CREATIC participated in the 3rd. Teaming Club Conference in Serbia
From October 7 to October 10, 2024, representatives of CREATIC participated in the 3rd International Teaming Conference, which took place at the BioSense Institute in Novi Sad, Serbia. This conference, designated by the representatives of the European Commission as the "Champions League" among Centres of Excellence, brought together leading European Teaming Centres to share experiences and deepen collaboration.
A Teaming Centre is a research or innovation centre established or strengthened under the European Union's "Teaming" programme, which is part of the Horizon Europe initiative. This programme aims to support the development of excellent research capacities in countries or regions with lower research and innovation performance. Teaming centres are set up in collaboration with leading international research institutions to strengthen the scientific and technological potential of a region.
The main objectives of the conference were to share experiences between centres of excellence, to establish cooperation and networking between institutions, to prepare follow-up projects and research activities and to discuss common themes such as sustainability and translation of scientific research results.
Regina Demlová, the director of the Centre of Excellence CREATIC, had the honour to chair the panel "Health - Presentations of COEs' Scientific Focus and Research Infrastructure". During the panel, individual CoEs presented their scientific focus and shared information about their research infrastructure. Opportunities for future collaboration and the creation of stronger links between the centres were also discussed.
Participation in this prestigious conference was an important opportunity for CREATIC. We established new contacts with leading European research centres, shared and gained valuable experience in the management and implementation of excellent research projects, and opened up new possibilities for future collaborations and joint projects. The Czech Republic was also represented by another team from Masaryk University - Centre of Excellence RECETOX.
