Ramon Llull’s Cent noms de Déu is the only versified work which entered the net of self-quotations and self-references which Llull used to promote and advertise his own production as a new alternative to his contemporary science and literature. In spite of his condemnation of troubadour lyric in his Book of Contemplation, Llull wrote many poems with a mnemonic-didactic purpose related to the learning of his epistemological system, i.e. the Art. Yet some his poems and some of his literary works are strongly related with contemporary literature and literary uses which he exploited and transformed to attract a wider audience. These literary ‘traps’ were a useful tool to spread the Art among all social classes, thus enhancing the fulfilment of Llull’s project: the conversion of all the unbelievers. The new critical edition of this work will help advancing my research on why Llull used poetic forms albeit he despised them and will provide new materials for understanding the circulation of culture and of ideas in the Mediterranean area in the XIII-XIV centuries. The outcome of this project will be a new critical edition of the text and a series of deliverables in which I will deeply analyse the context and co-texts of the poem, thanks to the expertise of the centres involved. Through this I will contribuite new material to philosophy/theology by investigating the Christian and Islamic interpretations of God's Names, to literary history understanding why Llull gave such an importance to a work which is not actually a proper poem but rather versified prose, analogous to the Arabic saj’ and to the early Office of the Hours' liturgical text, to linguistics by analysing the degree of Occitanisation of this work and in general of Llull’s poetry to understand how far his poetic language is from the abhorred troubadour lyric, finally to musicology by examining how this work was chanted, thus showing the interdisciplinary and cross-boundary value of Llull's production.

The main objective of the FALCON project is the design and manufacturing a versatile tooling system (reduction of tooling by up 40%) for the effective (30% reduction in time, 20% in cost and 20% in energy) and high quality (Aeronautic Quality Standards) production of CFRP frames for different fuselage sections subjected to different level of loads. The FALCON system will include two interrelated components (press-forming tooling and curing tooling) which will be supported through laser tracker technologies and robotic positioning/placement equipment. The press-forming tooling consists of flexible and adaptable modules designed for different frame geometries that will increase the number and typologies of produced parts. These modules have plug and produce connectors for fast and accurate connexion and individual hydraulic cylinders for a precise controlling of the kinematics of the process. In addition, the cooling/heating system will be also especially designed for improving part quality and process energy efficiency. This cooling/heating is adapted to part geometries through the combination of metallisation technologies with embedded channels and metallic additive 3D technologies applied to trickiest geometries. In other hand, the curing tooling is designed for including all the required reinforcements into the frame during the curing process independently to the face of the part in which should be placed. This will be achieved by means of positioning tooling which are produced according to each part requirements through the utilisation of high accuracy mechanising equipment. Finally, the process is continuously controlled and optimised thanks to a real time monitoring system in order to be robust and repeatable. The monitoring system is feed through integrated sensors (strain and temperature gauges) and external equipment (laser tracker) in order to obtain soundness data related to deformation, displacements and temperature at micro and macro levels.

With 3500 annual surgeries worldwide, heart transplantation is the last resort for an increasing number of patients affected by end-stage heart failure (HF). Heart transplant (HTx) can significantly increase life expectancy of HF patients but unfortunately exercise capacity and health-related quality of life of HTx recipients are still limited, due to the increased frequency of late complications mainly owing to chronotropic incompetence because of cardiac denervation. Orthotopic heart transplantation (OHT) is the most common approach of HTx, involving the complete explantation of the native heart, making surgical denervation inevitable. Therefore, the modulation of rate- and load-contractility relationship of the donor heart is significantly altered after transplantation even if using different surgical techniques. Addressing this fundamental clinical problem is the main goal of NeuHeart, that will be furthered by specifically investigating the physiology of denervated heart which will facilitate the development of a bioelectronic solution based on the closed-loop neuromodulation of the vagus nerve (VN), using a regenerative neural interface (for VN stimulation) and implanted artificial sensors (to record sensory information and close the loop). This cardiac smart neuroprosthesis will be tested in a swine model of OHT to demonstrate the feasibility of artificially re-establising vagal control in a denervated heart, by re-enabling the cardiac-vagal connection: the overall research output of the project will deliver multiple impacts, remarkably contributing to heart transplant science (fundamental research), help in the constitution of a new treatment paradigm for heart failure (clinics and society), and reach into the emerging industry of bioelectronic medicine (technology market), guaranteeing Europe a position of ‘first mover’ into this field.

NAFTI will entirely cover the topic description. NAFTI will develop, test and qualify, up to safe for flight status, a FMS supporting complex noise abatement trajectories The entire FMS will comply with the safety requirements for HAZARDOUS failure conditions in a CS-29 certification context. NAFTI will make following advancements starting from Clean Sky 1 results owned by Airbus Helicopters: - From conventional to compound rotorcraft. - From manually flown to automatically flown complex trajectories. The FMS will be a CMC CMA-9000 which is currently used in the targeted avionics suites. The project will be done by ScioTeq, located in Kortrijk (Belgium, EU) in collaboration with CMC Electronics, located in Montreal (Canada). The activities in Montreal will not require any form of EU funding. This collaboration brings together cutting edge touch enabled display expertise from ScioTeq and top notch FMS expertise from CMC. Additionally, the two locations give access to complementary markets for future exploitation of the results. NAFTI will reduce weight, power and cost at helicopter level. This will result in lower cost of ownership, lower environmental footprint and better rotorcraft performance. This improves competitiveness for the helicopter manufacturer. The exploitation of the FMS will rely on production activities in Belgium using a supply chain with a large share in Europe.

