3D printing of cell laden biomimetic materials and biomolecules for joint regeneration

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a serious disease of the joints affecting nearly 10% of the population worldwide. Realising an efficacious therapeutic solution for treating OA remains one of the greatest challenges in the field of orthopaedic medicine. This proposal envisions a future where 3D bioprinting systems located in hospitals will provide ‘off-the-shelf’, patient-specific biological implants to treat diseases such as OA. To realise this vision, this project will use 3D bioprinting to generate anatomically accurate, biomimetic constructs that can be used to regenerate both the cartilage and bone in a diseased joint. The first aim of this proposal is to print a mesenchymal stem cell laden biomaterial that is both immediately load bearing and can facilitate the regeneration of articular cartilage in vivo, such that the bioprinted construct will not require in vitro maturation prior to implantation. Mechanical function will be realised by integrating an interpenetrating network hydrogel into a 3D printed polymeric scaffold, while chondro-inductivity will be enhanced by the spatially-defined incorporation of cartilage extracellular matrix components and chondrogenic growth factors into the bioprinted construct. The second aim of the proposal is to use 3D bioprinting to create a cell-free, composite construct to facilitate regeneration of the bony region of a large osteochondral defect, where vascularization will be accelerated by immobilizing spatial gradients of vascular endothelial growth factor into the implant. The third aim of the proposal is to scale-up the proposed 3D bioprinted construct to enable whole joint regeneration. Finite element modelling will be used determine the optimal structural characteristics of the scaled-up implant for it to fulfil its required mechanical function. If successful, such an implant would form the basis of a truly transformative therapy for treating degenerative joint disease.
On the distinction between perceived &amp; predicted depth in S3D films

A primary concern when making stereoscopic 3D (S3D) movies is to promote an effective and comfortable S3D experience for the audience when displayed on the screen. The amount of depth produced on-screen can be controlled using a variety of parameters. Many of these are lighting related such as lighting architecture and technology. Others are optical or positional and thus have a geometrical effect including camera interaxial distance, camera convergence, lens properties, viewing distance and angle, screen/projector properties and viewer anatomy (interocular distance). The amount of estimated depth from disparity alone can be precisely predicted from simple trigonometry; however, perceived depth from disparity in complex scenes is difficult to evaluate and most likely different from the predicted depth based on geometry. This discrepancy is mediated by perceptual and cognitive factors, including resolution of the combination/conflict of pictorial, motion and binocular depth cues. This paper will review geometric predictions of depth from disparity and present the results of experiments which assess perceived S3D depth and the effect of the complexity of scene content.
Development of ecosystem-based risk governance concepts with respect to natural hazards and climate impacts – from ecosystem-based solutions to integrated risk assessment

In natural hazard and risk reduction worldwide, but especially in the Alpine Space (AS), forests and mountain ecosystems are outstandingly important, and are increasingly considered on-par with technical measures or other prevention concepts. Forests efficiently protect against avalanches, torrents, landslides or rock-fall. However, so far, few strategies or policy concepts have been developed, on how to integrate forests and ecosystem services in risk governance and balance the numerous interests, demands and costs. Upcoming challenges in the AS are dramatic: Limitation of settlement space, increasing costs for the protection of settlements, more conflicts by increasing demands and expectations or critical development of economies like ‘monoculture tourism’. Without an adequate, territorially specific implementation of mountain ecosystems services (incl. forests) in a risk mitigation strategy, sustainable development in the AS will be hard to achieve. Thus, the overarching goal of GreenRisk4ALPs (GR4A) is the DEVELOPMENT OF ECOSYSTEM-BASED CONCEPTS TO SUPPORT RISK GOVERNANCE WITH RESPECT TO NATURAL HAZARDS AND CLIMATE IMPACTS. GR4A brings the forest into affordable and long-term-oriented risk mgmt. by balancing green, technical and preventive risk strategies. However, GR4A also helps to overcome conflicts and resistances: all relevant actors are involved and provided with science-based communication support.GR4A also offers transalpine solutions – for municipalities as well as governance institutions, by delivering new tools for practitioners and new recommendations for ecosystem-based risk mgmt. The GR4A consortium integrates researchers, practitioners and managers from the AS. The project’s foundation are five pilot action regions (PAR) from SLO/ITA/FRA/GER/AUT, which are fully involved. GR4A directly supports sustainability and life quality of the AS, by balanced long-term solutions.
Disruptive on-line stylist engine

