Projet SHARPER (Horizon 2020, appel à projets 2016)
Action : European Researchers' Night
Statut du projet : CLOSED

Researchers love to engage with nature, society, with future and ultimately with all the complex challenges that will allow them to contribute to a better world. Researchers also love to engage with other people to make the quest they’re involved in a collective endeavour. All this make researchers persons passionate for engagement who are developing a growing sense of responsibility related to their work and their role in society. In such a professional life researchers experience strong driving forces such as enthusiasm, emotions, combined with new knowledge and innovative discoveries. All these elements are summarized in the acronym SHARPER - Sharing Researchers’ Passion for Engagement and Responsibility the name of the European Researchers’ Night in the Centre and South of Italy that will take place on the 30th of September 2016 and on the 29th of September 2017 simultaneously in five cities: Perugia, L’Aquila, Ancona and Palermo – the four capital cities of the regions Marche, Umbria, Abruzzo, Sicily and in Cascina the city hosting the European Gravitational Observatory one of the cutting edge European research facilities. This network of cities combined with their Research Institutions and with their social and cultural actors provides a team of excellence and reliability both in the fields of research and science communication at national and international level. The SHARPER project will create effective communication bridges between researchers and the cities and communities they live and act within, through: street labs, exhibitions, performances in city squares or activities that will take place in focal city venues, where citizens use to spend their everyday life. SHARPER 2016-2017 will geographically broaden the impact of the communication actions of European Researchers’ Night in Italy massively engaging kids, young students, schools, associations and citizens at large actively involved by researchers since the planning phase of the activities.

Projet RethinkingMary (Horizon 2020, appel à projets 2020)
Action : Postdoctoral Fellowships - European Fellowships
Panel : Social Sciences and Humanities
Statut du projet : SIGNED

RethinkingMary aims to explore the cultural impact of the literary representations of the Virgin Mary on the construction of women's identity in early modern Italy. Using methodological approaches from philology, history of ideas, history of women and gender studies, Dr Carinci will build and evaluate a corpus of literary works printed and manuscript on the Virgin Mary written by Italian men and women between ca.1450 and 1650, a crucial period for the construction of Italian and European modernity. While offering a first comprehensive study of the impact of the literary representation of the Virgin Mary in Italian culture, RethinkingMary challenges the idea that the Virgin was only a passive and submissive role model for women, considering the ways in which she was used by lay and religious women writers as a powerful model of womanhood and how she influenced women's self-representation. This research will propose a completely new interpretation of the impact of the figure of the Virgin on early modern Italian culture and will produce a bibliographical database. The action will take place at the department of Philosophy, Classics, History of Art and Ideas (IFIKK) at the University of Oslo (UiO), the Norwegian Institute of Rome and the Venice Centre for Digital and Public Humanities (VeDPH), at Ca’ Foscari University, and will involve research trip to various libraries and archives. The project will be supervised by Unn Falkeid, professor of History of Ideas at IFIKK, expert in Italian women writers and Intellectual history and Principal Investigator of the international project 'The Legacy of Birgitta of Sweden', funded by the Research Council of Norway (2018-2021), which explores the impact of Saint Birgitta on Italian women writers, involving an international and interdisciplinary research group. RethinkingMary is strictly connected and in part overlapping with such project and Dr Carinci will find the perfect environment to succeed and to develop future projects.

Projet RHYTHMSYNC (Horizon 2020, appel à projets 2016)
Action : Postdoctoral Fellowships - European Fellowships
Panel : Social Sciences and Humanities
Statut du projet : CLOSED

