We are looking for partners with interdisciplinary expertise in large dataset analysis (e.g. RNA-Seq, proteomics, metabolomics) and machine learning • Clinical expertise with access to patient cohorts or large datasets (ageing, sarcopenia, sarcopenic obesity, dementia, frailty) • Expertise in pre-clinical and cellular models of ageing, obesity, frailty and sarcopenia • Detection and design of RNA molecules for biomarker/therapeutic proof of concept studies, respectively, including but not limited to microRNAs, ASOs. In Galway, we have expertise in pre-clinical and cellular models of ageing and research related to microRNAs, as well as potential access to some clinical cohorts. We are particularly interested to works with partners with access to patients or models of obesity or metabolic conditions.

We are looking for professor/researcher who has specifics skills in these space areas and who would like to participate to our new and exciting training project or supervise internship students (master 2). The expertise focuses on preclinical space research, health, radiation, confinement, habitability, animal and plant production for life support, environmental control, biosensor adaptations but also on ethics or entrepreneurship for space exploration.

I am looking for partners interested in the development of interdisciplinary research and courses for university students aimed at integrating teaching and scientific activities in the two fields of knowledge – physics and biomedicine. There is a preliminary agreement with colleagues from the University of the Basque Country to participate in the proposed project.

References to a “European culture” have been as common as they have been contested in political and societal discourses of the past decades. At the level of EU policies, while a common “European cultural heritage” has been promoted as a cornerstone of the European Commission’s work since the 1970s, the 2000s saw a shift towards the promotion of “European values”, but also towards what has been referred to as “cultural Europeanism” (Tekiner 2020).

I am looking for collaborations with researchers from diverse disciplines—political science, sociology, law, social work, and beyond. Accordingly, the project will adopt a comprehensive approach to migration, addressing various related phenomena, such as asylum, authorized arrivals, labour migration, and family reunification. This broad focus allows for analyses that operate at multiple levels: the macro- and meso-levels of national and EU politics and laws, as well as the individual level, exploring how policies, laws and practices are perceived by migrants and host society members.

I am looking for research groups in the ENLIGHT consortium to build an ENLIGHT Thematic Network on Micro and nanoplastics, that could help join forces to advance the field. We already have partners interested at the University of the Basque Country and the University of Bordeaux. In fact, we are already working together in the Euskampus Laboratory for Transborder Cooperation LTC Aqueus (Towards a joint Aquitania-Euskadi research and higher education alliance to tackle potential risks posed by environmental and bio-based microplastics and nanoplastics in the Gulf of Biscay). The idea would be to enlarge the network of this cooperation by including additional partners from ENLIGHT Universities.

We are very interested in collaborating with partners from the ENLIGHT network with a like-minded focus on promoting community engagement in mathematics and are looking forward to discussing how best to proceed with such initaitives.

We can already anticipate the value that would be added to this project, for example, by collaborators:

• Providing feedback on the Hidden Figures work that the student engages in during the internship including the partner’s local perspective.
• Creating a Hidden Figures hunt in their local area, sharing the hunt with the project partners, and providing feedback on the process

I am looking for researchers with backgrounds in psychology, psychiatry, or related fields who share an interest in my research topic and are open to collaboration. Ideally, you would bring a different disciplinary perspective to the table, allowing us to approach the research from multiple angles. The specific direction of our collaboration can be tailored to accommodate your interests and expertise.

Our proposal outlines a collaborative effort to harness the power of virtual 3D models in advancing adult surgery education and practice. Through partnerships within the ENLIGHT project, we aim to create a transformative educational experience that empowers surgeons with the knowledge, skills, and tools needed to deliver exceptional care to patients. We invite like-minded institutions to join us in this endeavor and contribute to the collective pursuit of excellence in surgical care.

At Uppsala University, we have organized teams for international student competition in synthetic biology, iGEM (www.igem.org) since 2009. The activity is run as a course "Project in Laboratory Synthetic biology" 15 credits, with the main part taking part during the Summer semester. We also offer a course "International Summer School in Synthetic biology" 5 credits. We would love to form a network within ENLIGHT to share experiences and discuss possibilities for development.

I'm a professor in health psychology specializing in cardiovascular health. Being a clinical psychologist by training I'm interested in interventions and behaviour change, but also everything that has to do with the mind-body connection. In the framework of the ENLIGHT calls I am looking for other people interested in similar things. Maybe we can create an application either for the thematic network grant or the incubator grant.

There are many reasons for our future high school teachers to be internationally experienced: International studies on education (such as PISA), Migration (of pupils and teachers) as well as major problems of the 21st century which can only be understood and solved on a global level, make it necessary for future teachers to look further than their classroom.