STILAVIA is a new disruptive e-commerce platform that intends to provide on-line fashion shoppers with a totally new buying experience. Using our newly developed proprietary set of algorithms users will receive styling recommendations of specific clothing items based on their particular aspirations (to look thinner or taller; to emphasise breasts, shoulders, hips; to match the colour of clothing with the colour of the eyes or hair). This approach goes far beyond the usual on-line shopping procedure, which merely involves performing filtered searches in a previously selected retailer or offer aggregator, making the selection of the desired item based on pictures and written descriptions, and hoping that the size chosen will indeed fit. The consequence is that around 40% of purchases have some degree of dissatisfaction, either because the size was not correct or, mostly, because the piece of clothing does not meet the user expectations once worn. As a result 25% of the purchases are returned, with the retailer assuming the delivery expenses.
The recommended items will be chosen among those on the databases provided by our strategic partners, major on-line retailers such as Zalando and Yoox, with whom we already signed B2B agreements. Our platform will help them to receive new costumers that will make satisfactory and definitive purchases, whereas we will receive a commission for each one of these transactions.
In this SME Instrument Phase 1 we will launch a beta version of the platform in Spain (June 2015), and we will test it and improve it using the feedback of 300 users. In parallel, we will investigate the European market in order to adjust the algorithms to country-specific requirements, and with an eventual Phase 2 (which will include marketing activities) we will get ready for a global launch in 2017.
Delayed Interval Delivery of a Second Twin after the Preterm Labor of the First One in Twin Pregnancies: Delayed Delivery in Twin Pregnancies

A diamnionic dichorionic twin pregnant women (due to in vitro fertilization) admitted to emergency department at the 21st week of gestation because of regular contractions. By gynecological examination, we observed 8 cm dilated cervix with 80% effacement. Amniotic membrane was also bulging through the cervix. After evaluation delivery of the presenting fetus occurred quickly. The baby’s weight was 610 gr and no heart activity was detected. Placenta of the first fetus expulsed immediately. We decided to retain the second fetus to allow the improvement in the outcome. McDonald cerclage was performed and the patient treated with tocolytics and antibiotics, and she was continuously monitored up to the 28th week of pregnancy. After she was discharged in the 28th week, she was controlled weekly in obstetrics clinic. At the 36th gestational week which was 101 days after the cerclage procedure, 3639 g male fetus was delivered with cesarean section and had an uneventful neonatal course. Delayed-interval delivery is useful and acceptable therapeutic option for the management of the remaining fetus in twin pregnancies even after the expulsion of the placenta. Antibiotic and tocolytic administration with cervical cerclage application can be associated with longer interdelivery interval.
An integrative approach to unravel the ocean's biological carbon pump

The ocean’s biological carbon pump plays a crucial role in storing atmospheric carbon dioxide in the deep ocean, thereby isolating carbon from the atmosphere for decades to centuries. Yet, its capacity to do so is under-constrained and its mechanisms poorly understood. CarbOcean will develop a mechanistic and quantitative understanding of the biological carbon pump using a novel integrative approach that accounts for its two component pumps: (1) the organic carbon pump, which concerns the photosynthetic production of particulate organic carbon, POC, and (2) the carbonate pump, which concerns the production of particulate inorganic carbon, PIC. These pumps have opposite effects on the ocean-atmosphere exchange of carbon dioxide. I will nurture the development of a breakthrough autonomous robotic ocean profiler, uniquely capable of simultaneous observations of PIC and POC fluxes and physicochemical parameters from the well-lit surface ocean through the underlying twilight zone (roughly 100 – 1000 m depth) over a continuum of spatiotemporal scales. The robotic profilers will be deployed in a wide variety of oceanic environments and the collected data will allow investigation of links between the export and sequestration of POC and PIC, examination of pump interconnection, and detection of pump drivers. New parameterizations of carbon flux processes will be developed and implemented in a biogeochemical model. Lastly, the carbon flux data collected will be up-scaled to the global ocean using artificial intelligence approaches, thereby exploiting synergies among various observational platforms, including remote sensing. 
CarbOcean is a strongly interdisciplinary project, connecting fundamental and applied optical oceanography with biogeochemistry, carbonate chemistry, advanced statistics, and technological development that will allow a quantum leap in understanding the ocean’s biological carbon pump.

