This research project is the first comprehensive interdisciplinary study into the so far unrecognised interplay between two major social trends of the post-war period: the upward trend in income inequality, and the increase of owner-occupation. Using a comparative perspective, the project aims at constructing a unified account by means of a systematic analysis of: 1) the ‘driving’ forces of both social trends; 2) the ways in which the upswing in income inequality and the expansion of home-ownership might reinforce or counteract each other and hence lead to a redistribution of social and economic risks; 3) how the statistical relationships between variables at the macro-level play out in diverse institutional settings, looking through a more in-depth historical-comparative lens; 4) how the macro-level relationships between both social trends are negotiated by households and individuals as their housing, labour market and family trajectories unfold; 5) how households and individuals negotiate between their perceptions of the economic benefits and risks associated with home-ownership and the ‘real-life’-opportunities and constraints; and 6) how these norms have changed over time as a result of increased income inequality and/or increasing home-ownership rates. Answers will be provided by means of an innovative multi-method and cross-nationally comparative research design. In four subprojects, I will look at these issues through various lenses, using diverse methods of analysis. I take a longitudinal-historical approach, focussing on the post-war era. My scope ranges from large-scale quantitative analysis of country-level data and of individual retrospective and prospective housing, labour and family trajectories to a comparative in-depth case study of institutional developments in a selection of countries. Different analytical approaches are combined in all proposed subprojects.

Marine life plays a vital role in the Earth’s ecosystem. Wise and judicious management of all relevant resources is of paramount importance to ensure that all forms of marine life remain sustainable. However, efforts in this direction are severely hindered by extreme compartmentalization and heterogeneity at all levels and sectors: the global, national, and local organizations active in the field; the different scientific disciplines involved; the methodologies used to acquire, format and present data; the procedures used to analyze the data; and several others. The main goal of the iMarine project is, thus, to launch an initiative aimed at establishing and operating an e-infrastructure supporting the principles of the Ecosystem Approach to fisheries management and conservation of marine living resources. iMarine has three main objectives: (i) the establishment of an iMarine Board, formed by representatives of international organisations involved in this domain, which will define a sustainability-driven data-centric e-infrastructure governance model and organizational and technological policy recommendations; (ii) the management and operation of this e-Infrastructure offering user-level and application-level services that support the recommended policies and provide relevant functionality to the stakeholders; (iii) the extension, adaptation and deployment of a rich set of software components that implement these services. Instrumental in the activities of iMarine will be the establishment of an active set of collaborations with other international initiatives. The aim will be to reuse and render interoperable existing policies, technologies, and e-infrastructures. By leveraging on these collaborations and by taking advantage of additional funding that these organizations invest in the project, the number of available resources brought into play will be maximized.

The main objective of EuroRIs-Net+ is to provide value-added services, through the Network of NCPs for Research Infrastructures. These services will facilitate transnational cooperation of NCPs, promoting the effective implementation of the RI programme, highlighting opportunities offered by Research Infrastructures - at the European and international level - and their impact on e-science. The Network will develop observatory functions for EC and national Research Infrastructures policies, programmes and initiatives, supported by an efficient dialogue scheme for RI NCPs with the RI ecosystem and a sustainable and comprehensive RI Knowledge Repository. Specifically:• Provision of high level services to our clients (RI scientific communities, industry and public stakeholders) and promotion of best RI NCP practices will be supported through training, peering and helpdesk activities for all RI NCPs, whereas development of systematic partnering activities will increase collaboration among RI stakeholders • Increased visibility of the RI programme to all thematic areas of FP7 will empower and support bottom-up approaches for scientific and user communities in the RI programme, facilitated through cooperation with other NCP networks, with direct benefit on focused scientific communities. Moreover, the network will implement targeted dissemination activities to improve visibility of the project’s services and the RI programme, contributing to the broader use of Research Infrastructures • An interactive platform for communication among the Network, EC, RI policy bodies and RI stakeholders will constructively support policy design, through a dialogue - among RI ecosystem “actors” - which will facilitate diffusion of RI policy bodies’ recommendations to the relevant public authorities and, vice-versa, will permit collection and analysis of integrated data on countries’ participation in Research Infrastructures, to support, wherever possible, their integration within the ERA

