The GIANCE project has worked to organise several events on life cycle assessment over the last few months in addition to a consortium meeting held in Rome.

The 2D-PRINTABLE project has been productive publishing three new papers and participating in two educational activities.

The 2D-PRINTABLE and GIANCE projects were featured at the 9th EU-Korea Workshop on Graphene and 2D Materials, taking place on 26 May 2025, from 09:00 to 17:45 CEST, at the Institute for Supramolecular Science and Engineering, University of Strasbourg, France.

At the crossroads of cutting-edge materials science and advanced biomedical engineering, Jack Maughan is building tools that could reshape how we treat and interact with the brain. A postdoctoral researcher with a background in nanoscience and tissue engineering, Jack is exploring how graphene-based microneedles can enable next-generation neural interfaces devices that could one day treat neurological disorders, restore movement, and even enhance human-machine communication.

The SAFARI project has shared its insights on its Safe and Sustainable by Design (SSbD) approach in several events this spring.

Enabling EU-funded project collaboration for brain health R&I

RIA PULSE: 4 HORIZON EUROPE PROJECTS IN ACTION

PRESS RELEASE - Strong collaboration among clinical, academic and industrial partners brings Europe a step closer to cost-effective point-of-care diagnostics for Alzheimer’s Disease.

Winner of the Graphene Week Impact Leaders Award 2024, Timofey Savilov began his journey at a research institute in Singapore founded by Nobel Laureate Konstantin Novoselov, seeking hands-on experience beyond his computational background. Now a PhD researcher, he explores the curious behavior of magnetic nanodrums and the unexpected phenomena they reveal.

Effective 1 March 2025, Maria Abrahamsson will take on the position of Graphene Flagship Director. Abrahamsson will replace Patrik Johansson who served as Graphene Flagship Director since October 2023 and as Vice-Director for three years before that.

The GRAPHERGIA project has launched an initiative: GRAPHERGIA Hub, that connects stakeholders across European, national, and local landscapes. Whether you’re a researcher, entrepreneur, or industry leader, the GRAPHERGIA consortium runs a dynamic space for collaboration, knowledge exchange, and strategic partnerships for individuals or teams passionate about driving innovation in graphene-enabled energy solutions, novel smart textiles or advancing future battery technologies.

Friday, 31 January the inaugural General Assembly and start of the Innovative Advanced Materials Initiative (IAM-I) took place in Brussels and online with over 250 participants. The 2D community was very well represented.

At the end of November 2024, a two-day expert workshop on Graphene Family Materials (GFM) was held by the OECD in Paris.

The GIANCE project is set to revolutionise material solutions across multiple industries by introducing a new generation of sustainable graphene-based materials (GRM-bM) that combine enhanced performance with a significant reduction in environmental impact. By focusing on circular design, lightweight construction, and multifunctionality, GIANCE aims to reduce energy consumption, cut CO2 emissions per vehicle over its lifetime, and promote material recyclability.
