We are pleased to announce that AnaEE-ERIC has been selected as a partner in four newly funded Horizon Europe projects, reflecting the growing recognition of ecosystem research infrastructures in addressing some of Europe’s most pressing scientific and societal challenges.
- SIRENE (Services for envIRonmental Exposure and health assessmeNt in Europe) unites 11 ESFRI landmarks to advance the exposome concept — a holistic framework linking environmental, occupational, and lifestyle factors to human health outcomes over the life course. AnaEE-ERIC contributes its expertise in ecosystem data and open infrastructure to support this ambitious cross-disciplinary initiative. It is coordinated by Masarykova univerzita.
- TALENTUM brings together AnaEE-ERIC and METROFOOD-RI, alongside CLARIN-ERIC and citizen science experts, to develop a comprehensive training and up-skilling programme for research infrastructure professionals. The project will deliver accredited, transferable learning pathways spanning the Food, Health, and Ecosystems domains, with sustainability built into its long-term funding model. Coordinator: SCIENSANO
- ACCESS2ACCESS, coordinated by Euro-BioImaging ERIC, aims to establish a future European access framework for research infrastructures. The project will co-design governance and funding models, and develop an AI-assisted discovery tool to simplify how researchers navigate and access Europe’s diverse infrastructure landscape.
- SustainArctic, coordinated by Politecnico di Torino, addresses the environmental footprint of research operations in the Arctic and Sub-Arctic. The project will develop and demonstrate scalable technological and digital solutions — including Digital Twins and AI tools — to enable climate-neutral scientific operations in some of the world’s most sensitive ecosystems.
AnaEE-ERIC is committed to playing an active and constructive role in each of these projects, and looks forward to working with its partners to deliver impact at the European and global level.
