Today I'm in Antalya for @turkiyecop31 The world is at tipping point. We are on course to overshoot the 1.5°C target. And every fraction of a degree matters. So, we must double down. And Europe will fully play its part.

Keeping European research open while strengthening its security. 🔬 We brought together Europe's research and innovation community to discuss practical challenges in research security, spotlight good practices and where further support is needed.

I just arrived in Bucharest to offer Europe’s solidarity and support to Romania. Threats, attacks and incursions are rising off the coasts of the Black Sea. But Romania and Bulgaria can count on a strong, united European response.

Today, we celebrate Marie Skłodowska-Curie's birthday and her remarkable achievements: the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, the first scientist to win it in two different categories, and the only laureate in two scientific fields. Her name lives on through the EU's Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions, supporting researchers across Europe and beyond, helping advance scientific discovery. 👏 Here's to Marie and the next generation of scientific pioneers!

We preliminarily found that TikTok’s ‘For You’ feed has a harmful design. It shows users endless and repeated exposure of personalised videos, even when those have a negative effect on mental health. While TikTok has implemented measures to mitigate this risk, we consider them insufficiently effective and call for readjustment. 🔗link.europa.eu/Tpc7kc
