The virtual FORTHEM Digital Transformation Lab progress meeting will take place on 4th May at Teams environment. After the Lab kick-off meeting, comes the first progress meeting to have the opportunity to show and share the progress of the outputs and the current status of the Lab. During the meeting, we will have many interventions by professors of each module to explain advances and progresses in their research, activities and initiatives. We also will explain the status and evolution of the Lab to date and outline the next phases and objectives for the future, among other questions. If you are interested in learning more about it, you are welcome to join the meeting. You can contact us at forthem[at]uv.es for further details.

From 1 January 2022, the Latvian Council of Science (LCS) will take over the science and research policy support functions currently performed by the Science and Research Policy Support Department of the State Education Development Agency (SEDA/VIAA). These include the management of the PostDoc program, the development and monitoring of international research cooperation programs, the involvement of Latvian scientists in partnerships funded by the European Commission, and the functions of the National Contact Point for the EU Horizon Europe Framework Programme. The changes are related to the reorganization and liquidation of state administration institutions subordinated to the Ministry of Education and Science. The reorganization is expected to strengthen and increase the overall capacity of the LCS by taking over the experience gained by the SEDA in the implementation of programs and projects.

About This local association offers resources to care givers of disabled people. It is a group of four students who share personal and academic interests in this field. On the one hand, their academic interest is based on their common field of study: psychology and mental health. On the other hand, the cornerstone of their interest is made up by the experiences of relatives going through caregiving situations. They would like to develop a new focus on a widely addressed topic: the dependence relationship in physical and mental disorders. Until now, the aid has been provided mainly to the disabled person, leaving out the care giver's needs. The association believes that this topic has a big potential due to its interwoven characteristics (gender, socioeconomic level, family scope and well-being) and a great international projection, as this problem is shared in multiple cultures.
