CHIST-ERA is the "European Coordinated Research on Long-term Challenges in Information and Communication Sciences and Technologies" ERA-Net. This event brings together scientists and CHIST-ERA representatives to identify and formulate promising scientific and technological challenges at the frontier of research with a view to refine the scientific content of the call 2016.

The CHIST-ERA conference will offer a unique opportunity for the scientific community to directly participate in scoping the Call topics content and exchanging their views on the future of the domain with their peers. The call 2016, to be published in October, will address two new topics:

  • Lifelong Learning for Intelligent Systems
  • Visual Analytics for Decision Making under Uncertainty 

Registration will open shortly and more information is available at the conference website.


The objective of the ERA-NET scheme is to step up the cooperation and coordination of research activities carried out at national or regional level in the Member States and Associated States through the networking of research activities conducted at national or regional level and the mutual opening of national and regional research programmes.
