Forensic investigation is a key component in the fight against crime and the protection of EU societies. At present it is hampered by a lack of protocols and training in carrying out forensic analysis on CBRN-contaminated materials. The aim of GIFT-CBRN is to develop a forensic toolbox for investigating CBRN incidents. This toolbox would provide (1) procedures, sampling methods and detection of CBRN agents at the crime scene, (2) traditional forensic laboratory methods for contaminated evidence and (3) laboratory methods for profiling the CBRN agents released at the incident. The procedures and methods are will be set up and validated according to ISO17025 and the system validation will be performed by a final exercise. Procedures for chain of custody, QC to ensure the integrity of the evidence and investigations done on the evidence from crime scene to court will be developed. An education and training curriculum related to the developed procedures, best practices and methods will be designed and progressed to implementation. Underpinning the above aims, research will be carried out to develop novel methodologies to enable traditional forensic science (DNA, fingerprint and electronic devices) to be carried out on CBRN contaminated exhibits and analytical procedures to be carried out that not only provide information about the CBRN agent itself but also through CBRN profiling provide in-depth information which can give valuable forensic information, for example points of origin. The project team includes forensic research laboratories, potential users of the expected developments, including public and private users, and SMEs who will be able to bring the new technologies developed within the project to market.

The PHOtonic tools for Quantitative imaging in Cells and tissUeS IDP (PHOQUS) will seed a revolution in the development and application of novel imaging modalities and multimodalities to enable the quantitative investigation of biological processes at multiple size regimes from the molecular and cellular to the tissue and organ level scale , by training graduate Physicists and Biologists for the first time to integrate seamlessly photonics, nanotechnology, advanced spectroscopy and novel spectral regions with the latest advances in imaging and diagnostics technology. The photonics focus on new tools and sources will open up opportunities to investigate the mechanisms and nuclear dynamics that control spindle formation and chromosome separation during mitosis as well as cell migration dynamics and mechanics during early embryonic development and the development of cancer in the gut. This will provide a strong interdisciplinary component to the training programme, linking Dundee’s extensive and world-class expertise in Life Science and pioneering work in the Medical School. The training programme will lead automatically to advances and new knowledge on how to harness these new technologies, and new strategies. PHOQUS is strongly intersectoral, with close involvement of 10 Associated Industrial Partners and 9 Academic distributed over 7 European countries. Imaging science is key for the success of any fundamental or applied research programme aiming to uncover the complexities of the life at multiple scales and to finding new solutions to diseases and conditions. By developing ESRs as a cohort they will avoid becoming isolated in between physics and biology, developing a true identity as interdisciplinary scientists: essentially "problem oriented physicists” or "solution oriented biologists". PHOQUS aims to develop researchers with the correct mindset to discover and address the big problems in biology from an early stage in their research careers.

All legal proceedings rely on the production of evidence in order to take place. Electronic evidence is no different from traditional evidence in that is necessary for the party introducing it into legal proceedings, to be able to demonstrate that it is no more and no less than it was, when it came into their possession. In other words, no changes, deletions, additions or other alterations have taken place. The very nature of data and information held in electronic form makes it easier to manipulate than traditional forms of data. When acquired and exchanged integrity of the information must be maintained and proved. Legislations on criminal procedures in many European countries were enacted before these technologies appeared, thus taking no account of them and creating a scenario where criteria are different, uncertain, regulations are not harmonized and aligned and therefore exchange among MS jurisdictions and at transnational level is very hard to be realized. What is missing is a Common European Framework to guide policy makers, Law Enforcement Agencies and judges when dealing with digital evidence treatment and exchange. EVIDENCE aims at providing a road map (guidelines, recommendations, technical standards) for realising the missing Common European Framework for the systematic and uniform application of new technologies in the collection, use and exchange of evidence. This road map incorporating standardized solutions would enable policy maker to realize an efficient regulation, treatment and exchange of digital evidence, LEAs as well as judges/magistrates and prosecutors and lawyers practising in the criminal field to have at their disposal as legal/technological background a Common European Framework allowing them to gather, use and exchange digital evidences according to common standards and rules.EVIDENCE activities will enable the implementation of a stable network of experts in digital forensics communicating and exchanging their opinions.

The first aim that SPARKS will target is to promote awareness of existing and emerging smart grid cyber-security risks to stakeholders, including energy network operators, industry and policy makers. SPARKS will develop procedural and technical countermeasures, and provide cost assess-ments of the developed technologies via business cases. In addition, the project will investigate privacy issues related to smart grid development, especially in the areas related to customers like smart metering, taking into account existing legislation and providing guidance for future activities. Technology development in SPARKS focuses on three core concepts required for secure smart grids: (1) cyber-attack resilient control systems; (2) real-time network monitoring of SCADA-based control systems; and (3) novel hardware security technologies for smart metering applications. The control systems research will investigate the relationship between key control loops in a smart grid, and propose designs that enable semi-autonomous islands of control, which maintain stable operation in the face of attack or disruption. Breakthroughs in this area will propel the European smart grid infrastructure into a world-leading position. Real-time network monitoring and data analysis is key for building advanced SCADA-specific intrusion detection systems, which would protect European smart grid network assets and provide new commercial opportunities for European equipment manufacturers. SPARKS results will reduce the attack surface of smart grid systems, detect cyber-attacks in real-time, and improve the resilience of smart grid infrastructure during an attack. SPARKS will provide a deeper understanding of the threats, vulnerabilities and economic consequences of cyber-attacks on smart grid infrastructure, raise awareness amongst industry leaders, present convincing information to stakeholders, lead the debate and draw through action to improve the cyber readiness of European network operators.

