‘Rocking in the Midwest: Transmitting and Performing Social Class in Rock Music Education’ is an innovative and timely project. It seeks to examine the ways in which ideals and markers of social class are transmitted, negotiated and performed within a unique setting – that of a rock music school in the US Midwest. By examining a traditionally white working-class and often patriarchal musical genre within a decidedly middle-class context – a private school, whose costs and institutional structure present a barrier to access for lower-income students – it seeks to shine a light on the shifting production of class within a region whose working-class-ness has at times been considered both problematic and emblematic of conflicted class, race and gender relations in the post-industrial United States. This research understands music education and performance as a unique site of the construction and negotiation of class consciousness and identities. It will consider how class-coded meanings and narratives are attached to visual and sonic symbols within rock education and performance. These symbols include musical instruments, sounds, language, gestures and ideals of musicianship and performance. It will examine how these symbols are transmitted, embodied and performed within the context of the school’s rehearsals, lessons and showcase performances, with a particular eye to the role of the gendered body in processes of teaching, learning, listening and music-making. This project takes a unique and innovative approach, marrying anthropological and ethnomusicological methods and modes of investigation with theoretical and analytical perspectives from cultural sociology and gesture studies, drawing as well on existing knowledge and research within music education, sociology of music and the emerging field of popular music education, in order to inform a truly interdisciplinary interrogation of social class and music education in the twenty-first century American Midwest.

Blockchain and DLTs have a limitless potential for use cases across all industries. They streamline business processes and offers a great potential for reducing costs and complexity, offering high level of transparency and trustworthiness. Despite of the potential benefits, their uptake is low, even more among the SMEs, making the transition to DLTs slow and arduous due to: -Sectors in which DLTs make sense, besides fintech, are those in which existing traditional SMEs do not have enough knowledge on how DLTs work nor their potential uptake. -Traditional SMEs (and stakeholders in general) need to be sensitized to uptake the technology in their verticals. Lack of knowledge makes them reluctant to technological changes. -A regulatory framework should foster the uptake and prevent from fraudulent actions. Uncertain regulation limits companies’ scope of action and imply a risk for their growth. To overcome it, BLOCKCHERS’ concept aims at: -funding up to 30 tech-based SMEs in 2 open calls, providing real use cases implementation engaging at least 30 traditional SMEs (end users uptaking DLTs with a technology provider) -providing training, team work sessions and community building activities, to achieve a better understanding and acceptance of DLTs among SMEs. -mapping & monitoring relevant initiatives to build a community to solve the information gap between regulators and DLT developers, providing recommendations for policy action as a way to create a smart regulation in the EU. 4 top-skilled organisations gather to address these challenges: ZABALA, coordinator and expert on cascade-funding and innovation services provision to SMEs EU-wide. Innomine, expert on acceleration and piloting/use cases in the CEE market for the DIHs. Frankfurt School Blockchain Center (FSBC), recognized expert on providing DLTs training and organizing major events on blockchain. Alastria, the first public-permissioned Spanish DLT network promoted by corporations, available for BLOCKCHERS.

The current EV charging landscape in Europe is fragmented with an evident lack of interoperability between EV charging point operators/users. Cross border mobility and long distance travel is difficult for EV drivers. Place to Plug offers a collaborative platform integrated with blockchain that aims to reach the maximum number of EV users and operators, bringing together a fragmented network of public charging points and expanding it by also offering private charging points. In this way we will create a solid network to ensure sufficient energy supply for every EV user, reducing range anxiety. Place to Plug has created the only platform whose model is collaborative, tending to add the highest number of charging points possible, independent of type (public/private sector). The platform employ blockchain and virtual currency for EV drivers to pay charging sessions in private charging points thus circumventing restrictions on the sale of energy between private individuals and automating processes via smart contracts. The platform, which integrate all charging points from diverse operators, allows users to book and activate charge points using the mobile app or the website. Other platforms require a card (or do not offer a blockchain platform) which varies depending on the charging point’s operator. Other competitive advantages include route planning features based on the EV’s model and available charging points and a smart and 100% proprietary charging station with unique features. EV sales are on the rise and will represent 15-18% of vehicle sales in 2020 and 30-50% in 2030. We can expect the European EV stock to grow from a size of 1,250,000 in 2018 to ~8 m EV stock in 2022. Taking into account an annual revenue of €24 per each user (B2C) and from €48 to €450 per each control center subscription (B2B), our business model is able to generate an expected service obtainable market (SOM)/revenues of €9.1 m in 2023.

