This project endeavors to recalibrate the accepted understanding of the Jewish-Christian interchange in the early modern East-Central Europe in light of an analysis of Jewish theological elaborations of conversion to Christianity. From the mid-seventeenth century onwards conversion to Christianity became one of the central intellectual (and not merely practical) concerns of Judaism. By attempting to reconstruct the theological conceptualizations of conversions (and not – as did other scholars – biographies of the converts), I shall challenge the prevailing scholarly paradigm of the existence of clear and impenetrable boundaries between Judaism and Christianity. My project seeks to systematically discuss this issue on the basis of an analysis of a large amount of previously unknown primary sources, thereby shedding significant new light on the Jewish Christian relations in Central Europe in the early modern period.

ATLLAS II is a logical follow-up of a recently finalized FP6 project which has as objectives the identification and assessment of advanced light-weight and high-temperature resistant materials for high-speed vehicles up to Mach 6. The material requirements are first defined through an in-depth feasibility study of a Mach 5-6 vehicle. The consortium has now this capability at hand as they can rely on a first set of validated tools, material databases and valuable experience acquired during ATLLAS-I. Starting with a preliminary aero-thermal-structural high-speed vehicle design process, further multi-disciplinary optimization and testing will follow to result into a detailed layout of an independently European defined and assessed high-speed vehicle. Special attention will be given to alleviate sonic boom and emissions at high altitudes. Throughout the design process, the aero-thermal loads will define the requirements for the proposed materials and cooling techniques needed for both the airframe and propulsion components. The former will focus on sharp leading edges, intakes and skin materials each coping with different external aero-thermal loads. The latter will be exposed to internal combustion driven loads. Both metallic (Titanium Matrix Composites and Ni-based Hollow Sphere Stackings) and non-metallic materials (Ceramic Matrix Composites and Ultra High Temperature Composites) will be evaluated. Combined aero-thermal-structural experiments will test various materials as specimens and realistic shapes at extreme conditions representative for high flight Mach numbers. Both static and cyclic tests at low and high temperatures are planned including the evaluation of their durability in terms of long duration exposure to the harsh flight conditions. The materials assigned to dedicated engine components will be exposed to realistic combustion environments. These will be combined with passive or active cooling technologies developed in ATLLAS-I.

The CHANGES network (Changing Hydro-meteorological Risks – as Analyzed by a New Generation of European Scientists) will develop an advanced understanding of how global changes (related to environmental ánd climate change as well as socio-economical change) will affect the temporal and spatial patterns of hydro-meteorological hazards and associated risks in Europe; how these changes can be assessed, modeled, and incorporated in sustainable risk management strategies, focusing on spatial planning, emergency preparedness and risk communication. The main objectives are (1) provide high-level training, teaching and research in the field of hazard and risk management in a changing environmental context to European young scientists; 2) reduce the fragmentation of research on natural processes, and 3) to develop a methodological framework combined with modelling tools for probabilistic multi-hazard risk assessment taking into account changes in hazard scenarios (related to climate change) and exposed elements at risk.The MCITN is inter-disciplinary and inter-sectoral by its nature. Active stakeholders’ participation and the dissemination of the project results are important features of the project. High-level training facilities as well as scientific and technological excellence will be provided to the next generation of researchers in the field of hazard and risk management. It is expected to foster European young scientists to be able to find employment in European organizations, in different sectors. The CHANGES network hopes to contribute to the Topical Action numbers 2 and 3 of the Hyogo Framework for Action of the UN-ISDR, as risk assessment and management, combined with innovation and education are considered essential to confront the impacts of future environmental changes (ISDR, 2009). The network consists of 11 full partners and 6 associate partners of which 5 private companies, representing 10 European countries. It it proposed to hire 12 ESR's and 3 ER's.

