Universities and research are vital elements of Europe’s response to US isolationism, says Jan Palmowski

In the 🇨🇭 Mission to 🇪🇺, Ambassador Rita Adam pointed to Switzerland's commitment to equitable science through the SOR4D sponsored by the @snsf-ch.bsky.social. A good reminder also that the Swiss National Science Foundation is a real beacon among science funders globally! @swissfa.bsky.social
There is a glitch in the Matrix: the Competitiveness Compass seeks to implement the Draghi Report, but ignores its core argument: that 🇪🇺 must strengthen its efforts across the entire research pipeline, across many fields, to be globally competitive. @timeshighered.bsky.social 👉https://bit.ly/41aRW5w
shout it from the rooftops! Look forward to engaging on bluesky! #erc
Hello, Bluesky! ☀️
We fund frontier research in Europe—bold ideas, unexpected discoveries and science that shapes the future. So it’s only fitting we’ve landed here. Sorry for being late.
Follow us for updates on ERC funding, research policy, and our grantees' discoveries.

Great to share the Red Carpet at the European Parliament w/ Annelien Bredenoord and Meri Georgievska-van de Laar @erasmusuniversity.bsky.social! Thank you to Annelien for your fantastic leadership on European R&I as part of the Heitor Group - also on display today @sciencebusiness.net conference!
'Europe must shift gears'. Completely agree with @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu at @weforum.org: Research and Innovation have a crucial part to play in this! That must upscaling the fantastic instruments we have honed over many years, like the ERC, EIC, MSCA and Erasmus+.

At this time, it's doubly important that universities build bridges where others build walls! But at this time, Europe also needs to turbo-charge its R&I spending to ensure Europe remains globally competitive!

Many many congratulations, Frank - but the immense scholarship and extraordinary insight in this book are entirely your own: and they are truly impressive. Congratulations to @humanitiesuu.bsky.social for spotting the importance of this work early on and ensuring you are part of its faculty!
Given the dramatic increase of populism and fake news, how can universities enhance their role in strengthening the Europe we want? I look forward to discussing this question later today with Commission Executive Vice-President @roxanaminzatu.bsky.social @uofgvc.bsky.social
The fight for funding in the next EU's multiannual financial framework (7-year budget) will be intense. But the agenda of the next European Commission gives rich openings to universities to make the case for stronger funding for #research and #innovation: www.timeshighereducation.com/blog/univers...
Universities must play a central role in von der Leyen’s second term
Research, innovation and education are recognised in the commission president’s manifesto, but let’s assert their wider relevance, says Jan Palmowski