Rhythm perception is important for a wide range of higher cognitive abilities ranging from time perception to predicting the occurrence of future events, from perceiving language to dancing to the beat of the music. Despite considerable amount of research in rhythm in various scientific disciplines, the way the human mind perceives and produces rhythm is not fully understood. While many interdisciplinary studies look at how performance in one cognitive domain compares to performance in another, it has proven difficult to link the mechanisms for rhythm perception across perceptual and cognitive domains directly. This project therefore looks how rhythm in music and spoken language interact by relying on rhythm synchronization: i.e. the phenomenon that our mind tends to automatically synchronize our motor-activity to the rhythm we perceive auditory (e.g. tapping a finger to the beat of music, the gestures that accompany speech, and singing). Because rhythm in spoken language and music is shaped by experience with culture specific music and our native language, in addition to adults, this project also studies young infants from birth through the crucial early stages of vocal and motor development. The studies in this project rely on a combination of acoustic analyses and electrophysiological methods (sEGM) to determine how rhythm in language and music is synchronized, how synchronization unfolds in time and how differences in rhythm in the two domains affect rhythm synchronization. By looking at similarities and differences in the rhythm of spoken language and music, the project attempts to create a blue-print of the shared and domain-specific cognitive mechanisms necessary for rhythm processing. Because we are surrounded by rhythm in our everyday life, the study of rhythm synchronization can thus help us understand how different rhythms interact and how they influence our daily life and our behaviour.

Projet RiZeSisT (Horizon 2020, appel à projets 2017)
Action : Postdoctoral Fellowships - European Fellowships
Panel : Environment and Geosciences
Statut du projet : CLOSED

Rice is a main staple food providing more than 50 percent of the world’s calories intake. However, grain yield and quality are drastically reduced by the sheath blight disease (ShBD), the second most important disease. ShBD is caused by the soilborne, necrotrophic fungal pathogen, Rhizoctonia solani. No rice germplasm providing complete resistance is available, preventing improvement of cultivated rice varieties. Generally, dominant resistance genes are used to generate resistance to pathogens. However, these narrow-spectrum genes can be easily overcome by pathogens. Therefore, the best approach to acquire broad-spectrum resistance is to employ altered susceptibility genes (S genes). S genes encode susceptibility factors, facilitate pathogen infection and support compatibility. The molecular mechanisms underlying susceptibility to R. solani are largely unknown. Recently, it has been recognized that necrotrophic pathogens have a short biotrophic phase during infection. In “RiZeSisT” -Rice rhiZoctonia reSisTance- I will identify rice S genes that are essential to establish the early (biotrophic) infection of R. solani. I will exploit mutated (incompatible) S gene(s) to generate resistance to ShBD. After this project we will generate non-GMO mutants for improving elite varieties for broad-spectrum resistance to ShBD. KeyGene acts at the forefront of new technologies and traits to support the development of new and improved crops. Executing “RiZeSisT” at KeyGene, will enable me to use cutting-edge technologies, bioinformatics & data science expertise and plant-based trait platforms to discover the S genes. This is an innovative strategy that has not been used for this pathosystem. Furthermore, there is a high chance to translate my obtained knowledge to generate resistance to R. solani in additional relevant crops as maize, wheat, barley or soybean. The results of “RiZeSisT” will contribute to meet food security needs for our growing population.

Projet PARACORT (Horizon 2020, appel à projets 2014)
Action : Postdoctoral Fellowships - European Fellowships
Panel : Life Sciences
Statut du projet : CLOSED

Rodent-borne microparasitic infectious diseases (e.g. LCMv), including those transmitted by the rodents’ ectoparasites (e.g. TBE), are of increasing concern for public health. Rodents themselves are also a threat to food security because they damage agricultural crops and food stores. Effective control of these emerging and re-emerging diseases (and the rodent hosts themselves) requires a full understanding of the parasite-host dynamic. This dynamic is likely to be altered where hosts are coinfected with prevalent endemic macroparasite species (e.g. helminths), which change host demography and may interact directly with microparasites via the host’s immune system. Using empirical data from a typical European temperate forest in the Autonomous Province of Trent (PAT), Northern Italy, this project will: i) first assesses which macro- and microparasites interactions exist among the common parasite community in this region (using advanced statistical methods), ii) develop a mathematical modelling framework to assess the long term dynamics of the rodent and parasite community and to simulate the outcome of a range of different parasite and host control strategies and iii) use this model to develop a co-ordinated ‘OneHealth’ plan for both rodent and parasite control in PAT .

