, to ensure European citizens have access to reliable and accurate scientific reporting, to tackle misinformation and disinformation, ultimately contributing to more informed policymaking and a more scientifically literate society.

Only for stakeholders located in Flanders
The ROOT project obtained funding under Horizon 2020 topic ‘EGNSS applications fostering societal resilience and protecting the environment’. The project, which ran from November 2020 to July 2022, aimed to demonstrate the benefit of Galileo OSNMA signal to increase the robustness of critical telecom infrastructures.
The Flanders-based company Septentrio contributed substantially to completing this objective together with the other ROOT partners. The results of the project partially close a gap in the security of telecommunication networks dependent on satellite-derived time, with indirect benefits in curbing illegal attempts to disrupt network services.
