The contribution of mental disorders to the Global Burden of Diseases (GBD) Study is now well recognized – mental disorders account for 6.8% of the total burden worldwide. Because the GBD’s health metric Disability-Adjusted Life Year (DALY) combines the impact of both morbidity (Years Lived with Disability; YLDs) and mortality (Years of Life Lost; YLLs), it has foregrounded the previously neglected contribution of mental disorders to the global disease burden. However, this health metric does not account for comorbidity adequately, which leads to an underestimation of excess morbidity and mortality associated with mental disorders. This bias has serious implications for service planning and resource allocation. The focus of FundaMentalHM is to use aggregated data from the GBD Study and register-based individual-level data from the whole Danish population to fill the existing methodological gaps, by developing and applying new methodologies in order to better estimate the burden of mental disorders. FundaMentalHM will (i) provide the most comprehensive detailed analysis of comorbidity between mental disorders and other general medical conditions, (ii) advance the area of science related to health metrics by incorporating dependent (instead of independent) comorbidity to the estimates, and (iii) use innovative methods to better estimate the excess mortality associated with mental disorders. In accomplishing FundaMentalHM’s objectives, I will provide a more accurate, unbiased view of the true burden – including true number of deaths – associated with mental disorders. These estimates are essential in order to guide the WHO Mental Health Action Plan 2013-2020 and the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In addition, I expect that the suite of methods developed as part of FundaMentalHM project can be applied to a wide range of other disorders.

Dementia is a syndrome in which there is cognitive function deterioration and memory loss. Alzheimer's disease consists or contributes to 60–70% of dementia cases. At present, worldwide around 50 million people have dementia, but nearly 10 million new cases are added every year. The total number of people suffering from dementia is projected to reach 82 million in 2030 and 152 million by 2050 – a 3-fold increase. This puts tremendous pressure on the healthcare system and society as a whole. Equally important, dementia is overwhelming for patients' families and their carers, as they require full-time care and watch. For all these reasons it timely and imperative to develop a low-cost and efficient full-time health monitoring solution. The goal of this research is to develop an unobtrusive system Suite (ViSionRF) that will be able to capture the vital physiological signals of users (breathing, heart rate, heart beat shape, body position), remotely by using low-power radar, Wi-Fi and RFID signal technologies. Envision a home with a single remote and unobtrusive device that acts as a stethoscope, heart monitor, irregular breath detector, and posture sensor. Such a home would have the ability to monitor your breathing, your heart (rate and pulse shape), and your position and alert your doctor when an emergency occurs. Such a home would help tremendously impaired citizens (e.g. dementia patients) and their carers. Unlike traditional patient monitoring systems that require users to ‘wear’ devices and sensors, the proposed system does not require wearing any wearable electronic or on-body sensor. This maximizes mobility and makes the system completely transparent to the user. This is important as dementia sufferers repeatedly forget or decline to ‘wear’ their sensors. The goal will be achieved by developing a hybrid technology that merges Wi-Fi, radar and RFID responses with advanced signal processing algorithms that are further trained using powerful machine learning.

Founded in 2002 in Brescia, Northern Italy, our company Zinco Service is an international provider in advanced technical services, consultancy and training for the hot dip galvanizing (HDG) industry. Starting originally offering zinc transfer services for companies using HDG furnaces, we, Zinco Service, guided by our founders’ long experience as galvanizers and the technical expertise of our technicians, have become a specialist in HDG process and technology. Strongly focused on innovation, we have carried out extensive R & D in cooperation with acclaimed research institutions, this leading to the development and launch of an innovative technique for the inspection of galvanizing kettles, i.e. our Kettle Inspection Device (K.I.D.) in 2006. Today, we support our customers in 100% of their HDG management: from the inspection to the change of their HDG kettle, the furnace and burners repair, the optimization of their process. Listening to our customers’ feedback and concern on the kettle corrosion (limiting its lifetime to 5-7 years), the energy waste (the process efficiency of current furnaces is around 65%) and the environmental impact (as furnaces produce carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxides), we have been working with our partner Gimeco Impianti, a galvanizing plant and equipment manufacturer with 39 years of industrial experience, on a new “smart” furnace, called e-Furnace: by perfectly controlling the process and optimizing the overall design, we can decrease the energy used by 30% and increase the process efficiency by 25% while decreasing its environmental impact. With e-Furnace, Zinco and Gimeco will offer a 360° service as, through our partnership, we will provide the metalworking industries and more particularly the galvanizing companies with a new HDG furnace technology, allowing us to consolidate our position and significantly increase our turnover (+€34 million of turnover by 2022).

A small molecule AMP activated protein kinase (AMPK) activator, denoted O304, as a novel innovative drug for the treatment of type 2 diabetes (AMPK-DIAB)

Framework: Horizon 2020 — Industrial Leadership

Theme: Biotechnology
Action type: SME instrument
Countries involved: Sweden
Call: Dedicated support to biotechnology SMEs closing the gap from lab to market (H2020-SMEINST-2-2016-2017, 2016)