The aim of TUMLA is to provide the experienced fellow Dr. Marie Gueguen, expert in philosophy of science, additional training, skills and knowledge in the field of the philosophy of astrochemistry and model evaluation at UR1 (University of Rennes 1, France) and, through a secondment, in uncertainty management procedures in astrochemistry at the Astrophysics Laboratory of Bordeaux (LAB). This will consolidate her scientific expertise and maturity with the goal of holding a permanent academic position in France. TUMLA proposes a philosophical account of model evaluation in context of high uncertainties. The research aims to conduct an unprecedented study of the methods developed by astrochemists to assess the reliability of astrochemical models, aiming at computing the abundance of molecules in the interstellar medium or in planetary atmosphere as a function of time, despite the fact that the models and the observations against which they must be validated are highly uncertain. These uncertainties, the multiplicity of tasks that models must fill, their different phases of development—from young models that need improvement to mature ones, ready to get confronted to observations—, the strong interdisciplinarity of the field make astrochemistry unique in terms of the challenges that astrochemists must face in evaluating the accuracy of their models. Such an exceptional epistemic situation represents a huge opportunity for philosophers both to refine their understanding of model evaluation and to contribute to developing new methods for assessing the adequacy of a model. Philosophers have not addressed the epistemic challenges generated by uncertainties in science other than climate science. Considering other sciences such as astrochemistry could considerably help broaden their perspective on this topic. The aim of TUMLA is to fill this gap, such as to contribute to an overall philosophical account of model evaluation based on the contemporary practice of scientists.

By exploring the intersection between disability and childhood issues from a diachronic perspective, this project aims to demonstrate how disability gradually became, between the 1960s and 1980s, a key global issue that must be taken into account in any health and advocacy perspective targeting children. In order to respond to this general objective and thus fill a historical silence, the project studies the Centre international de l'enfance - CIE’s consideration of the needs of children with disabilities by identifying its role and measuring its influence within transnational networks. Created in 1949 by the French paediatrician Robert Debré, the CIE emerged as a major player in the transnational space of advocating for children, playing a complementary role to UNICEF. This project addresses important research gaps by studying the little-known and essential contribution of the Centre international de l'enfance to the development of the North Atlantic modern approach to the rehabilitation of people with disabilities. It fills major gaps in the historiography of children with disabilities in Africa and on the role and exchange of knowledge between CIE experts and local professionals in a de/postcolonial perspective. Through its interdisciplinary research focus and theoretical framework, this project makes an unprecedented contribution to a field of multidisciplinary studies that is still largely unexplored and in full emergence: Francophone studies on disability. Moreover, it aims to document the past of disabled children who have remained largely forgotten and invisible. Revealing the past of disabled children, this research addresses crucial and current questions on care, health issues, social policies for vulnerable populations. Finally, this pioneering project will discuss ethical and delicate issues about discrimination, exclusion or segregation, thus contributing to shape current debates on inclusion of disabled children in European society.

This research seeks to reconstruct personal experiences of poverty and socio-economic vulnerability at the family level ̶ focusing particularly on women and girls ̶ in classical and post-classical Athens (5th -3rd cs. BCE). The aim is thus to provide the first systematic, contextualised and holistic view of the structural and cultural nature of these interrelated phenomena for the Greek world and to examine their impact on the lived experience of the women and girls of that time. The achievement of this general aim will involve approaching poverty and vulnerability in the aforementioned framework from a multidisciplinary and dynamic view, considering diverse historiographic approaches and postulates, different type of ancient sources, as well as the incorporation of sociological and anthropological methods into historical research. This mixed and innovative insight will not only permit to set a working definition of those phenomena in ancient Athens, but also to identify and analyse the main factors leading up to situations of vulnerability and/or poverty in this period, as well as the resources and strategies available to or developed by the most vulnerable citizens to face their situation and the possible changes over time. The in-depth analysis of these questions will highlight the importance of understanding poverty and poverty-related vulnerability as a socially and culturally constructed categories and, consequently, how the study of these phenomena can contribute to better understand 5th -3rd cs. BCE Athenian society, but also present time. Addressing how poverty and socio-economic vulnerability have been experienced by different people differently ̶ especially by children and women ̶ in classical and post-classical Athens, while providing us with a more complete picture of Athenian society, may also enable us to recognise trends and responses that are timeless, thus helping to better understand our current world.

