Optimized joint analysis of thoracic aortic 3D morphology and blood flow hemodynamics from MRI images – MAGNOLIA
Cardiovascular diseases at the early stages typically include alterations of the aorta, which is the largest artery connected to the heart and carries oxygenated blood towards the whole body. Indeed, each heartbeat generates mechanical stress and elevated pressures on the aortic wall that can be amp
Optimized on-demand ultrafast and broadband light sources using machine learning – OPTIMAL
The generation of coherent light by lasers was one of the most important scientific discoveries of the 20th century. Lasers have revolutionised almost every field of science and paved the way for entirely new applications in industry and technology. Of particular importance is the ultrafast laser, c
Optimizing Water Resources in Coastal Areas using Artificial Intelligence – AI4Water
This project focuses on utilizing Artificial intelligence (AI) optimization and prediction techniques for water management in (1) the Ras Jebel coastal area (RJC) in Tunisia; (2) the Coastal Constantinois and Seybouse basins (CCB&SB) in North-East of Algeria; (3) in the Capitanata coastal irrigation
Optimizing omega-3 supplementation to resolve inflammation in a personalized medicine cardiovascular disease prevention. – OmegaPerMed
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the most common cause of death in Europe and world-wide. Optimizing CVD prevention is therefore of utmost importance, but personalized medicine has not yet reached clinical practice for CVD. Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) are traditionally considered ben
Orientation microscopy and cryo-electron tomography to study glycan-dependent assembly of membrane nanodomains – OMEGA-MEMDO
The existence of membrane nanodomains is accepted but the structural principles according to which proteins and lipids are co-assembled and the mechanisms by which membrane nanodomain construction affords biological outcomes remain poorly explored. At the cell surface, glycans provide a link for
Origami-based structures for multi-modal Robots – OrigaBot
The OrigaBot project aims to develop an innovative mobile robot based on a new family of origami structures for robots with a flexible mechanical structure that is active, reconfigurable and deformable. The OrigaBot will be a multimodal locomotion mobile robot with a reconfigurable structure to roll
Origin of bee oRchIds superGenes And Magic traItS – ORIGAMIS
Orchids in the genus Ophrys have a fascinating pollination strategy (sexual swindling). Their flowers mimic the visual, olfactory and tactile characteristics of female pollinator insects to such an extent that the males of these species are attracted, attempt to mate with the flower, and take pollen
Original Computational Techniques for Optimization of Polymers Using Sustainable SYnthesis – OCTOPUSSY
This project aims at the design and synthesis of novel polymers derived from renewable feedstocks with application as commodity or specialty materials (e.g. flexible sustainable packaging), using a synergetic computational and experimental dialogue. For this purpose, artificial intelligence models b
Oversight and intelligence networks: Who guards the guardians? – GUARDINT
GUARDINT aims to address and redress the gap between increasingly transnational surveillance practices and national oversight mechanisms. Due to the expansion of intelligence networks and digital data collection and sharing, the traditional ways to understand and to practice the control of intellige
PERvasive Service cOmposition – PERSO
Pervasive Computing (PerCom) envisions the unobtrusive diffusion of computing and networking resources in physical environments, enabling users to access information and computation anywhere and at anytime, in a user-centric way. Ambient Intelligence (AmI) is a strategic domain for the EC that compl
