Projects

4D PICTURE

Design-based Data-Driven Decision-support Tools: Producing Improved Cancer Outcomes Through User-Centred Research

The EU funded 4D PICTURE project will continue the development of the Metro Mapping methodology to redesign care paths, including novel DSTs. Innovative algorithms and AI-based models incorporating patient experiences and preferences will facilitate treatment decision-making.The objective is to develop data driven DSTs for patients with breast cancer, prostate cancer and melanoma. The novel DSTs will be evaluated to ensure their ability to address medical, social and ethical issues.

Advanced optical and microwave techniques applied to snowpack characterization. Hydrological and climatic applications

Advanced radar techniques for real-time, non-contact measurement of water flow in open channels and rivers

Cryo-CMOS interface design methodology for quantum computing applications

FRONTHAUL6G

Towards next-generation, high-bandwidth 6G fronthauls

GREENS

A Training Programme on 5R's implementation in the design, manufacturing and application of micro and nanorobotic platforms

To implement for the first time the 5R (Reduce, Recycle, Rethink, Repair, and Reuse) principle from the manufacturing to the final implementation and removal of nano/micro robotic platforms

MANUREFINERY

Smart modular mobile biorefining of manure to zero-waste maximising resource and nutrient recovery for feed and fertiliser bioingredients in rural areas

Converting livestock manure into products for feed and fertilisers

METASTRA

COMPUTER-AIDED EFFECTIVE FRACTURE RISK STRATIFICATION OF PATIENTS WITH VERTEBRAL METASTASES FOR PERSONALISED TREATMENT THROUGH ROBUST COMPUTATIONAL MODELS VALIDATED IN CLINICAL SETTINGS

METASTRA will propose new guidelines for the stratification and management of metastatic patients. METASTRA approach is expected to cut the uncertain diagnoses from the current 60% down to 20% of cases. This will reduce patient suffering, and allow cutting expenditure by 2.4B€/year.

RESCUER

Resilient Solutions for Coastal, Urban, Estuarine and Riverine Environments

The Doctoral Network (DN) “RESCUER“ will focus on the training of young researchers (Fellows) in the general area of coastal oceanography, hydraulic and coastal engineering, applied mathematics, and scientific computation.
