Quantum technology will be integrated into supercomputers that are located in several European countries. The agreements between the hosting entities and EuroHPC JU were signed at the end of June in Luxembourg.
LIP’s general assembly was held via zoom last Friday, with the presence of all associate institutions.
FCT publishes the notice of the call for the evaluation of R&D Units 2023-2024. More info is available on the FCT website (both in Portuguese and in English).
After the LIP seminar on the subject, we decided to create an informal sustainability group and get started - with info collection and some specific actions. Check here how to participate!
We share a picture of the traditional São João dinner at LIP-Minho. Early São João, of course — it seems they on the day itself it's nearly impossible... Happy São João to the youngest of the LIP nodes!
For the first time in several years, the ATLAS group met in person at LIP in Coimbra. There were 26 participants on site, including close collaborators and summer students, plus five colleagues participating remotely.
Individual Fellowships provide opportunities to researchers of any nationality to acquire and transfer new knowledge and to work on research and innovation in Europe (EU Member States and Horizon 2020 Associated Countries) and beyond.
The combination of advanced simulation models and more accurate nuclear data will allow optimising the use of and need for experimental and demonstration facilities in energy and non-energy applications such as the design improvement, optimisation of waste management and geological disposal, and support to a multidisciplinary approach in radiation protection.
To bridge the gap between basic research and real market needs,
ATTRACT is calling for researchers, entrepreneurs and companies to
bring forward breakthrough projects on pioneering imaging and sensor
technologies. The ATTRACT Project will fund 170 breakthrough
technology concepts in the domain of detection and imaging
technologies across Europe. The projects will be awarded €17 million
in funding – €100,000 each in seed funding to carry out their idea.
The ERA Chairs actions will support universities or research organisations with the objective of attracting and maintaining high quality human resources under the direction of an outstanding researcher and research manager (the "ERA Chair holder") and in parallel implement structural changes to achieve excellence on a sustainable basis.
COST is an EU-funded programme that enables researchers to set up their interdisciplinary research networks in Europe and beyond. It provides funds for organising conferences, meetings, training schools, short scientific exchanges or other networking activities in a wide range of scientific topics.
ITN supports competitively selected joint research training and/or doctoral programmes, implemented by partnerships of universities, research institutions, research infrastructures, businesses, SMEs, and other socio-economic actors from different countries across Europe and beyond.
