URCA is a partner in the Interfuture project, an ITN (Innovative Training Network) for microbial interactions and new biopesticide and biofertisiliser concepts.

This Marie Sklodowska Curie (Horizon 2020) project involves the Champagne Vines and Wine Research Unit (Unité de Recherche Vignes et Vins de Champagne; URVVC, EA 4707) as well as ten other universities, research centres and companies in seven European countries (Italy, France, Austria, United Kingdom, Spain, Germany and Belgium) and aims to offer European industrial doctoral degrees of excellence.

This four-year project anticipates the establishment of a training and conference cycle, with one focusing on disease resistance in plants, organised by URCA.
