In the fields of stroke and PE care, current thrombectomy tools rely on outward radial forces against the vessel wall to disrupt and retrieve clots limiting treatment of distal occlusions and potentially leaving clot fragments behind. Generating an attachment force that is attractive by nature with the eTrieve™ system developed by Magneto allows to attract clot with minimal interaction with the vessel wall, enabling access to distal locations and minimizing fragmentation. The eTrieve™ system developed by Magneto is the first and only system that utilizes the electric properties of blood clots in order to facilitate their removal. The urgent need to invest in modern technologies for European healthcare systems is underscored by the pressing issues of stroke and pulmonary embolism, major causes of death and disability worldwide. With aging being a primary risk factor for stroke and Europe's population aging rapidly, the incidence of these conditions is poised to skyrocket. We founded Magneto in 2016, and target a total addressable market across both PE and stroke indications of €5B (EU+US markets), with a SAM totaling at €1B with device pricing aligned with reimbursement: $3-5k for stroke devices and $10k per procedure for PE. Our team includes experienced MedTech industry veterans, with specific and extensive knowledge in the cardiovascular space, and a talented and creative R&D team constantly driving the company innovation forward. At Magneto, our vision is not just about developing a device; it's about revolutionizing patient care for stroke and PE. Our ambitious goals encompass innovation, patient well-being, accessibility, clinical excellence, sustainability, and collaboration. Through our relentless pursuit of these ambitions, we are poised to leave an indelible mark on the field of thrombectomy technology, saving lives, improving outcomes, and inspiring positive change across the healthcare landscape.

ConScience is driving Europe’s quantum revolution by developing scalable, high-performance quantum processing units (QPUs) to meet the growing demand for reliable and cost-effective quantum hardware. Quantum computing offers transformative potential in industries such as pharmaceuticals, finance, and climate modeling, but current technologies are limited by short coherence times, poor fault tolerance, and high production costs. These challenges restrict the adoption of quantum solutions and hinder Europe’s leadership in this critical sector. To address these barriers, ConScience has developed the Qubit-in-a-Box (QiB) product line, featuring innovative QPUs with industry-leading coherence times, fault-tolerant architectures, and modular designs. Using proprietary nanofabrication techniques, including modified Josephson Junctions and advanced packaging solutions, ConScience delivers devices with superior performance and scalability. Currently at TRL6, ConScience has validated its technology with the QiB0 device, already sold to several research institutions and industrial partners. Through the EIC Accelerator project, ConScience will reach TRL9 in 24 months by enhancing production methods, validating device performance, and piloting QiB7 and QiB17 with early adopters. These advancements will unlock new applications in secure communications, drug discovery, and advanced simulations. The QiB7 and QiB17 devices aim to achieve coherence times exceeding 1ms and integrate quantum error correction capabilities, making them ideal for academic and industrial applications. By democratising access to high-performance quantum hardware, ConScience supports the EU’s goals under the European Chips Act and Quantum Flagship initiative, reinforcing Europe’s technological sovereignty. This project positions ConScience as a leader in quantum innovation, delivering scalable and reliable solutions to drive societal impact and economic growth.

The general goal of the proposed research is to gain a deeper understanding of group properties which are reflected by the theory of random walks. Another goal is to reveal further connections between this theory with the rigidity phenomenon. The main mathematical fields appearing in this research plan are measurable and topological group actions (Ergodic Theory and Topological Dynamics), and group actions on C*-algebras. One of the main objectives is developing a theory towards solving a specific case of Connes’ Rigidity Conjecture, formulated for C*-algebras. Namely, differentiating reduced C*-algebras of irreducible lattices of different ranks. The suggested approach is inspired by a well-known rigidity result of Furstenberg. This involves studying the relationship between measurable and topological boundaries, as well as their C*- and von Neumann algebraic counterparts. Related to this relationship, it is also conjectured that the existence of uniquely ergodic models for probability measure preserving actions in a much wider setup than is currently known. Another goal is to develop a theory of automorphism groups of Markov chains. Two potential applications are discussed: the first is developing new techniques for realizing the Furstenberg-Poisson boundary, and the second, is to relate the boundaries of groups, which are measure equivalent. An additional line of research suggests new systematic studies of operator algebras related to groups. This direction is inspired by the fruitful theme in Geometric Group Theory, studying the space of all subgroups, of a given group. The dynamics on the space of subalgebras is suggested to provide a new set of invariants attributed to groups, unitary representations, and group actions. A subalgebra rigidity phenomenon is conjectured to hold for higher rank groups, and a strategy based on Boundary Theory is being presented. This direction opens many new horizons to the study of groups’ operator algebras.

Median survival for people that are diagnosed with glioblastoma (GBM) is only 15 months. Chemoradiotherapy and targeted therapies still fail to combat peritumoral relapse after tumour removal. Preventing peritumoral brain invasion is the main target to cure GBM. Our project aims to validate a proof-of concept for a new medical device (MD) ‘GBM Neuro Snooper’ in GBM animal models, a required step before initiating a clinical trial (Technology Readiness Level from 2/3 to 4). This MD will allow to define an in-situ electrophysiology profile of patients with GBM, after the tumor resection, to access a new mechanistic understanding in the brain tumour field as well as, new strategies for patient stratification and treatment. Already existing MDs with electrode wires are either very stiff or with a millimetric dimension. The ERC work will lead to a first generic, miniaturised prototype implant with moderate invasiveness and which design was validated in connection with neurosurgeons for the GBM application, validation of its Freedom to Operate in the context of continuous IP landscaping and the creation of an exploitation plan. In a long-term perspective, it will help characterise hyperexcitability in brain diseases such as tumors, but also epilepsy or the Alzheimer Disease. We will also investigate the effect of stimulation of the peritumoral tissue and the correlation with the recorded signals as a new electro-theragnostic strategy. We will address the ethics and social dimension of using such a MD and our exploitation plan will include the protection of intellectual property, business strategy and the preparation of a clinical trial after project completion. The project will be performed by a dedicated team that includes significant expertise in technical development, preclinical validation of devices, surgery, and knowledge transfer.

In an era of digital transformation, welfare states are incorporating data tools, ranging from basic e-portals to sophisticated AI-driven systems. While potentially improving service delivery, concerns are being raised about intrusive surveillance, especially among marginalized populations. JUSST seeks to expand on the co-productionist framework to go beyond limited interpretations of data ethics. Its main objective is to provide a comprehensive analysis of sociotechnical systems, examining the interplay between human actors, technology, culture, and institutions. The core focus lies in understanding how sociotechnical imaginaries interact with digital tool applications within welfare services and how they affect digitally monitored welfare recipients (DMWR) across different societal structures. It will furthermore look into potential for good uses of data tools and digital technologies. JUSST utilizes a qualitative, international comparative appproach to examine the impact of surveillance on welfare recipients, comparing income support recipients with offenders under electronic monitoring. JUSST aspires innovative theorization by adopting an interdisciplinary approach, integrating insights from Science and Technology Studies (STS), Social Policy Studies, and Sociology of Punishment. Besides its theoretical significance, this project seeks to provide policy recommendations for the good use of data tools within an inclusive social and economic framework that caters towards the needs of all stakeholders involved. The collaboration between the researcher, who has a background in Criminology and Sociology of Punishment, and the Research Centre for Digitalisation of Public Services and Citizenship (CEDIC) at OsloMet University in Norway will facilitate a valuable exchange of expertise, relevant for theory building, developing well-informed policy recommendations and career enhancement.
