Designing fair and efficient marketplaces

The design of matching markets and auctions has brought economic theory and practice together. But there are many important markets, such as the housing market, that involve goods that are indivisible, highly heterogeneous and of budgetary significance. This makes it difficult to regulate fairness and effectiveness. The EU-funded DUALMARKETS project will design fair, efficient marketplaces for participants with varied preferences and income effects. A competitive equilibrium existence duality and a cooperative solution concept duality between economies with and without income effects will be researched to create designs of sealed-bid multi-item auctions. This will connect competitive equilibrium, matching markets and new auctions and also improve the market design toolkit, resulting in effective management of the diversity of preferences.

Assessing risks related to human geological activities

Accurate numerical simulations can be used to predict the effects of soil exploitation and are essential to successfully assess subsurface activities. The prevention of environmental damage hinges on this assessment of geological processes. The EU-funded PDGeoFF project will develop a mathematical and numerical framework to evaluate and prevent risks related to several human geological activities like geothermal energy production and CO2 capture and storage. The research will focus on the polyhedral discretisation methods for simulating fault mechanics and fracture propagation in poroelastic media. It will target the investigation of the models describing fault mechanics and the interaction between propagating fractures and fluid flow.

Sonic street technologies: culture, diaspora and knowledge

Sonic street technologies (SST) emerge in marginal environments in the cities and societies of the Global South, becoming an essential part of popular culture. Jamaican reggae sound systems, Brazilian mobile carnival trio elétrico, Mexican sonideros and Colombian los picos are among the representatives of these rising 'street' technologies. The EU-funded SST project is exploring the sophisticated practices and techniques used by SST and the social and cultural motivations in their communities of origin. The project will map the 'technological diaspora' of SST and use a cultural studies methodology to compare different local SST, study their social and economic conditions and detect possible Jamaican or African influences. The project addresses the relationships between culture and technology, how this generates new knowledge and the extent to which SST low-tech innovations can produce alternatives for individual and community well-being and self-determination.

Exploiting composition to simplify the complexity of algorithms

As mathematicians began developing computers in the 20th century, going from theory to practice, the field of automata theory was born. Automatons, or automata, are abstract models of simple machines or computing devices that automatically follow a predetermined sequence of operations. Automata help computer scientists to understand how a computer completes functions and solves problems. They also help them understand what it means for a function to be computable or for a question to be "decidable." Composition is an important mechanism in automata theory directly relevant to the decidability problem. The EU-funded FouCo project is investigating composition in automata and how to exploit it for specific applications, reducing the complexity of current algorithms.

Innovative technology for neuropathic chronic pain management

Chronic pain management is a significant public health issue worldwide. Neuropathic chronic pain is caused by damage or injury to the nerves that transfer information from the peripheral parts of the body to the brain and spinal cord. The most devastating type of neuropathic pain to patients’ quality of life is trigeminal neuralgia (TN). The trigeminal nerve is responsible for facial sensory function, and its damage can result in sudden, severe, stabbing and recurrent pain. Unfortunately, neuropathic pain often responds poorly to standard pain treatments, and TN patients suffer from a prolonged debilitating condition. To this end, the EU-funded HydroLieve project is developing an innovative non-migrating hydrogel as a long-lasting and drug-free treatment for chronic TN.

Improving working conditions for online jobs

Today’s so-called ‘gig economy’ is thriving thanks to the spread of online work platforms or apps, which provide employment to millions of people around the world. As this new market booms, there is a growing need to focus on working conditions. For instance, negotiating working hours and salaries is oftentimes difficult if not impossible. This form of employment can be described as highly stressful, low-income and with lengthy and erratic hours. The EU-funded FAIRWORK project will set the bases of a Fairwork Foundation that will co-develop fair work principles with key stakeholders. It will improve methods to evaluate those principles as well as estimate and classify platforms' behaviour in terms of fair work principles.

