The conference will focus on the key interfaces between the environment, humans, and technology within and beyond the Earth’s planetary boundaries and discuss what frontier research – with a focus on projects funded by the ERC – can offer to address these challenges. The boundaries themselves may be spatial, ecological, biological, physical, geopolitical or mental.
