The ScanDigiLit project will digitally investigate how the Italian-French discourse on Scandinavian authors and culture has been structured and evolved through articles that appeared in Italian and French cultural magazines between 1870 and 1914. Through a newly developed analytical method rooted in the digital humanities, I will be able to visually examine and understand the perceived narrative trends and reception structure of Scandinavian literature in Italian and French cultural magazines. In order to find semantic correlations between significant words in their context and their occurence, I will analyse the evolution of the discussion on Scandinavian authors through an interpretation of articles, developing a lexical research methodology on linguistically different corpora referring to the same cultural area. By combining unexplored corpora with unprecedented analytical tools, the ScanDigiLit project will uncover new insights into a crucial period of Scandinavian literary history.

Soil degradation is considered a global emergency. 60-70% of EU soils are degraded due to unsustainable management practices. bioSOILUTIONS aims to tackle this problem by building upon previous key EU projects involving key consortium partners and bringing them forward, the main ones being WaysTUP! (SAV-Coord., DRAXIS), VALUEWASTE (CETENMA-Coord., NURESYS, GAIKER and ENTOMO) and Scalibur (CSCP and G!E). We will optimise four bio-waste valorisation routes (blood hydrolysate, frass, N-struvite, K-struvite) into advanced bio-waste soil improvers with the aim of enhancing nutrient recovery from bio-waste (e.g., N, P, K, organic matter) thus reducing landfilling and incineration. These valorisation routes will render a range of bio-waste feedstocks, that will be combined in different formulations together with key additives (e.g., Non-Microbial Plant Bioestimulants -NMPB-, Microbial Plant Bio stimulants -MPB- and Controlled Nutrient Release Coatings -CNRCS), into at least five bio-waste soil improvers. They will be co-created by working along with three Living Labs (in Flanders– Belgium, Valencia and Murcia–Spain), involving critical soil sector actors (companies and entrepreneurs, end-users, research centres, public bodies and civil society) to guarantee a good market fit of the developed soil improvers, coverage of sectorial needs and compliance with regulatory requirements (e.g., new Fertilising Products Regulation). Moreover, we will design an upscaling roadmap and a circular business model for each valorisation route to engage entrepreneurs and relevant soil companies to foster the commercialisation of advanced bio-waste soil improvers across the EU. bioSOILUTIONS long-term impacts will contribute to reach targets of key EU policies and international commitments including the European Green Deal and UN Sustainable Development Goals 6, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15.

When standard medications are not appropriate for a patient’s needs, e.g., due to their allergies, retail pharmacies must rely on compounding pharmacies to blend raw ingredients and produce a personalized medication to order. Given the growth in demand for personalized medications and the legal mandate in some countries that compel pharmacies to provide such medications to patients, the efficient operation of compounding pharmacies is critical to timely access to medications. However, there are complex operational dynamics when sequencing production driven by differences in medications and the need to prevent cross-contamination that lead to production delays for patients. Inspired by discussions with the management team of a compounding pharmacy, this project aims to improve operational efficiency and reduce delays by developing a dynamic production control algorithm that sequences medication production. The challenge of identifying optimal policies for multi-product production systems in the presence of set-up times has lead researchers to focus on heuristics, however, existing policies do not account for the sequence-dependent set-up times or batch processing in this setting. We propose and evaluate a theory-driven heuristic based on a novel modification of an optimal control engineering technique, known as the State-Dependent Riccati Equation approach. The performance of this heuristic is to be evaluated both theoretically as well as numerically relative to alternative heuristic policies via simulation. This contributes to the operations management and management literature, through the development and analysis of an innovation in production governance, a critical component of the industrial value chain in this setting. Moreover, the proposed algorithm can be modified for use in other complex production settings where optimal policies are intractable, and decision-makers must rely on heuristics.

From edge to cloud, big data analytics is growing fast, and its energy consumption has become a reason of concern for national grids and they generate significant carbon emissions. The GLACIATION project aims to address this issue through energy-efficient privacy preserving data operations. By developing a novel Distributed Knowledge Graph (DKG) that stretches across the edge-core-cloud architecture, reduction in the energy consumption for data processing will be achieved through AI enforced minimal data movement operations. GLACIATION will achieve significant power consumption reduction through optimizing the location where analytics are carried out and where data is placed. The projects Metadata framework will provide tools that incorporate privacy and trust aspects in the data operations. GLACIATION is demonstrated on three relevant industry settings which benefit from optimized data movement and power consumption reduction. More specifically, GLACIATION use cases cover public-service, manufacturing, energy and enterprise data analytics.