A boost for Europe’s circular bio-economy

Every year, over 900 million tonnes of waste biomass is produced, and nearly all of it (98 %) ends up in landfills, incinerators, or open dumps. The 2023 Circularity Gap Report reveals a global economy merely 7.2 % circular. Fortunately, the EU holds immense potential to convert this waste into valuable bio-based products, creating up to 10 times more jobs and 4-9 times more added value than energy use. Unfortunately, circular business models in bio-economy face hurdles, from fragmented supply chains to public acceptance. The EU-funded PRIMED project aims to tackle this issue by integrating primary producers into novel bio-economy value chains, fostering collaboration, and leveraging advanced bio-refineries in five living labs.

A financial shift for biodiversity conservation

As biodiversity faces a decline, it is necessary to redirect financial resources towards nature-positive investments. The dynamics of the financial system, prioritising certainty, and efficiency, pose a formidable obstacle. In this context, the EU-funded BIOFIN project will introduce a new framework and technology to standardise nature-positive investment processes and accelerate the green transition required to accomplish biodiversity goals set out by the EU. By streamlining decision-making, the project will create the enabling conditions for large-scale finance. Through real-life case studies, BIOFIN’s approach is expected to provide evidence-based recommendations and propel a green and digital transition essential for achieving the EU’s biodiversity goals.

Impulso a la bioeconomía circular europea

Cada año se producen más de 900 millones de toneladas de biomasa residual, y casi toda (98 %) acaba en vertederos, incineradoras o vertederos a cielo abierto. El informe sobre la brecha de circularidad de 2023 revela una economía mundial meramente circular en un 7,2 %. Afortunadamente, la Unión Europea tiene un inmenso potencial para convertir estos residuos en valiosos productos de origen biológico, creando hasta diez veces más puestos de trabajo y entre cuatro y nueve veces más valor añadido que el uso de la energía. Por desgracia, los modelos empresariales circulares en bioeconomía se enfrentan a obstáculos, desde la fragmentación de las cadenas de suministro hasta la aceptación pública. El equipo del proyecto PRIMED, financiado con fondos europeos, pretende resolver este problema integrando a los productores primarios en nuevas cadenas de valor de la bioeconomía, fomentando la colaboración y aprovechando las biorrefinerías avanzadas de cinco laboratorios vivientes.

Ein Impuls für eine europäische kreislauforientierte Bioökonomie

Jedes Jahr fallen über 900 Millionen Tonnen Biomasseabfälle an, die fast alle (98 %) in Deponien, Verbrennungsanlagen oder offenen Müllkippen landen. Der Circularity Gap Report 2023 zeigt, dass die Weltwirtschaft nur zu 7,2 % kreislauforientiert agiert. Glücklicherweise verfügt die EU über ein immenses Potenzial, diese Abfälle in wertvolle biobasierte Produkte umzuwandeln, wodurch bis zu zehnmal mehr Arbeitsplätze und eine vier- bis neunmal höhere Wertschöpfung als bei der Energienutzung geschaffen werden. Leider sind Kreislaufwirtschaftsmodelle in der Bioökonomie mit Hindernissen konfrontiert, von fragmentierten Lieferketten bis zur öffentlichen Akzeptanz. Ziel des EU-finanzierten Projekts PRIMED ist es, dieses Problem durch die Integration der Primärerzeugung in neuartige Wertschöpfungsketten der Bioökonomie, die Förderung der Zusammenarbeit und die Nutzung fortgeschrittener Bioraffinerien in fünf Reallaboren anzugehen.

Una spinta per la bioeconomia circolare europea

Ogni anno si producono oltre 900 milioni di tonnellate di biomassa di scarto e la quasi totalità (98 %) finisce in discariche, inceneritori o discariche a cielo aperto. Il Circularity Gap Report 2023 rivela un’economia globale circolare solo al 7,2 %. Fortunatamente, l’UE ha un immenso potenziale per convertire questi rifiuti in preziosi prodotti a base biologica, creando un numero di posti di lavoro fino a 10 volte superiore e un valore aggiunto da 4 a 9 volte superiore rispetto all’energia impiegata. Purtroppo, i modelli di business circolari nella bioeconomia incontrano ostacoli, dalla frammentazione delle catene di approvvigionamento all’accettazione da parte del pubblico. Il progetto PRIMED, finanziato dall’UE, intende affrontare questo problema integrando i produttori primari in nuove catene di valore della bioeconomia, promuovendo la collaborazione e sfruttando bio-raffinerie avanzate in cinque laboratori viventi.

