Today,
The UK is also joining four European Research Infrastructure Consortia (ERICs) to further boost collaborative ties between researchers, across the Channel.
The four European Research Infrastructure Consortia the UK is joining are:
- European Holocaust Research Infrastructure
- European Research Infrastructure for Heritage Science
- Low Frequency Array
- International Centre for Advanced Studies on River-Sea Systems
These partnerships will enable UK researchers to collaborate on projects ranging from historical research, to astronomy, to advanced river systems studies.
Background
The European Research Infrastructure Consortium (ERIC) is a specific legal form that facilitates the establishment and operation of Research Infrastructures with European interest.
The ERIC allows the establishment and operation of new or existing Research Infrastructures on a non-economic basis.
The Commission provides practical guidelines to help potential applicants.