This project aims to close the gap to the market for a small molecule AMP activated protein kinase (AMPK) activator, denoted O304, as a novel first-in-class drug for the treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and associated cardiovascular complications, including heart failure and peripheral arterial disease. The number of adults around the world with diabetes quadrupled from 108 million in 1980 to 422 million in 2014. About 90% of these people have type 2 diabetes — a major cause of kidney failure, blindness, nerve damage, amputations, heart attack and stroke. It is estimated that only approx. 10 % of T2 diabetics reach the goal of living a complication free life. Today, patients diagnosed with T2D are recommended a change in lifestyle and the drug Metformin is the first line of treatment. When Metformin becomes insufficient, a number of add-on treatments are used, including insulin. None of the existing drugs, however, reduces insulin resistance - a primary cause of obesity-induced T2D. Betagenon has developed and pre-validated the first candidate AMPK activator drug in T2 diabetics, a key regulator of energy balance, both on a single cell level and the whole organism level. Phase I clinical data show that O304 reduces fasting plasma glucose, the hallmark of T2D, in patients with T2D on stable metformin treatment, and increases the rate of hyperaemic blood in calf muscle in middle aged obese individuals. The project is strategically focused on performing a Phase IIa proof-of-concept validation of O304. This will enable Betagenon to commercialize the product through outlicensing to a Phase IIb and Phase III validation partner. Diabetes is an epidemic that threatens the economies of all EU member states. The project addresses this challenge by delivering a novel drug treatment regimen to clinicians and their patients. O304 will fill the knowledge gap on the EU level, as to date no company has been able to pre-validate an efficient small molecule AMPK activator.

Farming is facing many economic challenges in terms of productivity and cost-effectiveness, as well as an increasing labour shortage partly due to depopulation of rural areas. Furthermore, reliable detection, accurate identification and proper quantification of pathogens and other factors affecting both plant and animal health, are critical to be kept under control in order to reduce economic expenditures, trade disruptions and even human health risks. AFarCloud will provide a distributed platform for autonomous farming that will allow the integration and cooperation of agriculture Cyber Physical Systems in real-time in order to increase efficiency, productivity, animal health, food quality and reduce farm labour costs. This platform will be integrated with farm management software and will support monitoring and decision-making solutions based on big data and real time data mining techniques. The AFarCloud project also aims to make farming robots accessible to more users by enabling farming vehicles to work in a cooperative mesh, thus opening up new applications and ensuring re-usability, as heterogeneous standard vehicles can combine their capabilities in order to lift farmer revenue and reduce labour costs. The achievements from AFarCloud will be demonstrated in 3 holistic demonstrators (Finland, Spain and Italy), including cropping and livestock management scenarios and 8 local demonstrators (Latvia, Sweden, Spain and Czech Republic) in order to test specific functionalities and validate project results in relevant environments located in different European regions. AFarCloud outcomes will strengthen partners’ market position boosting their innovation capacity and addressing industrial needs both at EU and international levels. The consortium represents the whole ICT-based farming solutions’ value chain, including all key actors needed for the development, demonstration and future market uptake of the precision farming framework targeted in the project.

The project implements the goals of the Horizon 2020 Work Programme “Europe in a Changing World: inclusive, innovative and reflective societies”. As its name indicates, REITER 3 is the third phase of a project that originally started in 2016 and that has the overarching goal of contributing to the monitoring and assessment of research and innovation (R&I) policies in Europe and beyond. It does this by surveying countries on their R&I policies, linking the collected policy data with other information (including statistics and other databases), and providing open data services through a dedicated web portal, the STIP Compass (http://stip.oecd.org). REITER 3 will maintain and update this infrastructure, and will aim to extend its uses and user base through new topic-based analysis and web services. Specifically, in a first part, the project will renew and upgrade STIP Compass databases and re-design the website’s graphical user interfaces. Among other things, this will will involve administering the 2021 edition of the EC-OECD STIP Survey. The project will also raise data quality, ensure linked data is up-to-date, revise and deepen taxonomies, and make the data accessible in STIP Compass. In a second part, the project will expand the uses and user base of STIP Compass by collecting data on and analysing topics that are high-priority for policymakers and analysts (such as the Covid-19 crisis and the climate emergency), and surfacing this in dedicated topic portals. This topic focus will make STIP Compass more relevant, raise its profile and reputation, and further incentivise countries to provide high quality data. Overall, the project’s overarching goal is to enhance the evidence base for R&I policies, which should in turn contribute to better national and European R&I policy and programme design.

A paradigm example of precise predictions in complex systems is the universal scaling of correlation functions close to phase transitions, with their associated critical exponents. The extension of this concept to time dependent problems has been studied in the classical regime as well as in the quantum regime. A clean experimental confirmation of this prediction in a quantum system as well as of its connection to non-local entanglement generation is the defined goal of this project. The experimental system builds on atomic Bose-Einstein condensates with precisely controlled internal degrees of freedom. Their physics can be mapped onto extensively studied spin systems in the large-collective-spin limit. While the mean evolution of these large spins is well captured by classical descriptions, the detailed study of the fluctuations can reveal particle entanglement. The technology for such high-precision measurements has been pioneered by the PI, demonstrating entanglement in spin-squeezed as well as non-gaussian entangled states. In this project one-dimensional gases will be realized allowing for the implementation of a spin system revealing a quantum phase transition. While the spatial spin-spin correlation functions can already be detected, the future experimental development concerns the implementation of non-demolition/weak measurements of the spin degree of freedom. This makes time-time and time-space correlation functions for the first time accessible, as a necessary prerequisite for the envisaged studies of universal dynamics out of equilibrium and the experimental confirmation of non-local entanglement. Observation of scale invariance in the then available full correlation landscape will allow the verification of the presence of a non-thermal fixed point. The successful demonstration will lead to a paradigm shift in the description of quantum dynamics in complex systems and will also open up new routes for generating quantum resources for quantum metrology.
