欧盟未来新兴技术计划概况及进展

摘要

EU has been focusing on the research and funding of future and emerging technologies (FET) since 2009 so as to enhance the research and innovation on information and communication technologies (ICT) frontier areas. After a two-year contest, the European Commission has selected two research proposals called Graphene and the Human Brain Project in 2013 as its ifrst projects of FET Flagships. Each project will receive€1 billion (US$1.3 billion) over ten years. It shows that the EU attaches great importance to the development of future&emerging technologies and the cooperation on research in various ifelds. This article analyzes and studies the future and emerging technologies program of EU, hoping to provide some useful information and ideas to the Chinese researchers and related departments.%为加强欧盟信息技术前沿领域的研发创新，鼓励大规模产学研合作，提升整体科研竞争力，欧盟于 2009 年起，着手对未来新兴技术（FET）的大型研发和资助进行探索。经过长期筹备和多次选拔，2013 年初，“石墨烯”和“人脑计划”项目被选为首批 FET 旗舰项目，分别获得总额 10 亿欧元的十年期资助。此举体现了欧盟以长远发展的眼光，对未来新兴技术的发展和多领域研发合作的高度重视。对欧盟未来新兴技术计划进行深入分析和研究，有助于我国相关机构和科技人员借鉴欧盟未来技术的研发理念和经验，加强有关研究和国际合作，探索适合我国国情的新一代信息技术前沿应用领域，提高我国的科研竞争力，为人类健康和社会可持续发展服务。
