In the π¨π Mission to πͺπΊ, 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 πͺπΊ must strengthen its efforts across the entire research pipeline, across many fields, to be globally competitive. @timeshighered.bsky.social πhttps://bit.ly/41aRW5w

Trumpβs return demands unity, investment and clarity of purpose - Research Professional News
Universities and research are vital elements of Europeβs response to US isolationism, says Jan Palmowski
Free to read: Trump's return will intensify the security threats, political divides and budget dilemmas facing Europe, but it can't afford to neglect research and universities, @palmowski.bsky.social writes in @resprofnews.bsky.social

'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

Universities must play a central role in von der Leyenβs second term
Research, innovation and education are recognised in the commission presidentβs manifesto, but letβs assert their wider relevance, says Jan Palmowski
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...
