The E3Canarias project aims at enhancing the innovation management capacity of the Canary Islands’ SMEs through the delivery of 7-day service packages, targeted to the most innovative small and medium size companies in the islands, as well as giving support to the Canarian beneficiaries of the HORIZON 2020 dedicated SME instrument, as Key Account Manager (KAM). Given the restricted number of packages available for the Canary Islands’ potential, the SMEs that have already been active in different innovation and internationalization activities will be assessed by using a standard innovation intake checklist and the SMEs with the most significant innovation activities and a high potential for internationalization will be selected. For the delivery of these services: • A minimum number of 2 EEN staff members will be trained for innovation management via the IMP3rove-Academy. • A minimum number of 7 service packages enhancing the innovation management capacities of SMEs will be provided. The final number of SMEs beneficiaries of the service could be increased depending on the resources available. • Considering the figures of participation of SMEs from the Canary Islands in the European Seven Framework Programme of RTD (FP7), a maximum of one beneficiary of the HORIZON 2020 dedicated SME instrument in 2014 is foreseen, so the expected provision of KAM service will be one. If the final number of SMEs is higher they will be supported as well.

Mental-Health problems in youth such as disruptive behavioural disorders, substances abuse, aggressive behaviors, depression, anxiety, etc. is an expanding and global concern. Numerous Mental-Health problems in youth are significantly related with poor capacity of Emotion Regulation (ER). Adaptive ER strategies influence the intensity, duration, and expression of emotions, modifying emotional reactions in a socially tolerable and sufficiently flexible way. Thus, learning adaptive ER strategies has strong potential in promoting physical and psychological well-being in youth. However, the promise of an easy access and implementation of ER programs remains disappointedly unrealised for the following reasons. (1) Learning of ER competencies is almost invisible in European school curricula. (2) There is a lack of studies in youth that compare ER strategies to provide sufficient evidence-based criteria and guidelines. (3) The needs of the digital natives’ generation have not been taken into consideration in ER programs, often lacking the engaging and motivational aspects and a high quality assessment. (4) There is an issue of adaptability of ER interventions to the school context. Thus, the main objective of PEACEFUL MIND is to develop an attractive program, using Information and Communication Technologies, as well as ecological and objective measures, to teach youths adaptive ER strategies. By doing so, we will directly influence social, emotional, and cognitive development of youths that will have an impact during their entire lives. Finally, the multidisciplinary training objective will provide an extensive clinical training in third wave therapies, training in research methodology, gaining experience in teaching, tutoring, and additional research competencies, which will open up the opportunity to become an expert in both the academic and private sectors, and will greatly contribute to my objective of becoming a scientific leader in third wave therapies and e-health.

REELER - Responsible Ethical Learning with Robotics Robots are the next ICT-related technology on the horizon ready to radically alter human societies. It is a major societal concern that up to 40% jobs may be replaced by robots over the next 20 years. Few empirical studies have been made in how roboticists’ visions may differ from users/affected stakeholders’ needs and concerns with these pervasive and radical changes. The REELER project aims at aligning the roboticists’ visions of a future with robots with empirically-based knowledge of human needs and societal concerns. Based on extensive robotics/SSH-RRI collaboration, REELER will offer proactive steps towards ethical and responsible robots by suggesting radical changes in current robot design procedures. Moreover, REELER will formulate guidelines in the REELER Roadmap for distributed responsibility among roboticists, users/affected stakeholders and policy-makers by closing the current gap between these. At the core of these guidelines is the concept of collaborative learning which permeates all aspects of REELER and will guide future SSH-ICT research. The main outcome of REELER is the research-based roadmap presenting a) ethical guidelines for Human Proximity Levels, b) prescriptions for how to include the voice of new types of users and affected stakeholders through Mini-Publics and call forth roboticists’ assumptions via sociodrama and c) an agent-based simulation tool for policy-making. The high level of multidisciplinarity (8 robot designers from the LEIT-ICT batch 23, anthropologists, psychologists, economists and philosophers) of the REELER research, will assure cooperation, comprehension and acceptance of SSH-research by the robotics research community. Integrating the recommendations of the REELER Roadmap for Responsible and Ethical Learning in Robotics in future robot design processes will ensure a European robotics community that take humans needs and societal concerns into account.

A Prison Farm (PF) is a correctional facility located in rural environments where inmates are employed in open-air manual work.Within the current European carceral archipelagos, mostly constituted of mass urban walled prisons and recent suburban super prisons, PFs are limited in number and scope and often disregarded by national and EU policies, and by academic studies. Yet, PFs show potential in addressing the EU's wills to: improve the current state of incarceration while reducing its scope; promote sustainable agriculture and rural development. The IF's objective is to tackle these 2 societal challenges with a pilot project for a network of detention farmhouses that will be tested in the territorial condition of Flanders, a EU region suffering from an increase loss of farms. The project adopts a research-by-design methodology and will follow a groundwork comparative study of the space of selected existing PFs in Belgium, Italy, and Finland, aiming at the acquisition and systematization of a currently missing knowledge on European PFs. The project will be based -while extending its scope to the rural condition- on the cutting-edge institutional model elaborated by the NGO De Huizen, whose proposal for a network of urban small-scale contextually integrated detention houses is challenging the current penal system in Belgium. The supporting network of the host and partner institutions (KU Leuven-Dept.of Architecture, VUB-Dept.of Criminology, De Huizen), and of key members from Belgian public authorities in the sectors of prison and rural development, constitutes a unique interdisciplinary milieu of knowledge and expertise that will guarantee the success of the IF.This will impact the fellow's career, evolving her expertise in the field of prison architecture while expanding her critical insight on broader theoretical themes around the empowerment of architecture in directing human behaviour and the relationship between architecture-institutions-large scale territory.

