With agriculture increasingly impacted by climate change, farmers need data-based tools to know when to irrigate, fertilise and harvest their crops. The EU-funded STARGATE project answers this need by combining satellite data with advanced weather models, sensor measurements and historical climate records. The result is a high-resolution solution that farmers can use to make climate-smart decisions.

Europe’s research labs and pharmaceutical companies are both working to discover new drugs, but often speak different dialects. EU-OPENSCREEN was set up to change this by creating a continent-wide research infrastructure for chemical biology and early drug discovery. Within the EU-funded EU-OPENSCREEN-DRIVE project, one of the most effective tools turned out to be not a new machine or invention, but an office with a deceptively simple name: the Industry Liaison Office.
