    20 December 2018


    On November 19, 2018, FLAG-ERA published the announcement of its third Joint Transnational Call (JTC2019) in support of projects in synergy with the Graphene Flagship and the Human Brain Project.

    On November 19, 2018, FLAG-ERA published the announcement of its third Joint Transnational Call (JTC2019) in support of projects in synergy with the Graphene Flagship and the Human Brain Project. The call aims to add a third wave of transnational partnering projects to support and extend these two FET Flagship initiatives. It is designed to expand the current Flagships with new research contributing to the Flagship objectives in selected areas. New researchers and researchers already in the Flagships are equally eligible. Selected projects are expected to be integrated in the Flagships as Partnering Projects. An information webinar about the call will be organized on January 10, 2019. The pre-proposal submission deadline is February 19, 2019.