SELDOM aims to generate the scientific understanding needed to design area-selective deposition approaches for transition metal dichalcogenides (MX2), a class of inorganic 2D materials that recently attracts great interest for nano-electronic applications. We will investigate the substrate dependence and nucleation mechanisms of MX2 Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) and Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD). This substrate dependence will be exploited to attain selectivity. Finally, the findings can directly be applied to demonstrate selective deposition of an MX2A/MX2B hetero-stack, a key component for the future development of Tunnel Field effect transistor (TFET). As one of the largest independent research centers in the field of nanotechnology and electronics, imec will provide excellent infrastructure and expertise in semiconductor technology. Two cleanrooms, the device production line, and numerous thin film deposition and characterization techniques are available to conduct the research. The SELDOM project will combine the experience of Prof. A. Delabie who has an extensive track-record in thin film research and semiconductor processing and the knowledge of Dr. Y. Tomczak in surface reaction mechanisms of ALD. The candidate will apply his expertise to explore a new class of materials, the 2D materials. He will broaden his existing expertize on deposition and characterization to 2D materials and the substrate dependence and nucleation mechanisms of thin film deposition techniques. He will apply his extended insight in surface chemistry to design novel selective deposition processes. He will work in a multidisciplinary team of physicists, chemists, process and electrical engineers and develop his personal skills by undertaking project management and coaching of students. This project and training activities will enhance the career prospect of the candidate by establishing contacts with the semiconductor community while conducting industrially relevant research.

The most recent advancing trend that is foreseen to shape more dramatically the new way of doing agriculture in Europe is precision agriculture (PA). This new management approach integrates digital solutions into agricultural processes with the aim of monitoring and optimizing agricultural production. The global PA market is estimated to exceed 8.50 bn. Euro by 2023 from 4.43 bn Euro from 2018 with a CAGR of 13.38%. The major drivers for the PA market include increasing strain on the global food supply owing to increasing population, substantial cost savings associated with PA techniques, and government initiatives to adopt modern agricultural techniques. It is gaining tremendous popularity among farmers worldwide due to the increasing need for optimum crop production with limited available resources. Further, the changing weather patterns due to increasing global warming have impelled the adoption of advanced farming technologies to enhance farm productivity and crop yield. To fulfil these needs and requirements and tap into the constantly growing PA global market, Syswin Solutions Ltd, a Romanian high-tech SME with advanced knowledge and experience in IoT technologies and solutions, created SysAgria - a real-time land monitoring system of multiple parameters simultaneously, adaptable to all types of crops, scalable for different agricultural areas and accessible for all types of farms (including small and medium) due to a lower market price. Unlike current competitive solutions on the market, SysAgria not only monitors and processes data on multiple parameters, but it can also integrate the collected data into expert system databases that allow for accurate predicted values, based on identified patterns, in the case of pests, damages or weed pressures. This approach helps using the collected data to recommend tailored actions for each situation encountered in the field.

RI-URBANS aims to demonstrate how Service Tools (STs) from atmospheric Research Infrastructures (RIs) can be adapted and enhanced to better address the challenges and societal needs concerning air quality (AQ) in European cities and industrial hotspots. RI-URBANS responds to urgent needs to substantially reduce air pollution across EU by providing enhanced AQ observations in support of advanced AQ policy assessment. We develop and enhance synergies between AQ Monitoring Networks (AQMNs) and RIs in the atmospheric domain and combine advanced science knowledge and innovative technologies to develop pilot STs. These will enhance the AQMNs capacity to evaluate, predict and support policies for abating urban air pollution. RI-URBANS deploys tools and information systems in the hands of citizens and communities to support decision-making by AQ managers and regulators. The focus is on ambient nanoparticles and atmospheric particulate matter, their sizes, constituents, source contributions and gaseous precursors. RI-URBANS will evaluate novel AQ parameters, source contributions, and their associated health effects to demonstrate the European added value of implementing such STs. The project builds on existing initiatives for advanced research-driven AQ observations at supersites from European cities to provide the innovative AQ STs. Five implemented pilots in 9 cities will demonstrate the ability to integrate complementary STs in AQMNs and data management using FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Re-usable) principles. RI-URBANS will address all aspects of sustainability, including efficient curation, preservation and provision of access to data, training and capacity building, and how the use of tools will be secured in the future. Finally, upscaling and sustainability will be provided to the offered AQMNs-RIs interoperable services, using advanced instrumentation, modelling, source apportionment, integrated citizens observatories and mobile measurements.
