Postdoctoral Fellowship Japan – Short Term Program 2025-2
November 29, 2024EIC Pathfinder Open 2025
2 December, 2024The overall objective of the EIC Pathfinder for advanced research is to develop the scientific basis to underpin breakthrough technologies. It provides support for the earliest stages of scientific, technological or deep-tech research and development. Pathfinder projects aim to build on new, cutting-edge directions in science and technology to disrupt a field and a market or create new opportunities by realizing innovative technological solutions through 2 programs: EIC Pathfinder Open and EIC Pathfinder Challenges.
The EIC Pathfinder Challenges call aims to support coherent portfolios of projects within predefined thematic areas with the aim to achieve specific objectives for each Challenge. It counts with and overall budget of €120 millions in 2025, and the thematic areas are the following:
To enhance adaptation pathways for the production of climate-resilient crops and develop alternative pathways to produce high value ingredients in plants by increasing nutrient profile of crops based on plant native and/or non-native ingredients.
To create interactive GenAI autonomous agents and/or a combination of them that provide clinicians with a holistic end to end perspective of patient care.
Enabling autonomous robot collectives to collaboratively perform complex construction tasks in dynamic, unstructured environments. Advancing robotic collaboration and electrification to revolutionize on-site building processes and enhance efficiency, safety, and sustainability.
Developing of next generation technologies that turn today's problematic waste streams into essential building blocks of a future circular economy.
Deadline: October 29, 2025.