AI-BRIDGES: Enhancing Cultural Heritage Impact through Generative AI and Linked Open Data AI-BRIDGES addresses the disconnect between Cultural Heritage Institutions (CHIs), Linked Open Data (LOD) platforms like Wikidata, and Generative AI (GenAI), limiting their potential to create a robust, interconnected, responsible and impactful data ecosystem. The project builds three key bridges to overcome this challenge: 1. CHIs and LOD: Developing a low-code/no-code pipeline to streamline CHIs' integration and management of cultural heritage metadata in LOD platforms, reducing technical complexity and improving data accessibility at scale. 2. LOD and LLMs: Utilizing Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) to connect LOD platforms with large language models (LLMs), resulting in more accurate, inclusive, and culturally relevant AI outputs aligned with Responsible and Explainable AI practices. 3. Users and LOD: Engaging students in participatory data curation to address bias, misinformation, and knowledge gaps in cultural heritage narratives while enhancing digital literacy. AI-BRIDGES will combine interdisciplinary approaches from Digital Humanities (DH), AI, education, and cultural heritage management to create scalable, open-access tools and methodologies that benefit CHIs, researchers, and the public, while advancing the responsible integration of GenAI into the cultural heritage sector. The project is also designed as a career development initiative to help the researcher build interdisciplinary expertise in DH, AI, and cultural heritage data management, facilitating opportunities for significant contributions to the integration of GenAI with LOD platforms. As an established leader in Open Knowledge and digital education, the fellowship will enable her to make significant contributions to the integration of GenAI with LOD platforms, advancing her career toward founding an innovation center that bridges CHIs, education, and transformative technologies like GenAI.

The project will support e-IRG in providing advice on policy-making towards inclusive, federated, user-driven and resilient e-Infrastructures and their related services. The main activities include the operation of the e-IRG secretariat, i.e. organisation of e-IRG events and provision of secretarial support to e-IRG, its Chair and Executive Board and the provision of policy support towards the development and publishing of policy papers and recommendations on the e-Infrastructure spectrum, as well as the support to related e-IRG working groups and task forces, which are also vital for e-IRG. The e-IRG analytical capacity for its policy documents will be strengthened with external experts, both from the e-IRG delegates and their countries, and from well-known experts in the filed who are invited as speakers in the e-IRG workshops. The communication and outreach activities, include the dissemination of the outputs of e-IRG throughout the European Research Area (ERA), the external and internal e-IRG web presence and maintenance of the social media outlets. Liaison activities are also planned with targeted stakeholders, such as ESFRI related ones, to jointly underpin the interworking of e-Infrastructures with the thematic infrastructures. Through these supporting activities by e-IRGSP7 and in its capacities, e-IRG will contribute to the implementation of EOSC, including better coordination among national entities (e.g., NRENs, national computing/clouds infrastructures) and to a more inclusive e-Infrastructure ecosystem. The consortium is very experienced and well-connected in the field through long involvement in previous e-IRG support projects and other EOSC key projects and can contribute towards better e-Infrastructure coordination and the digital transformation in the ERA. A new partner (TU-Wien) is also joining bringing experience from the EOSC Secretariat.

Thermodynamics tells us that controlling the magnetic state of media at increasingly higher rates and simultaneously consuming less energy are mutually exclusive. This fundamental dilemma has dramatic societal and environmental consequences as data centres are rapidly becoming the biggest consumers of electricity world-wide. SPARTACUS proposes to resolve this fundamental dilemma and thereby to inspire conceptually new technology for ultrafast, nearly non-dissipative data storage. State-of-the-art data storage and non-volatile memory are predominantly based on ferromagnets. Antiferromagnets possess much faster spin dynamics and can sustain bits writing even at THz rates. However, the lack of a net magnetization in thermodynamic equilibrium requires exceedingly strong magnetic fields to control their magnetic moments. This fact has significantly hindered not only applications, but even fundamental studies of antiferromagnetism. SPARTACUS aims to overcome this fundamental problem and achieve nearly non-dissipative and fastest writing of bits at write-rewrite rates surpassing the 1 THz landmark. Using spectrally and temporally tailored laser pulses to pump electronic and phononic states mediating efficient light-spin coupling, we will push dielectric antiferromagnets strongly out-of-equilibrium, and explore the susceptibility of spins to external stimuli in this non-equilibrium state. SPARTACUS will develop novel ultrafast magnetometers and reveal yet unexplored non-thermodynamic routes to coherently steer spins to a desired bit state. Coherence-mediated ultrafast mechanisms ensure reversible energy transfer to overcome the potential barrier between stable bit states, minimizing the increase of entropy and leading to vanishing heat load. Although SPARTACUS is fundamental in nature, its long-term ambition is to shift the paradigm from the conventional, slow, energy consuming ferro- to ultrafast and nearly non-dissipative antiferromagnetic data storage.