CHAIN TENSIONING IN A HYBRID DRIVE MODULE

A method of performing regular maintenance in a hybrid drive module, comprising a housing (170) enclosing a continuous member drive (120) comprising a chain or a belt (126) connecting an electrical motor (110) with a crank shaft (22) of an associated internal combustion engine (20) via at least one coupling (130, 140), said electrical motor (110) being fastened with respect to the crank shaft (22) via fastening elements (111) wherein said method comprises: unfastening the electric motor (110) from said motor's (110) fastening elements (111); positioning the electric motor (110) such that the crankshaft (22) is a distance (d) from the electric motor (110) and such that tension in the chain or belt (126) is at or above a pre-specified level; and re-fastening fastening elements (111) such that the electric motor (110) is maintained at the distance (d) from the crankshaft (22).
Nested sampling, statistical physics and the Potts model

Abstract We present a systematic study of the nested sampling algorithm based on the example of the Potts model. This model, which exhibits a first order phase transition for q > 4 , exemplifies a generic numerical challenge in statistical physics: The evaluation of the partition function and thermodynamic observables, which involve high dimensional sums of sharply structured multi-modal density functions. It poses a major challenge to most standard numerical techniques, such as Markov Chain Monte Carlo. In this paper we will demonstrate that nested sampling is particularly suited for such problems and it has a couple of advantages. For calculating the partition function of the Potts model with N sites: a) one run stops after O ( N ) moves, so it takes O ( N 2 ) operations for the run, b) only a single run is required to compute the partition function along with the assignment of confidence intervals, c) the confidence intervals of the logarithmic partition function decrease with 1 / N and d) a single run allows to compute quantities for all temperatures while the autocorrelation time is very small, irrespective of temperature. Thermodynamic expectation values of observables, which are completely determined by the bond configuration in the representation of Fortuin and Kasteleyn, like the Helmholtz free energy, the internal energy as well as the entropy and heat capacity, can be calculated in the same single run needed for the partition function along with their confidence intervals. In contrast, thermodynamic expectation values of magnetic properties like the magnetization and the magnetic susceptibility require sampling the additional spin degree of freedom. Results and performance are studied in detail and compared with those obtained with multi-canonical sampling. Eventually the implications of the findings on a parallel implementation of nested sampling are outlined.

Effect of multi enzyme supplementation on post-weaning performance in crossbred pigs

An experiment was conducted to study the effect of multi-enzyme supplementation on post-weaning performance of crossbred pigs (3–8 months). In this trial, 75% crossbred (Large White Yorkshire x Desi) pigs were fed with diets supplemented with NSPs degrading enzymes at various levels viz., 0 (T1), 500 (T2) and 1000 (T3) g/ton of feed. The pigs in T3 had significantly (P<0.05) higher 240-day body weight and average daily weight gain over the control. The feed intake was increased with the proportion of increase in level of enzyme addition. Feed efficiency was observed better 7.90 and 5.39% respectively in pigs fed diets supplemented with 500 and 1000 g enzyme/ton of feed than control. The feed cost per kg weight gain was lower in enzyme supplemented groups than control. The decrese was 9.03 and 4.62 per cent in T2 and T3 compared to control. The supplementation of NSPs degrading enzyme @ 500 g/ton of feed was found effective in terms of improving weight gain, feed efficiency and feed cost per kg weight gain.
Human motivation: evolutionary foundations and their implications for economics