Bees are critically important for the environment and to the economy. They ensure pollination for over 80% of crops and wild plants in Europe. It is estimated that pollinators, including honey bees, bumblebees and wild bees, contribute at least 22 billion EUR (265 billion annually worldwide), each year to the European agriculture industry. Yet in the past decades the number of bees in Europe has decreased by almost 25 %. Further decrease in bee population can therefore endanger the pollination. Besides the pesticides, one of the most important causes for decrease of bees is varroa. The main goal of the project is to develop a first laser based system for the mass elimination of varroa on honey bees. The laser used for removing varroa will offer much safer and more efficient solution to the varroa problem compared to existing solution. To reach TRL6 phase around 80 thousand EUR and 11 man/month (4 persons part time) of work has been invested. To accomplish the goal (TRL9), cca 900 thousand EUR and two years of work is needed, 8,5 persons full time.

Here, we develop a highly multiplexed, quantitative, ChIP-Seq technology (hmqChIP-Seq) for commercial exploitation in high-throughput profiling of epigenetic drug on- and off-target effects. Screening efficacy and toxicology of drug candidates in early stages of development has been recognized to be an essential part of drug screening. 90% of all Phase I drug candidates do not reach FDA approval and it is estimated that a quarter of failures relates to unexpected toxicity in humans. This is stunning given that all Phase I drugs have undergone animal-heavy battery of toxicologic tests and showcases the importance of expanding the screening capabilities for drug efficacy and toxicology in human cell-based assays, be it standard culture, organoids or engineered tissues. We believe that the interaction of drugs with the epigenome is an understudied/undervalued area of pre-clinical testing and epigenetic drug profiling will be key in predicting long term outcome in humans. With hmqChIP-Seq, 96 or more drug conditions can be screened against 24 or more epigenomic markers, such as histone or DNA post-translational modifications using specific antibodies and next-generation sequencing read-out. The method development aims to reduce the necessary input material to 1000 cells per condition, allowing it to be placed downstream of typical high-throughput cell-based drug screening assay in a variety of relevant human cell models, such as induced pluripotent stem cells, engineered tissues, organoids. The technology provides a framework for high-throughput, low cost, elucidation of short and long term action and toxicology of epigenetic drugs, or any drug candidate that could affect epigenetic markers.

Progress in thin-film transistor (TFTs) over the past 40 years has been based primarily on the development/processing of new materials and on implementation of innovative device architectures together with new material combinations. The SUPERSOL project is a highly multidisciplinary research effort that aims to develop the next generation TFT technology based primarily on solution-processable low-dimensional (ultra-thin) metal oxide structures. The most important aspects of the technology include; (i) the potential for low-cost and scalable manufacturing, and (ii) performance characteristics well beyond the current state-of-the-art. To achieve these objectives I will develop low-dimensional metal oxide superlattices (SLs) comprised of sequentially deposited (via solution methods) dissimilar ultra-thin metal oxide layers. Device fabrication will be performed solely from solution methods such as spin casting, dip-coating and ultrasonic spray pyrolysis at plastic-compatible temperatures (100-200°C). By exploring the charge transport phenomena occurring at the critical 2DEG interfaces, I will be able to develop transistors with carrier mobility well beyond incumbent technologies (i.e. poly-Si TFTs with carrier mobility ~70 cm2/Vs). The first part of the project I will investigate the critical conditions that determine the formation of 2DEG systems within the oxide SLs. Best performing oxide SLs will then be used for the fabrication of TFTs on arbitrary substrates including plastic. This work will form the basis for the second part of the project which will focus solely on the development of technologically relevant devices including: memristors and novel quantum devices by manipulating at will the nature of the 2DEG formed within these simple to manufacture oxide SL based devices. Evaluation of the technology reliability/manufacturability and potential for scale-up will be performed in collaboration with the Holst Centre during the agreed secondment periods.

Heteropolitics is a project in contemporary political theory which purports to contribute to the renewal of political thought on the ‘common’ (communities and the commons) and the political in tandem. The common implies a variable interaction between differences which communicate and collaborate in and through their differences, converging partially on practices and particular pursuits. The political pertains to processes through which plural communities manage themselves in ways which enable mutual challenges, deliberation, and creative agency. Since the dawn of the 21st century, a growing interest in rethinking and reconfiguring community has spread among theorists, citizens and social movements (see e.g. Esposito 2013; Dardot & Laval 2014; Amin & Roberts 2008). This has been triggered by a complex tangle of social, economic and political conditions. Climate change, economic crises, globalization, increasing migration flows and the malaise of liberal democracies loom large among them. These issues are essentially political. Rethinking and refiguring communities goes hand in hand thus with rethinking and reinventing politics. Hence ‘hetero-politics’, the quest for another politics, which can establish bonds of commonality across differences and can enable action in common without re-enacting the closures of ‘organic’ community or the violence of transformative politics in the past. Heteropolitics will seek to break new ground by combining an extended re-elaboration of contemporary political theory with a more empirically grounded research into alternative and incipient practices of community building and self-governance in: education; the social economy; art; new modes of civic engagement by young people; new platforms of citizens’ participation in municipal politics; network communities, and other social fields (Relevant cases include Sardex, a community currency in Sardinia; Barcelona en Comú, a citizens’ platform governing the city of Barcelona, etc.)
