CONNECT-NM funds its first projects

CONNECT-NM has reached an important milestone for European nuclear materials research. Following a highly competitive cascade funding call, 17 projects have been approved, reflecting both strong interest and the high scientific quality of the proposals received.

At a glance:

  • 51 proposals submitted

  • 30 countries involved

  • 17 projects selected, with 69 organisations participating

The selected projects cover key areas including advanced materials qualification, digital tools, structural integrity, fuels, corrosion, irradiation effects and long-term operation. Together, they strengthen research-to-application pathways and contribute to innovation and harmonisation in nuclear materials research across Europe.

We congratulate all selected projects and look forward to following their progress.