Metastatic melanoma is a hard-to-treat disease and it remains as one of the most worrisome cancer. There is an urgent need to improve the current therapies (chemotherapy, radiotherapy) that have a limited efficacy. A single therapy is not efficient to tackle metastatic melanoma and a combination of therapies is thus emerging as a necessity to efficiently eradicate all cancer cells. Recently, the development of immunotherapies has shown promises, in particular chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cells. Nevertheless, the physical barriers represented by cellular and non-cellular components of the tumor microenvironment combined to the abnormal tumor vasculature and high interstitial fluid pressure, hamper an efficient tumour infiltration of CAR-T cells. In this context, thanks to a network of 18 partners (including 10 non-academic partners), MELOMANES aims to train doctoral researchers for the development of a combined therapy exploiting the properties of magnetic nanoparticles to induce damage on the tumor microenvironment by magnetic and optic hyperthermia in order to facilitate the infiltration of CAR-T cells. This therapeutic approach combining hyperthermia and immunotherapy is versatile, as it could be also applied to other types of solid tumors. Research and transferable training of the doctoral researchers will be performed in a highly interdisciplinary, intersectoral, and international environment. In addition to acquiring skills related to the research project, they will be trained also in open science, communication and dissemination, responsible research and innovation, circular economy, ethics, data management, entrepreneurship, marketing, intellectual property, and gender dimension in research. Their competences will be validated through certification and qualification examination, allowing a new generation of highly skilled doctoral researchers to emerge with a high-level training in particular in the multidisciplinary field of nanomedicine.

The Proof-of-Concept project will develop the hardware and software architecture for a novel ultrasound scanner capable of performing real-time 3-D super-resolution imaging of the microcirculation in humans. The scanner is based on the methods developed in the SURE ERC synergy grant project for Super-resolution Ultrasound Real-time imaging using Erythrocytes (SURE). The approach can non-invasively visualize the microvascular structures in the human body for vessel diameters down to 28 μm from data acquired in just 2 seconds. The results of several clinical studies will be used as a proof-of-concept, and a prototype scanner with a touch-sensitive graphical interface will be developed and tested in a hospital environment. Documents will be made specifying the architecture of both the software and the hardware platform for potential commercial implementation of the approach. This will form the basis for either a potential spin-out company or a license agreement with a commercial ultrasound company.

Stimuli-responsive CHiral FOldamers in solution and Light-emitting diodes” (SKYFALL) will extend the frontier of supramolecular and materials chemistry through (i) the synthesis of helical fluorescent (photo) responsive foldamers, (ii) identifying the physico-chemical parameters governing the single or multiple helical state and assessing their impact on (chir)optical properties and (iii) incorporating the most promising chiral fluorescent foldamers into CP-OLEDs. Stereogenic centres will be introduced to the foldamer backbone to control its helicity, generating a chiral environment for the fluorophores allowing for circularly polarised luminescence (CPL). Fluorophores with a broad range of emission profiles and electron donating and accepting capabilities will be grafted to the foldamer backbone through reliable Cu-Assisted alkyne-azide cycloadditions (CuAACs). A photoswitch will also be incorporated to a series of foldamers generating opportunities to control hybridisation through their response to light irradiation in addition to temperature, concentration and solvophobic effects. The hybridisation capabilities of these foldamers will be assessed and the equilibria between single- and double-stranded helices (homoduplexes) will be determined under the aforementioned parameters. Donor-acceptor interactions of the appended fluorophores will be exploited to also target heteroduplexes. Synthesising such supramolecular structures constitutes a leap forward in the field of foldamers and more generally supramolecular chemistry, providing an innovative strategy to reach CPL in the visible range. The effect of these hybridisation states on the chiroptical properties will, therefore, be studied in solution and solid-state (thin films). The foldamer hybridisation states that exhibit the greatest dissymmetry values and quantum yields in the solid-state will be incorporated into CP-OLED devices.