This project gathers together, edits and interprets the surviving evidence for the orators of the Roman Republican period whose speeches do not survive in complete form. Its scope includes material which is, or is preserved as if it is, the actual words spoken by Republican orators as well as material about occasions when men spoke, who their audiences were, and the kinds of arguments they used in order to persuade. Cicero is the only Republican orator whose speeches are transmitted in their entirety; the work of his predecessors and rivals is scattered across the surviving texts of antiquity. By making the fragments and testimonia of all Republican orators accessible to the scientific field, this project will transform our understanding of Roman public life, political ideology, and culture. The Project Team, based at the University of Glasgow and supported by an international Advisory Board, will i) prepare the edition of the fragments and testimonia ii) disseminate the findings of the project through a series of colloquia and a major international conference in 2015 iii) engage the scientific community with the project through invited colloquia and conference presentations and organised panels at other relevant conferences and scientific gatherings.

The objective of the eleven participating Research Infrastructures (RIs) is to build up collaborations and to create long-term synergies to facilitate their implementation and enhance their efficiency and attractiveness. The CRISP proposal focuses on four R&D tasks that are of utmost importance for these RIs: (i) Accelerators, (ii) Instruments & Experiments, (iii) Detectors & Data Acquisition, and (iv) Information Technology (IT) & Data Management. Progress in accelerator technology is essential to provide the RIs with the best possible sources of X-rays, ions and neutrons and to tackle the next challenges in nuclear and high-energy physics. Joint developments for novel experimental schemes and their related instrumentation will create new scientific opportunities at the RIs and offer tremendous potential across all fields of natural sciences. New initiatives and approaches are required to cope with the ever-increasing flow of scientific data, and a joint effort to establish the base elements of adequate platforms for the processing, storage and access to data shall be undertaken. The RIs will exchange know-how and combine complementary expertise, ensuring cost-efficient and coherent development plans. The generated synergies will be crucial to respond to the rapidly evolving and mobile scientific user community. It will allow the RIs to strengthen their role in the advancement of knowledge and to stimulate scientific and technological progress, indispensable to address the grand challenges of our society in health, environment, sustainable energy, transport and communication. The proposed activities will be of enormous benefit as well to other large scale facilities in the European Research Area, such as regional or national light and x-ray sources, high-energy and nuclear facilities.

How are European workplaces being transformed? What kinds of new social bargains are emerging across the European Union? How are they being institutionalised? How are new workplace bargains shaped by the broader politics of sectors, regions and national economies? These questions are crucial to the future of the European ‘social model’. The objective of this research programme is to provide answers to these questions, drawing on cross-national survey research on workplace organisation from 1995 to 2010 and selected industrial case studies in the small open European economies of Denmark, Ireland and the Netherlands. These questions also raise crucial theoretical issues. The research reformulates the core elements of the ‘Varieties of Capitalism’ framework that has dominated comparative political economy for the past decade (Hall and Soskice, 2001). It improves our understanding of the diverse organisation of capitalism in Europe, of how that diversity is rooted in politically constructed ‘pathways to the future’, and of how capitalism is constructed out of social and institutional capabilities across Europe.