The objective of EDUWORKS is to train talented early-stage researchers in the socio-economic and psychological dynamics of the labour supply and demand matching processes at aggregated and disaggregated levels. EDUWORKS brings together researchers from several academic disciplines. Supply and demand matches at the aggregated levels of the national or European labour force are widely studied in Labour Economics. Processes of supply and demand matching at the meso-level are studied in Sociology, especially the dynamics of occupational boundaries and occupational licensing, educational institutions regarding the skill demands in local labour markets, and adult individuals regarding the future skills needed to ensure their continued employability. At the disaggregated level the person’s demands - ability fit refers to a wide body of knowledge in HRM. Increasing segments of the demand side and the supply side of the labour market are digitized, ranging from job sites and cv’s at Facebook and Linkedin to extensive databases with job descriptions and related skills demands. These developments have led to Knowledge Management and educational challenges in these matching processes. Specifically, EDUWORKS will focus on matching processes at three levels and on one overarching topic: • Individual level fit between job demands - persons’ abilities • Meso-level employers’ demands for occupational skills versus occupational dynamics • European and national level labour supply and demand matches and mismatches • Knowledge Management for supply and demand matches

The IDP BRIDGES will educate a new generation of plant scientists who are professionally competent in plant science and political policy. Our graduates will make an impact on the ability of the EU to respond to its changing needs in plant production, sustainable land use, agricultural developments and ecosystem services and conversation. IDP BRIDGES addresses the lack of trained scientists who are able to effectively contribute to political solutions by knowing how and when to integrate scientific evidence. We aim to educate plant scientists that are supra-disciplinary in mind, multidisciplinary in skills, and rigorous in their scientific excellence. They will be tomorrows professional scientists who understand the political and social context of their work. We will do this by involving 14 Early-Stage Researchers in an innovative research training programme at the interface science-policy and science-innovation. Tandem PhD research project jointly supervised and secondments to intersectorial associated partners based in 5 EU Member States and 8 Third Countries will ensure exposure to different working environments and cultures. IDP BRIDGES will build upon an existing doctoral programme managed by the Zurich-Basel Plant Science Center, a competence center of three Swiss universities. IDP BRIDGES will bring together 10 departments of 7 international universities, 12 associated partners of the socio-economic sector and 3 from industry. Additionally IDP BRIDGES will provide training in entrepreneurship skills and challenge the commercial exploitation of plant science research by offering an Idea Lab and a Green Business Workshop. An international and intersectorial cohort of trainers and mentors will provide the framework for advanced education and mentoring schemes. Different kinds of networking events and online platforms (Massive Open Online Course) will facilitate the exchange of knowledge and best practice and create new partnerships.

The European photovoltaics PV market still represents the predominant share of worldwide installations and electricity generated from PV is becoming increasingly competitive, with an average levelized cost of energy (LCOE) estimated to be between 0.10–0.16 €/kWh in 2011 . This constant reduction of LCOE means that the European industry can only regain its competitiveness with (i) a concomitant reduction of production and investment costs (current net price level ~0.8–1.0 €/Wp today) in Europe in order to face the strong price competition of emerging countries (China and Taiwan), (ii) investment in novel “advanced” industrial processes allowing for high efficiencies and low-cost device production (iii) the development of high-end tools and processes which are more difficult to master and duplicate, securing a technology leadership. These conditions are necessary to ensure sustainable PV technology production in Europe and the construction of a robust European PV industry able to beat international competition. However, ultra-high-efficiency PV devices require manufacturing processes that are increasingly complex, which results in an increase in the related investment and fabrication costs. Given that the market still requires a reduction of the technology price, we are left with a paradox, and we must find ways to produce high-efficiency devices with competitive industrial processes. The concept proposed by the HERCULES project is to develop innovative n-type monocrystalline c-Si device structures based on back-contact solar cells with alternative junction formation, as well as related structures including hybrid concepts (homo-heterojunction). These concepts are the most promising technologies to reach ultra-high efficiencies with industrially relevant processes. The HERCULES strategy is to transfer the developed processes to the industrial scale by considering all major cost drivers of the entire manufacturing process chain of modules.

The FLUIDGLASS project develops a new and innovative concept for multifunctional solar thermal glass façades systems. The FLUIDGLASS approach turns passive glass façades into active transparent solar collectors while at the same time controlling the energy flow through the building envelope. FLUIDGLASS unites four key functionalities in one integrated system: The system firstly acts as a fully transparent solar thermal collector, which enables harvesting of solar energy even in buildings with large glass share. It secondly acts as transparent insulation layer and thirdly controls the solar radiation transmission and inner glass surface temperature thus increasing the thermal user comfort and reducing the demand for heating, cooling and lighting. At the same time FLUIDGLASS substitutes conventional HVAC components such as cooling and heating panels. Replacing four different systems by one, FLUIDGLASS brings a significant cost advantage compared to existing solutions.. FLUIDGLASS increases the thermal performance of the whole building resulting in energy savings potential of 50%-70% for retrofitting and 20%-30% for new low energy buildings while the comfort for the user is significantly improved at the same time. Compared to state-of-the-art solar collectors FLUIDGLASS has the elegant but neutral aesthetics of clear glass. This allows full design freedom for the architect in new built applications and enables retrofits that do not destroy the original look of an existing building. The FLUIDGLASS system will be validated in different climate conditions. The consortium brings together partners experienced in glass architecture, building simulation and energy management but also in experimental testing, HVAC systems, manufacturing of glazing units and construction of façades. It is very well balanced between RTD and industrial sectors covering the whole innovation value chain of the future building skin and gives an important role to participating SMEs.
