Enjoying the useful and informative discussions at the
@ri-hubs-eulac.bsky.social General Meeting today, outlining collaborations between Instruct and RIs and projects to advance interactions in LAC!

Great new format for the meeting where we discuss the issues of relevance to the ERICs more than typical presentations.
So far we cover: ERIC regulation, funding for access, international reach, impact of infrastructures and more.
@instruct-eric.bsky.social has contributed to all of these issues
In the first practical session of the Annual Meeting, Giuseppe Cimo (Joint Institute for VLBI ERIC) guided the audience in identifying the main challenges of the ERIC Regulation in distributed RIs 💫 Lots of comments and important insights were gained! 👏
November 12, 2025 at 1:44 PM
And we get started with Giuseppe Cimo from JIVE presenting the work the ERIC Forum has been doing to look in how to improve or implement the ERIC regulation
In the case of internationalisation the issues were diagnosed within the work published last year

Just arrived in Brussels! Looking forward to discuss the work done with respect to improve ERICs international engagement

I was sad to miss this great event, I am in Brussels in a meeting of the @ericforum.bsky.social with the ERIC Committee organised by @ec.europa.eu
Great to see internationalisation as a priority for research infrastructures with emphasis on Science diplomacy

Continue support from Instruct-ERIC to the development of a EOSC to the service of researchers. In the last few months Instruct had the responsibility of representing the ERIC Forum as mandated organisation of the EOSC association
@eosc-beyond.bsky.social @eosccz.bsky.social @ericforum.bsky.social
Instruct-ERIC Director Prof. Harald Schwalbe is on the panel today for the EOSC Association General Assembly, outlining how Instruct can collaborate with partners across Europe in driving data management capabilities in research and structural biology.

The @horizoneu.bsky.social project @fheritale.bsky.social is trying to find what the researchers needs are, lets help!

@ec.europa.eu funding is key but extended community help is needed

Is your research activity centered on investigating the effects of #microplastics and #nanoplastics ( #MNPs), #plasticadditives, #bioplastics on food, health, or the environment?

Your contribution matters!