Projet SCILIFE (Horizon 2020, appel à projets 2016)
Action : European Researchers' Night
Statut du projet : CLOSED

SCILIFE – Science in Everyday Life – is a European Researchers’ Night (ERN) proposal. It builds on previous experience of successful editions to bring ERN’s aims to a different level in the Portuguese context. Using the theme of Science in Everyday Life as a point of departure, SCILIFE will address ‘traditional’ science and society issues – e.g. citizens’ engagement with sustainable and inclusive research, scientific careers, society’s involvement in science policy, decision-making and collective deliberation – but it will do so by bringing Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) strategically into the public debate. Activities in a wide range of media during build-up and main event will be structured in order to highlight and raise awareness towards the main aims of contemporary RRI – responsibility, transparency and openness – in the sciences, arts and humanities, as well as their alignment with European culture and values. This approach has never been done before in Portugal in such a large scale. The SCILIFE consortium is coordinated by the University of Lisbon through its National Museum of Natural History and Science (MUHNAC). It combines major universities in Portugal – Porto, Minho, Nova University of Lisbon, the University Institute of Lisbon – and Municipality of Lisbon, together with more than 50 associated partners from the academic sector, industry, NGOs and civil society. It covers the most populated regions of Portugal, with direct and indirect impacts expected to reach thousands of people, particularly the youth.

Projet SENUC (Horizon 2020, appel à projets 2020)
Action : Postdoctoral Fellowships - European Fellowships
Panel : Physics
Statut du projet : CLOSED

SENUC is a project aiming at improving our knowledge of the structure and dynamics of Super Exotic NUClear systems at the limit of stability, focusing on the properties of halo nuclei and few-nucleon emitters, through the development of innovative coupled-channel models including core excitations within both collective and microscopic approaches and their implementation in novel computer codes that will be made publicly available. This action will be developed by integrating the researcher in the renowned Nuclear Physics group of the University of Seville, with a strong interest on the theoretical interpretation of recent and new experiments at Radioactive Ion Beam (RIB) facilities in Europe and worldwide. The research objectives are focused on: 1) the description of core correlation effects in processes involving super exotic nuclear systems, and 2) bridging the gap between few-body collective models and the microscopic many-body structure of nuclei at the dripline boundaries and beyond. A proper knowledge of these topics is crucial to assess how shell evolution shapes the limits of the nuclear chart, with implications for open questions in Physics regarding the strong force and nucleon-nucleon correlations. Accordingly, SENUC will provide an innovative theoretical framework to support the most recent advances in RIB physics, describing processes induced by or involving the most exotic nuclear systems that are available or will be soon produced in next-generation facilities such as FAIR-GSI, FRIB-MSU or RIBF-RIKEN.

Mots clés : nuclear structure, nuclear reactions, exotic nuclei, halo nuclei, few nucleon emitters, 3body nuclei, core excitations, correlations and decay, collective and microscopic excitations, coupled channels

Projet SESAM21 (Horizon 2020, appel à projets 2020)
Action : European Researchers' Night
Statut du projet : CLOSED

SESAM21 NIGHT will through a thematic approach bring research closer to the general public and pursue 3 main objectives: 1. enhance understanding of the impact of researchers’ work on citizens‘ daily life; 2. encourage young people to embark on a research career; and 3. counteract stereotypes about the work of researchers. We will i) use the research challenges created by the climate crisis in relation to nature, environment and food & agriculture as overall theme to create understanding of the impact of research and innovation on citizens’ life. ii) pay particular attention to the role of young people and use the school as an arena that can reach the wider community and citizens. iii) create a prime platform to increase recognition of researchers’ work and create an excellent opportunity to encourage young people to embark on research careers. iii) put particular emphasis on the challenge related to protecting nature in both its wild and cultivated form when it comes to feeding the world in a sustainable way. We use outdoor learning and Nature Based Education as the didactical foundation. The planning & preparation phase is at 6 schools across Denmark. Execution however, is split in a on-school and off-school part. We use the school to execute the NIGHT as an In-House and Open-School event. Friday morning is In-House for all pupils, Friday afternoon is Open house for parents, families, friends & local community. Saturday we leave the school and move to “the town”. Two major attractions - the CPH Experimentarium and the Foodcamp Højer in the southest – will act as venues. Experimentarium is well known for its research communication and is a leading science centre with 30 years of experience and > 400.000 visitors/year. Højer Food camp is a newly established venue for food literacy and learning activities targeted school children. We use these instruments: Science Workshop, Lounge Talks, Remote Lounge Talks, Street Experiments, Info Corners & Research Shows.
