UHMob is a multi-site European Training Network (ETN) aimed at enabling multidisciplinary and cross-sectoral training and research on a hot topic at the interface between Materials Chemistry, Nanoscience, Spectroscopy, Crystallography, Physics, and Optoelectronics. The mission of UHMob is to widen the career perspectives of Early-Stage Researchers (ESRs), in academic and industrial sectors, in the economical, environmental, and societal important field of organic electronics. With the goal to train 15 ESRs, 6 universities, 2 research centres, and 2 companies in Europe will join their forces. The University of Kyoto, that has a unique expertise, will complement the consortium and will further increase the international dimension of the UHMob. The intensive training program, that largely takes advantage of secondments, is supported by recent scientific breakthroughs of UHMob partners to offer to ESRs the opportunity to carry research at the forefront of Science. Specifically, the scientific objective of UHMob is to gain a fundamental understanding of charge transport mechanisms in molecular semiconductors. To this goal, best-performing and well-characterized materials will be studied by a complementary set of methods, including evidently field effect transistors but also optical methods such as terahertz spectroscopy, field-induced time resolved microwave conductivity. UHMob will also explore the coupling of molecular semiconductors with the vacuum electromagnetic field, that is a radically new physical concept which holds great promises to modulate optoelectronic properties of materials.

Cyber-attacks are becoming the most important threat to critical infrastructures worldwide (including critic urban infrastructures such as finance, energy or government). These critical infrastructures are potential targets for which cyber-attacks could be potentially devastating. Due to the increasing use of web applications in any sector, attacks are very often based on exploiting web application vulnerabilities, being currently vulnerable almost any web application. The software frameworks and programming environments used to develop web applications do not provide adequate functionalities to eliminate web security risks, and the current cyber security solutions (represented mainly by WAF solutions) do not cover the end-users’ needs properly (due to their complex and costly deployment and maintenance). Moreover, the protection level they offeris limited (up to 75% of risks). To overcome this situation, this project presents HDIV, a technology that follows a security by design approach, generating self-protected web applications. HDIV is integrated within the web applications and within the web application development environments. It eliminates the complexity and maintenance cost of WAF solutions and increases the protection levels up to 90%. The MAIN OBJECTIVE of the project is to accelerate the introduction into the worldwide market of a set of products based on HDIV, contributing to solve the important threats derived from web application weaknesses. Through the activities proposed, the project leader ARIMA will complete the development of a set of market ready products that will allow exploiting the full potential of HDIV on the markets addressed: -Current market of web security solutions, where the potential customers are organizations with high security concerns requirements. -The market associated to web application developers and development companies. -A new niche market, constituted by organizations with less security concerns and requirements.

SECRETed is an EU-H2020 multidisciplinary project involving multiple stakeholders and with a strong participation of SMEs to fully exploit the potential of aquatic biotechnology and produce novel industrial products for the agrochemical, pharmaceutical, cosmetic and chemistry sectors. SECRETed will develop novel hybrid molecules with tailor-made properties obtained from the combination of biosynthetic genes of amphiphilic compounds (biosurfactants and siderophores) produced by marine and extremophilic microorganisms. The project will focus on reutilizing previous sampling efforts by screening already collected microbial collections from previous European initiatives. Machine Learning algorithms (ML) will be deployed to reveal the genetic mechanisms responsible for their biosynthesis and to expand the chemical diversity of such bio-based compounds. To this end, databases inspection and new collected data will be employed to construct a unique microbial amphiphilic compound chemical space comprehending molecular structures, physicochemical characteristics, associated bioactivities and revealed genetic mechanisms responsible for their biosynthesis. To expand the chemical diversity and enhance the industrial sustainable exploitation of such bio-based compounds, Biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) in charge of the production of these molecules will be reverse engineered by standardizing and modularizing the genetic elements comprising such clusters. Their potential benefits will be broadened by looking for Industry-driven (agrochemical, cosmetic, nutrition and health) formulations based on the engineered combinations of the genetic elements expressed in suitable microbial hosts. New strains will then be designed, built and tested in an iterative process for the development of viable and sustainable industrial processes.

Negative gas adsorption (NGA) is a new, counterintuitive and paradoxical phenomenon, for the first time reported by my group in 2016: Normal solid materials with significant outer or inner surface area always take up gas when the pressure in the surrounding reservoir is increased (adsorption). NGA networks instead react at a certain point in the opposite direction: They release gas upon external pressure increase, leading to an overall pressure amplification in a closed system. Comparable phenomena have never been reported before. What is so exciting about NGA? We have a unique material in hand, that counteracts to an external force by force amplification. So far NGA has solely been observed in one of our new coordination polymers, featuring a colossal selfcompression associated with a mesopore-to-micropore transformation. Gas pressure amplifying materials could lead to important innovations in gas releasing rescue systems, pneumatic control systems (production, transportation), micropumps, microfluidic devices, pneumatic actuators, and artificial lungs. A fundamental understanding of the physical mechanisms, structures, and thermodynamic boundary conditions is an essential prerequisite for any industrial application of this counterintuitive phenomenon. Combining strong synthetic methodologies with advanced analytical techniques, AMPLIPORE will elucidate the characteristic molecular and mesoscopic materials signatures as well as thermodynamic boundary conditions of NGA phenomena. We will elaborate a generic NGA-materials concept to tailor the pressure amplification and explore temperature and pressure ranges at which NGA can be applied. Developing tailormade instrumentation for kinetic investigations of NGA will give fundamental insights into the intrinsic and macroscopic dynamics of crystal-to-crystal transformations for applications in micropneumatic systems.