The aim of this project is to develop a business plan to guide clinical development and commercialisation of SIN020; a glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) negative allosteric modulator (NAM) to promote recovery of the injured stroke brain. Every year, 1 million people in Europe have a stroke and the healthcare and non-healthcare cost is estimated at EUR 45 billion. The only treatment option available for restoring neurological function in stroke patients is rehabilitation, which has limited effect. Since there is a 34% anticipated rise in the total number of stroke events between 2015 and 2035, there is a pressing need for a pharmacological intervention to help restore function after stroke. Sinntaxis is developing SIN020, a repurposed investigational drug that has previously been in clinical development for another indication and can therefore enter straight in to a Phase II clinical trial. In animal models, mGluR5 NAM has been shown to help reverse lost functions in animal models of stroke and we aim to translate this exciting preclinical data to clinically validated results. The current proposed Phase 1 project will facilitate in the development process and help define clinical and business strategies. SME Instrument funding will allow SIN020 to take a substantial step along the path of commercialisation.

During the summer of 2018, the EU experienced the worst outbreak of West Nile Virus (WNV) in history, with more than 1317 infected and 142 deaths reported. WNV can cause a fatal neurological disease in humans, for which there is no known therapy or vaccine. WNV is just one of the many Vector-Borne Diseases transmitted by mosquitoes (Dengue, Zika, Yellow Fever, Malaria, etc.) threatening Europe due to climate change. VECTRACK addresses this major problem through early detection and prevention of disease outbreaks, the key pillars in preventive control strategy. Obtaining high quality field information is notoriously costly and time-consuming. To effectively control these disease-vectors, specialized public and private bodies implement laborious and costly surveillance programs, where manual field trap inspections represent 95% of total costs. These costs can be significantly reduced through combining cost-efficient sampling strategies, remote sensing and spatial modelling techniques resulting in risk maps for targeted surveillance and risk assessments. VECTRACK will provide the first transnational and automated vector surveillance system, a long sought objective of the World Health Organization (WHO), the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC). This will be achieved through the development of an Earth Observation (EO) Satellite Sentinel service, including ground nodes with new optoelectronic sensors allowing fully remote and automated counting and classification of the target mosquitoes (sex, species, age and infection potential). VECTRACK will be commercialized as a service to the market segments already serviced by the industry partners, and new international clients. This will be achieved through the development of an innovative business plan, an extensive market demonstration and the implementation of a knowledge management and protection strategy for the exploitation of the technology in Europe and other international markets.

Public Procurement of Innovation (PPI) is a crucial challenge for public bodies to be implemented during next years. The “usual” way of purchasing goods is based solely on the price of the product. Life cycle costing, supply chain analysis or group purchase are rarely used, which means missing some opportunities to get innovative products that would give purchasers competitive advantage. Therefore, there is an urgent need to start developing networks of procurers. Such networks will enable them to identify common needs, conduct market analysis, understand supply chain, use these tools to comprise a higher procurement volume, and achieve bigger impact on suppliers. It will allow them voice out their unmet needs, create a new demand to access sustainable products of higher quality, and develop new applications with lower life cycle costs. This can be obtained through PPI. Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) has equally become an essential tool used in nearly all areas of society. Health sector, which is the core of this proposal, is no exception to this regard. The target of the project is to understand health care public procurers unmet needs, particularly in eHealth. That is why a network of procurers will be developed within the scope of the project. The network will allow the consortium to identify common needs, explore the best available solutions and stimulate the market with the aim of creating a PPI/PCP procurement strategy for the eHealth sector. In order for the EPP-eHealth consortium to be able to achieve the mentioned objectives, a set of 4 workshops aimed at project members and potential stakeholders will be developed. Three of these workshops will train attendees in public procurement while a 4th workshop will be used as a market test. Finally and aiming to widespread project results, a comprehensive set of dissemination activities will be carried out.

The World Health Organisation named antibiotic resistance as one of the greatest threats to global health, predicting the advent of infections not responding to antibiotics. The humanity needs to pioneer disruptive technologies to re-gain the upper hand. To do so, PEST-BIN mobilized 5 universities, 3 institutes, a hospital and 5 private companies. We will fight infections with very diverse tools: from nano-engineering, antibiotic production, via proteomics-based diagnostics to big data analysis using artificial intelligence (AI). PEST-BIN will train ESRs in an interdisciplinary and intersectoral environment in these impact areas: 1) Diagnostics: Current diagnostic tools fail to meet the clinical requirements for high speed, throughput, accuracy, cost and simplicity of use. PEST-BIN will develop infection diagnostic kits based on graphene, that will be functionalized by receptors capturing infection biomarkers. Our chips will contain only pure carbon and biodegradable polymers – zero environmental footprint. They will be used as “plug-and-play” disposable chips with a micro-SD jack. 2) Infection mechanisms: MS proteomics has been extensively used to analyse infectious bacteria, but our understanding of infection mechanisms has not advanced much. PEST-BIN is taking two new directions: i) generate proteomics datasets more relevant, comprehensive and time-resolved and ii) use novel computational tools (based on AI) to analyse proteomics datasets. This will lead to new drug targets for development of antibiotics. 3) Killing biofilms: Dense extracellular matrix prevents drugs from reaching bacteria inside biofilms. This limited exposure enhances development of antibiotic tolerance. PEST-BIN will engineer magnetic nanoparticles (directed by magnetic field), spiked with antibacterial graphene coating which will be loaded with antibiotics. Such molecular “nano-weapons” will physically penetrate biofilms and ensure sustained delivery of antibiotics inside biofilms.
