Projet ACANCOS (Horizon Europe, appel à projets 2022)
Action : Staff Exchanges
Panel : Mathematics
Statut du projet : SIGNED

The ACANCOS project aims to lay the foundation for a solid, and internationally competitive research, which is deeply rooted in a context of numerous prior collaborations (but non structured in an unique network on a worldwide scale) on Automata Networks, Cellular Automata, and modelling of complex systems by these discrete models.  ACANCOS connects the scientific expertise and excellence of research groups from five countries, two of them outside EU, including experts from two distinct communities (AN and CA), from two distinct orientations (theory-oriented and application-oriented), and from three distinct disciplines (computer science, mathematics, and biomedicine).  The scientific objectives of the project are: a) Increasing the knowledge on the relations among the architecture/properties of the underlying graph of AN and the dynamical properties of DTDS defined by AN; b) Understanding the sensitivity/robustness of AN to (a)synchronism; c) Understanding AN through the concept of intrinsic simulation, i.e. the capacity of instances of the computational model to simulate the dynamical behaviour of other instances of the same model; d) Targeting and understanding wide classes of CA both exhibiting the complex behaviours of general CA and with decidable dynamical properties; e) Designing efficient decision algorithms for the dynamical properties describing the dynamical behaviour of DTDS defined by the above mentioned classes of CA; f) Understanding the complexity of the problems regarding the dynamics of DTDS defined by CA with both finite and infinite lattice. g) AN for new conceptualisation and modelling of GRN: theoretical validations and applicative validations on real GRN; h) New CA-based methods for data encryption; Sharing knowledge among different cultural and scientific environments will be crucial to achieve the scientific objectives of the project. The partnership will be strengthened through summer schools and workshops.

Projet BIOSMALL (Horizon Europe, appel à projets 2022)
Action : Staff Exchanges
Panel : Life Sciences
Statut du projet : SIGNED

Although small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a particularly aggressive disease, targeted therapies have remained largely unsuccessful and there were no major therapeutic advances in the last three decades. In the clinics, SCLC is still treated as a molecularly homogeneous malignancy. However, recent analyses led to the classification of neuroendocrine and molecular subtypes, defined by differential expression of four key transcription regulators: ASCL1, NEUROD1, POU2F3 and YAP1. Our study proposal aims to identify unique subtype-specific diagnostic and therapeutic biomarkers for SCLC patients with state-of-the-art multiomic approaches, and moreover to deepen our understanding of the biological and clinical significance of SCLC molecular subtypes. We intend to investigate the diagnostic and therapeutic significance of each subtype in a large panel of human SCLC cell lines in correlation with their proteomic and metabolomic profiles, in vivo metastatic capacity and sensitivity to potential targeted agents. Additionally, the specific features of the molecular subtypes will be also assessed by performing genetic mutation analyses and using in-depth machine-learning algorithms. All potential circulating biomarkers delineated by proteomics and metabolomics will be first validated by a series of in vivo experiments in different murine models. In addition, in order to improve patient selection and follow-up in a non-invasive manner, the specific PET-CT radiomic features of enrolled patients will be also analysed within the framework of the current study. Altogether, by identifying a wide range of novel biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets via multiomic approaches, the current study will possibly result in a new subtype-specific biomarker panel which will contribute to the development of individualized diagnostic and/or therapeutic strategies in this hard-to-treat disease.