Complex networks are an essential ingredient of modern life, and underpin integral parts of our biological, physical, technological and socio-economic universe. Thus far, such networks have been mainly represented as graphs. However, while graphs can capture pairwise interactions between nodes, fundamental interactions in networks often take place between multiple nodes. For example, in socio-economic networks, the joint coordinated activity of several agents (e.g. buyer, seller, broker); the formation and interactions of coalitions; the emergence of peer pressure; and the existence of triadic closure are all prevalent. The objective of this interdisciplinary project is to investigate such non-binary interactions in complex networks and their dynamical implications. Specifically, we will investigate how such interactions can be taken into account for the modelling, analysis and design of complex networks. To achieve this, we will extend the geometrical framework of simplicial complexes to account systematically for weighted non-binary couplings of nodes, node-pairs, triplets, etc., allowing us to consistently assess and design higher-order interactions. Here, we will focus on consensus and random walks as prototypical examples of a range of other phenomena. Working at the interface of Network Science and Control Theory, we will combine recent tools from both fields and apply our results to real biological and socio-economic networks and data. We will investigate how the consideration of non-binary couplings can yield an improved understanding of the propagation of external shocks in socio-economic networks, and help to reveal dynamical groupings in networks emerging from systems biology experiments. Providing a synergy between the applicant’s multidisciplinary background and the leading Systems, Optimization and Control research of the hosts, this proposal holds the potential to leverage the candidate’s career and yield scientific results of general relevance.

Children born preterm or with a small size at birth have increased risks of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes in adulthood. These intriguing associations strongly suggest that common diseases have at least part of their origins in early fetal life. From both an etiological and preventive perspective, it is important to disentangle the early fetal critical periods and causal pathways. An accumulating body of evidence suggests that early pregnancy, or even the preconception period, may influence the risk of cardiovascular and metabolic disease throughout the lifecourse. The main hypothesis for this project is that adverse exposures before or very early in pregnancy induce embryonic and placental developmental adaptations, which permanently affect cardiovascular and metabolic development and predispose individuals to both adverse outcomes at birth and cardiovascular and metabolic dysfunction and diseases in later life. I will use an integrated epidemiological, molecular and clinical full lifecourse approach from preconception to adulthood embedded in three population-based cohort studies. Innovative element are: 1) focus on developmental adaptations during the embryonic phase and early placentation assessed by advanced imaging studies at 6, 8, 10 and 12 weeks of gestation; (2) detailed cardiovascular and metabolic studies in infancy and late childhood, including 3T MRI of the heart, aorta, liver and abdomen, metabolomics analyses; and (3) genome-wide DNA-methylation studies to identify specific DNA-methylation changes related to preconception or early pregnancy exposures, which persist in late childhood and adulthood and are associated with cardiovascular and metabolic outcomes in later life. With these approaches, this project will provide unique and important new perspectives into the earliest origins of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes and will ultimately contribute to development of preventive strategies focused on future parents and children.

The MAESTRI project aims to advance the sustainability of European manufacturing and process industries. This is done by providing a management system in the form of a flexible and scalable platform, and to guide and simplify the implementation of an innovative approach, the Total Efficiency Framework. The overall aim of this framework is to encourage a culture of improvement within process industries by assisting the decision-making process, supporting the development of improvement strategies and helping define the priorities to improve the company's environmental and economic performance. Its development and validation will be achieved through application in four real industrial settings across a variety of activity sectors. The Total Efficiency Framework will be based on four main pillars to overcome the current barriers and promote sustainable improvements: a) an effective management system targeted at process and continuous improvement; b) efficiency assessment tools to define improvement and optimisation strategies and support decision-making processes; c) integration with a toolkit for Industrial Symbiosis focusing on material and energy exchange; d) a software Platform, based on the Internet of Things (IoT), to simplify the concept implementation and ensure an integrated control of improvement process. Over a period of 4 years, the project will deliver exploitable resultsclustered into technological outputs (including eco-innovative products, processes and services tailored to industrial end-users) and structured solutions (involving technical, economical, legislative and policy solutions synergistically combined).

Green hydrogen produced by electrolysis might become a key energy carrier for the implementation of renewable energy as a cross-sectional connection between the energy sector, industry and mobility. Proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolysis is the preferred technology for this purpose, yet large facilities can hardly achieve FCH-JU key performance indicators (KPI) in terms of cost, efficiency, lifetime and operability. Consequently, a game changer in the technology is necessary. PRETZEL consortium will develop a 25 kW PEM electrolyzer system based on a patented innovative cell concept that is potentially capable of reaching 100 bar differential pressure. The electrolyzer will dynamically operate between 4 and 6 A cm^(-2) and 90 °C achieving an unprecedented efficiency of 70%. This performance will be maintained for more than 2000 h of operation. Moreover, the capital cost of stack components will be largely reduced by the use of non-precious metal coatings and advanced ceramic aerogel catalyst supports. Likewise, the system balance of plant (BoP) will be optimized for cost reduction and reliability. The high pressure hydrogen generator will become part of the product portfolio of a German manufacturer but at the end of PREZEL, this company will establish a supply business partnership and R&D collaboration with France, Spain, Greece and Rumania, strengthening and consolidating cooperation among EU states with contrasting economies. Lastly, the hydrogen produced by the PEM electrolyzer will not be wasted, but rather used for feeding the fuel cell test stations in one of the partner’s laboratory.
