H2020 Information Point

Date: 2020.03.01

H2020 and Horizon Europe are the flagship programmes of the European Union’s research, development and innovation policy, aimed at boosting the continent’s competitiveness. The programmes help EU Member States work together on forward-looking projects that offer global solutions to environmental, social and economic challenges, among others. Between 2021 and 2027, the European Union’s Horizon Europe programme will make nearly EUR 100 billion in funding available for calls for applications.

Direct EU consortium calls

Horizon 2020/Horizon Europe Information Point

Within the framework of the project titled Innovációs Ökoszisztéma fejlesztése a Moholy-Nagy Művészeti Egyetemen (Development of the Innovation Ecosystem at Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design), with project ID 2019-1.2.1-EGYETEMI-ÖKO-2019-00001), the Horizon 2020/Horizon Europe Information Point operates at our university from 1 February 2020.

Our goal is to have MOME successfully participate in the European Commission’s H2020 and Horizon Europe Framework Programme for Research, Development and Innovation calls for proposals announced for Member States.

To this end, the HORIZON Information Point provides the following services:
- identification of European-level competences of MOME researchers / research teams, mapping of research areas;
- recommending open calls, providing information;
- seeking out relevant international consortium membership opportunities;
- support in finding partners: preparation of B2B events, MOME presence on partner-seeking platforms;/
- holding consultations and information forums to mobilise potential applicants;
- collecting ‘best practices’: sharing studies and research results from H2020-winning projects with stakeholders;
- preparing and coordinating the submission of international calls for applications;
- strengthening and broadening MOME’s domestic and international network of contacts, building working relationships;

staff of the Horizon 2020/Horizon Europe Information Point:

Starspot research using MOME's data visualisation published in Nature

A stunning video illustrating the evolution of starspots over time on the surface of red giant XX Trianguli (XX Tri) has been produced by data scientists Ádám Radványi and Viktor Varga of the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design (MOME). Based on 16 years of observations, researchers from the Leibniz Institute for Astrophysics Potsdam (AIP) and the Astronomy Institute of the HUN-REN Research Centre for Astronomy and Earth Sciences reconstructed the changes in the cooler regions of the star’s surface, known as starspots. The MOME team translated these findings into an engaging data visualisation animation, making this complex phenomenon accessible to a broader audience.

Zenctuary VR+ application wins research and development funding

What therapeutic effect could a beautiful virtual walk through nature or immersive gardening have? This is one of the questions explored by the Zenctuary VR+ project, led by Ágnes Karolina Bakk PhD within the FutureCare Lab at MOME, which has secured nearly 1 million euros in funding through the HU-rizont grant programme of the National Research, Development, and Innovation Office. Developed for healthcare facilities, this virtual natural environment aims to serve both rehabilitative and diagnostic purposes, improving patient care and the quality of life for the elderly, promoting recovery, and reducing the workload of healthcare professionals.
