The European High Performance Computing Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU) has announced two new opportunities in the field of HPC:

Call for proposals for a European Benchmarking Framework

The objective of this call is to develop a new set of appropriate metrics and benchmarks for the next generation of EuroHPC infrastructure. The call addresses two topics

  • A European HPC-centric Benchmarking Framework

  • A European Benchmarking Framework for hybrid quantum-classical computing

Deadline to submit proposals is 24 March 2026. More information is available on the EuroHPC website.

Frontier AI Grand Challenge: Building sovereign, large-scale AI

The Frontier AI Grand Challenge is a major EU-wide initiative launched by the European Commission and the EuroHPC Joint Undertaking. Its primary mission is to bridge the strategic gap in high-end AI development by fostering the creation of sovereign, large-scale European AI models

The expected outcome of the Frontier AI Grand Challenge is the selection of one proposal to train a frontier AI model that will outperform state-of-the-art models in a number of relevant tasks. 

 Deadline to submit proposals is 13 April 2026. More information is available on the challenge's website.

Methylomic – Hope & Improved outcomes for Crohn’s disease patients across Europe

The METHYLOMIC project, ‘targeting hope for personalised medicine in immune-mediated inflammatory diseases’ obtained funding from Horizon Europe’s Health Cluster. The project aims to personalise treatment allocation and enhance the effectiveness of medications for chronic immune-mediated diseases such as Crohn’s disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and psoriasis. BIRD, the Belgian inflammatory bowel disease research and development group, is a partner in the project and is involved in the OmiCrohn trial, a prospective randomised clinical trial for individualised therapy in Crohn’s disease patients. With BIRD’s active role in this trial, the project is set to deliver predictive, biomarker-based therapies that bring renewed hope for Crohn’s disease patients across Europe.