Projet ALTER-Q (Horizon Europe, appel à projets 2023)
Action : Staff Exchanges
Panel : Physics
Statut du projet : SIGNED

The development and application of solid-state lasers (SSRs) over the last decade, emphasizing their wide-ranging uses in fields such as metal processing, medical applications, and optical transmission systems. It outlines the fundamental components of SSRs and the importance of achieving a balance between gains and losses in the laser resonator for effective generation. The concept of Q-switching is introduced, highlighting its role in enhancing laser performance by modulating the Q-factor of the resonator. Active and passive Q-switching methods are compared, with a focus on the advantages of passive Q-switches for generating powerful sub-nanosecond pulses in compact laser systems. The challenges associated with finding suitable passive Q-switching materials, particularly for long-term use, are discussed, leading to the proposal of a novel approach using a composite structure of polymer matrix with Cr4+:YAG nanopowders. This initiative, undertaken by the ALTER-Q consortium comprising European academic institutions, research organizations, and SMEs, aims to address the current limitations and pave the way for cost-effective alternatives in Q-switched laser technology.

Projet WhyNotDry (Horizon Europe, appel à projets 2022)
Action : Staff Exchanges
Panel : Environment and Geosciences
Statut du projet : SIGNED

WhyNotDry will deepen our knowledge on reversible drying in cells and germplasm toward the development of a dry biobanking as an alternative to the current freezing in Liquid Nitrogen (LN). LN is expensive, requires dedicated facilities and power supply, and has a high CO2 footprint. WhyNotDry will achieve its aims through a multidisciplinary, intersectoral, international network of scientists that will: i) Develop a drying/rehydration platform using naturally desiccation-tolerant midge (Polypedilum vanderplanki) Pv11 cell lines; ii) Identify the best combination of naturally occurring xeroprotectants (xero=dry) from desiccation-tolerant insect cell line and the best performing water subtraction platform. iii) To use the best xeroprotectants mix and the drying/rehydration protocol for mammalian cells/germplasm. vi) Develop a prototype for controlled dehydration of microvolumes of cell. The R&I activities leading to these aims will be carried out by knowhow sharing through Staff Exchanges between: 3 EU academies, 2 EU SMEs, 2 international partners (Japan, Thailand). Outcomes of WhyNotDry will be incorporated into a cheap, environmentally friendly, and easy biobanking for biodiversity conservation, assisted reproduction, stem cell/personalized medicine. Successful development of this technology will set the basis for a radically new, ‘green’ biobanking paradigm, simplifying the maintenance and shipping practices in life sciences, with enormous reduction in costs and carbon footprint. Moreover, knowledge generated in WhyNotDry would be applicable to other fields such as agriculture, environmental science, food processing, and the pharmaceutical industry, where elective or enforced (by climate change) drying is dealt with. Finally, WhyNotDry will empower young scientists with transferable skills, ensuring career prospects in academia/industry, and strengthen the international/sectorial network between disciplines, boosting European excellence.

Projet UBIGIoT (Horizon Europe, appel à projets 2021)
Action : Staff Exchanges
Panel : Information Science and Engineering
Statut du projet : SIGNED

The rapid technological improvement in the semiconductor industry has enabled smaller and smaller devices to pervade our everyday lives. The real challenge in reducing the size to facilitate a ubiquitous integration of smart functions in any “thing” is drastically reducing the power consumption that constrains the volume to the presence of bulky batteries. An electronic device that dramatically reduces its power consumption can be powered by an alternative "green" source of energy such as light or vibration enabling the vision of the “Internet of Things”. In this scenario, the proposed research activity is intended to substantially enhance the energy efficiency of an IoT sensor node by a synergetic approach targeting both multisource harvesters and the System-on-Chip (SoC) design. The latter one aims in a comprehensive approach in which the macroblocks of different nature are designed exploiting at most an automated (digital) design flow. On this basis, a dramatic human-design effort reduction and silicon area for the same operation is expected for any SoC by a factor in the range of 10x-100x. This implies a faster time-to-market and a reduced cost of energy-autonomous Wireless Sensor Nodes. Challenging problems to be addressed are performance (i.e., resolution, speed). The effectiveness of the proposed approach will be verified and validated on demonstrators of industrial interest. The project targets to be innovative, interdisciplinary, and intersectoral across academies, an EU-based semiconductor company, and partners from MS and TC mostly based in the ASEN.