The concept of sustainable lifestyles refers to patterns of behaviour shaped by personal and social interactions and conditioned by environmental and socio-economic contexts that aim at improving well-being and health of present and future generations. Sustainable lifestyles embrace economic, social, technical, cultural, legal and environmental aspects at individual, local, national, EU and international levels. Sustainable lifestyles are then related to social innovation, given the crucial importance of bottom up inputs and creativity to change behaviours. Sustainable lifestyles are a relatively new idea in the sustainable consumption and production domain and comprehensive research agenda and policy strategy for promoting it is missing in the EU. The SPREAD project aims to fill this gap by consolidating existing body of knowledge from research projects and experiences of stakeholder networks, comprising researchers, health and education experts, industry, services and civil society representatives. It aims to create scenarios of sustainable lifestyles in 2050 through a social platform, focusing on sustainable living, moving, consuming and healthy life and by setting up a peoples’ forum and an online platform in order to host an ongoing dialogue open to public. By using the back-casting approach a roadmap with a timeline on how to achieve sustainable lifestyles will be developed. To support European policy makers in their work on sustainable lifestyles the project will develop a research agenda for the future. The 24-month project is coordinated by the UNEP/Wuppertal Institute Collaborating Centre for Sustainable Consumption and Production (CSCP, Germany). The project partners are the Energy Research Centre of the Netherlands (ECN), the Northern Alliance for Sustainability (ANPED, Belgium), the Regional Environmental Center for Central and Eastern Europe (REC), EuroHealthNet (Belgium), the International Institute for Industrial Environmental Economics at Lund University (ULUND, Sweden), Demos Helsinki (Finland), Ecoinstitut Barcelona (ECOI, Spain), Politecnico di Milano (Italy) and Ashoka France (ASHOKA, France).

The objective of the present proposal is to fully exploit and further develop the research potential of the Institute of Marine Biology and Genetics (IMBG) of the HCMR in the area of biodiversity. The capacities of the institute have been demonstrated by achievements recognized by the European and international scientific communities, and in the year 2005 was expressed in the external evaluation report. The present proposal will allow the institute to strengthen its research and technological development and to get established in a first-line position in biodiversity science. The location of IMBG in the heart of Eastern Mediterranean Sea, which is a biodiversity hot spot and one of the most vulnerable to climatic change sea basins, argues for the significance of establishing it as a high level centre for genomics and biodiversity research. This will be accomplished, in line with the provisions of the Work Programme of the call, by upgrading existing and acquiring new equipment, developing biodiversity research topics through hiring incoming scientific personnel, taking advantage of the knowledge and experience existing in excellent research entities of the EU though exchanges of researchers, and the organisation of workshops and seminars. Activities in this context will be carried out using a two-pronged approach designed to: a) enhance its capacities to assess biodiversity by enforcing current up-to-date high throughput genomics technologies, supported by bioinformatics and biodiversity informatics and by introducing automated and precision 3D phenotyping at meio- and macro- organismal level b) strengthen its capacity to study changes in biodiversity by developing an in-house experimental facility for in vivo experiments with the potential for manipulation of environmental conditions, as well as an innovative experimental site for long-term studies concerning the impacts on biodiversity of anthropogenic stressors and climate change on coastal ecosystems.

Virus infections remain a major cause of disease, with dramatic costs in mortality, morbidity, and economic loss worldwide. There is an unmet need for potent antiviral drugs, in particular against viruses with a (+)RNA genome which include many important pathogens of humans and animals. Antiviral drug development requires a detailed understanding of virus replication and effective translation of this knowledge into drug discovery. Europe needs well-trained experts with multidisciplinary skills to advance this field. However, few, if any, European training institutes have the broad know-how required to provide such a comprehensive training programme. The EUVIRNA partnership aims to fill this gap with the proposed EUVIRNA training programme. The EUVIRNA partnership consists of six outstanding European academic partners and four industrial partners (one pharmaceutical R&D company and three SMEs), and an associated partner (SME specialized in education). All EUVIRNA partners are recognized leaders in their field, ensuring state-of-the-art training possibilities, and their skills are highly complementary. Three Visiting Researchers will complement the expertise of the partners. EUVIRNA aims to introduce 18 ESR’s and 2 ER’s to state-of-the-art knowledge and technology applied in molecular virology and antiviral therapy, with both local and network-wide training activities. Individual research projects, research training workshops and intersectoral secondments will be supplemented with complementary skills courses to improve career development and perspectives. The industrial partners are actively involved in the entire programme, and will furthermore organize a 1-week industry-oriented conference aimed at further bridging the gap between academia and industry. Thus, EUVIRNA offers talented researchers a multidisciplinary and intersectoral training programme and prepares them for a future leading role in European molecular virology research and antiviral dru

We propose a structured PhD training programme that will prepare Early Stage Researchers for a career in public or private sector research in early developmental cognitive neurosciences. A unique feature of the project is the extensive participation of private sector partners from the technology, manufacturing and services industry in an emerging discipline that does not yet normally interact with the private sector. The last 15 years has seen important strides made in our understanding of the relation between early brain and behavioural development. The time in now ripe to exploit these developments in the from of applications of significant societal and commercial relevance.
