On March 28, 2025 the Institute of Solid State Physics, University of Latvia (ISSP UL) hosted a joint event bringing together the ERA-Chair teams from the FeLow-D & SWEB projects to drive synergy on cutting-edge research. This gathering marked the official kick-off of the FeLow-D project, setting the stage for collaborations that will strengthen capacity-building efforts at ISSP UL and elevate the institute’s international profile.

During the event, participants discussed roadmaps and mid-term plans aimed at integrating both projects’ expertise and resources. The teams also shared their experiences with capacity-building strategies, reflecting on successful activities under the ongoing CAMART2 project, while outlining added value and sustained impact for ISSP UL after CAMART2’s completion. By uniting around common objectives, SWEB and FeLow-D will enhance research output, foster innovation, and drive long-term institutional growth.


“This first joint meeting between SWEB and FeLow-D demonstrates our commitment to pooling resources and know-how,” said Dr. Aleksejs Zolotarjovs, Head of the Optical materials laboratory within which the FeLow-D is implemented, “We look forward to accelerating the development of high-impact research and boosting ISSP UL’s leadership in the global scientific community.”