Economics provides decision-makers with powerful tools to analyse a wide range of issues. The methodological unity of the discipline and its quest for a general understanding of market as well as non-market interactions have given the discipline great influence on policy. A core component of economics is its assumption that individuals act as if they each had some goal function that they seek to maximise, under the constraints they face and the information they have.
Despite significant advances in behavioural economics, there still is no consensus as to whether and why certain preferences are more likely than others. Further progress could be made if the factors that shape human motivation in the first place were understood. The aim of this project is to produce novel insights about such factors, by establishing evolutionary foundations of human motivation.The project's scope is ambitious. First, it will study two large classes of interactions: strategic interactions, and interactions within the realm of the family. Second, to obtain both depth and breadth of insights, it will consist of four different, but inter-related, components (three theoretical and one empirical), the ultimate goal being to significantly enhance our overall understanding of the factors that shape human motivation.
The methodology is ground-breaking in that it is strongly interdisciplinary. Parts of the body of knowledge built by biologists and evolutionary anthropologists in the past decades will be combined with state-of-the-art economics to produce insights that cannot be obtained within any single discipline. Focus will nonetheless be on addressing issues of importance for economists.The proposed research builds on extensive work done by the PI in the past decade. It will benefit from the years that the PI has invested in understanding the biology and the evolutionary anthropology literatures, and in contributing towards building an interdisciplinary research ecosystem in Toulouse, France

Enabling nanomedicine translation

ENATRANS’ main objective is to network and support SMEs in translation of nanomedicine in Europe by providing a one-stop-shop service to interact and share information, experience and advice with up-to-date information and interactive tools, but also enabling personal contacts.
To be successful SMEs need to understand the requirements of the complex ecosystem made up of regulatory and reimbursement agencies, as well as the requirements of large industrial companies and clinical needs. ENATRANS will gather and provide information about approval processes, regulatory authorities and agencies, clinical and market data, and specific nanomedicine value chain analysis, relevant SME support projects and organisations. ENATRANS will convert this critical information in dedicated learning programs and tools dedicated to translation of nanomedicine.  
ENATRANS aims at implementing the concept of a Translation Advisory Board (TAB) as central element of the ETPN White Paper. A TAB will be set-up with senior experienced translation experts to guide R&D teams (in SMEs and research institutes) along the translation process to successfully make it to clinical trials and later to the market.
Promising projects identified and supported by the TAB need access to clinical centers for first studies in patients, which are able to handle the specificity of new nanotechnology based therapeutics. In addition, financial resources are needed to go pass the regulatory and scale-up processes, which often require funding from investors and/or large companies. ENATRANS will build bridges to clinical trial centers, investors and large companies.
Promising projects need guidance to successfully master privileged contacts with the medical, the business or the investment community. ENATRANS will deliver special coaching sessions prior to showcasing of promising projects.
Partners in ENATRANS are VDI/VDE-IT, Nanobiotix, CEA, bioanalytik-muenster, Tel Aviv University, Fondazione Don Gnocchi, TecMinho.
Chemical mutagenesis: a powerful tool for the creation of a library of nanobodies

Finding a non-aggressive treatment against Cancer is one of the most important challenges that medicine has nowadays. Immunotherapy has emerged as one of the best options to overcome the current problems of chemotherapy. By the use of monoclonal antibodies (mAb), immunotherapy is able to block regulatory checkpoints and, therefore, the immune response against tumoral cells could be modulated. 
Trastuzumab, pembrolizumab and nivolumab are some of the mAb approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for their use against several cancers. Trastuzumab recognizes the overexpressed protein HER2 in breast cancer, whereas the pembrolizumab and the nivolumab recognize the Programmed Cell Death-1 (PD-1) receptor and are used in several cancers such as refractory melanoma.
However, there are reported important issues concerning cancer resistance to these mAb, thus, modifying their characteristics became necessary. Unlike it happens with small molecules, there are several limitations to functionalize an antibody to improve its characteristics. In this context, chemical mutagenesis turns into a powerful tool because it allows the modification of an antibody directly with highly specific chemical reactions, and achieve changes onto its structure that would not be possible by using other techniques such as protein engineering and genetic encoding.
In this proposal I envision the use of nanobodies able to recognize HER-2 protein and PD-1 receptor in order to improve their affinity to their targets by chemical mutagenesis via alanyl radical. The success of this project would provide solutions to the cancer resistance to current immunotherapy.