GLORIA is an innovative citizen-science network of robotic telescopes, which will give free access and research to a virtual community via the Internet. The GLORIA partners will offer access to a growing collection of robotic telescopes via a Web 2.0 environment - 17 telescopes on 4 continents by the project’s end. The GLORIA partners can do this because most of the telescopes are already robotized using the same free/open-source RTS2 software (maintained by GLORIA members), and the web access will be based on Ciclope Astro (also by a GLORIA member), which currently provides the world’s first free-access robotic telescope at Montegancedo Observatory (http://om.fi.upm.es). The Internet experiments will be coordinated by Galaxy Zoo (http://galaxyzoo.org). The challenge will be to involve people from around the world, to maximise their collective intelligence, and to foster their participation in astronomy research both in data analysis and actual observations. The e-Infrastructure will be managed using the method of ‘karma’, proven in most successful web 2.0 sites, whereby those users who participate the most are awarded corresponding observing time. GLORIA will be an e-Science network for the virtual community, demonstrating how networking and open e-Infrastructures can increase the quality of research. During the project, 17 telescopes and 2 experiments will be deployed for these citizen scientists, and a foundation will be built up of documentation, free software, and a community of people will have grown, to maintain and grow GLORIA into the future. Significant dissemination efforts will be made to draw in ordinary people, as well as scholars, to use the network, to learn about astronomy, and to do real science. Currently, GLORIA’s telescopes are individually supported from national funds and as this should continue, the network will not bear the cost of their maintenance. GLORIA can easily survive in the future with minimal national funding or even donations.

The aim of this proposal is the development of TPS for their use in space applications with extreme oxidative environments and high temperature resistance, such as hot parts of space vehicles for orbital entry (ARV), planetary probes and NEO exploration. Previous studies on ARV vehicle have shown that TPS hybrid systems based on ablators integrated with thermo-structural materials are good candidates. Europe has limited research and producers in ablative materials, almost abandoned since ARD missions in the 80´s. Recently the Moon robotics exploration program within ESA demands ablative solutions for thermal protection of planetary probes. As expressed in the work program 2011, the space sector is contributing to the independence, security and prosperity of Europe. In this way, the European Commission has stated that a non-dependent access to the critical space technology is required at Europe level. The development and testing of ablative materials has not been intensively studied in European in the last 10 years, and few producers have been maintaining the capabilities for dual applications. These technical approach is focused on a Hybrid TPS based on ablative/thermostructural assembly and their further testing rather than on the material development. The hybrid systems development will be addressed to the integration of ablative outer-shield and their joining with thermostructural frames based on ceramic composites and will provide an innovative technology solution consistent with European supplier’s capacities. In particular the joining of the different parts will be carried out by the use of advanced bonding technologies. The ablative parts will consist of two kinds of materials (resin based and cork based) while the CMCs will be based on carbon fibres reinforced SiC conventional composites. Relevant on-ground re-entry testing will be carried-out in a “plasma wind tunnel” facility and the results will be contrasted with the envisaged specifications.

The goal of TeamControl is to develop and test a novel account of how we achieve self-control, in part through developing a novel account of the person and exploring its implications for self-control. I take problems of self-control to be those where a person has to resist a current temptation in order to achieve a long-term goal. In the study of self-control, there is a general disciplinary divide. In philosophy, the main focus has been on willpower; in economics/ rational choice theory, the focus has been on external mechanisms by which someone can commit her future self. In TeamControl, my team and I will bring the two approaches together. By introducing the concept of the self as a team over time and providing a novel formal model, we will bring willpower into the rational choice theory framework. Conversely, we will show that mechanisms are of relevance to philosophy, by identifying mechanisms of willpower and investigating their implications for theories of rationality. The project is divided into four inter-related sub-projects: (1) Willpower and the Will: Mechanisms of Self-Control, (2) Selves and Teams: Intra- and Inter-Personal Analogies (3) The Person as a Team Over Time: Implications for Self- Control, (4) The Self, the Will and Psychiatry: Implications of the Theory for Borderline Personality Disorder. Between them, they bring together themes from across philosophy: philosophy of action, philosophy of science, philosophy of mind and psychology, decision theory, philosophy of psychiatry, experimental philosophy. Together, these sub-projects will combine to make an ambitious, inter-disciplinary study of self-control resulting in contributions to a number of academic fields. TeamControl is both multi-disciplinary, engaging with the study of self-control in various fields contemporaneously, and inter-disciplinary, tackling problems in each field by using methodologies from others, and will have trans-disciplinary impact.