Accelerating the development of European nuclear fuel for Russian-designed reactors

Nuclear reactor power plants produce energy though controlled nuclear reactions. Currently, there are 20 Russian-designed pressurised water reactors (VVER) in the EU and 15 in Ukraine. These VVER reactors used to depend mainly on Russian-produced nuclear fuel. The EU-funded APIS project is contributing to the accelerated work to qualify an alternative fuel with the aim of securing power generation. The focus is first on energy security for Europe followed by improved economics of operation and next-generation fuel design. Project work will extend the lifetime of VVER plants, at the same time increasing their safety.

Impuls dla europejskiej biogospodarki o obiegu zamkniętym

Każdego roku produkuje się ponad 900 milionów ton biomasy odpadowej, z czego prawie całość (98%) trafia na składowiska, do spalarni lub na otwarte wysypiska. Raport dotyczący braków w gospodarce o obiegu zamkniętym („2023 Circularity Gap Report”) ujawnia, że globalna gospodarka w zaledwie w 7,2% spełnia zasady obiegu zamkniętego. Na szczęście UE ma ogromny potencjał, aby przekształcić te odpady w cenne bioprodukty, tworząc do 10 razy więcej miejsc pracy i od 4 do 9 razy większą wartość dodaną niż wymagane zużycie energii. Niestety, modele biznesowe wykorzystujące obieg zamknięty w biogospodarce napotykają przeszkody, od rozdrobnionych łańcuchów dostaw po akceptację społeczną. Finansowany ze środków UE projekt PRIMED ma na celu rozwiązanie tego problemu poprzez włączenie producentów surowców do nowych łańcuchów wartości biogospodarki, wspieranie współpracy i wykorzystanie zaawansowanych biorafinerii w pięciu żywych laboratoriach.

Unlocking the potential of sponges and seaweeds

In the vast depths of our oceans, the potential of marine bioactive molecules is hindered by a lack of controlled infrastructure, impeding their extraction and synthesis. With corals, sponges, and algae holding the key to high-value biomolecules, the marine environment faces challenges from both global change and unsustainable harvesting. Traditional microbial engineering falls short in meeting expectations for producing these bioactives. With this in mind, the EU-funded COMBO project aims to leverage synthetic biology, omics technologies, and innovative co-culture systems to engineer marine metabolic pathways. This will offer a sustainable solution to unlock the full potential of marine sponges and seaweeds for the benefit of pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries.

Converting plastic waste into biodegradable chemicals

The escalating threat of plastic pollution arises from the excessive use of plastic products and their release into the environment. Polyethylene (PE) stands out as the most commonly employed plastic, yet its non-degradable nature results in either incineration or disposal in landfills (constituting 67 %). Merely 12 % of plastic waste undergoes recycling, with less than 1 % achieving transformation into high-quality products. In this context, the EU-funded ACTPAC project introduces a comprehensive, industry-viable method for converting PE into alkanes, high-value chemicals, and fully biodegradable polyesters. This initiative aims to establish systems to transform alkanes into monomers, facilitating the production of eco-friendly polyesters for diverse applications. By doing so, the project contributes zero-waste solutions to the management of plastic waste.

Advancing medical device innovation in Europe

The journey from groundbreaking medical research to real-world impact is often stalled by a gap between academic innovation and industry needs. This discrepancy, encompassing regulatory hurdles, pricing misalignments and unmet patient requirements, significantly hinders the timely introduction of novel medical devices. With the support of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions programme, the MedDevDoc project will work to bridge the divide. This initiative aims to equip 25 doctoral students with cutting-edge research and training, aligning them with the pulse of the European medtech landscape and accelerating the translation of innovations from labs to patients. Spearheaded by the University of Galway, in collaboration with the CÚRAM network and industry partners, the project aims to produce the next generation of innovative leaders.

Impact of Earth’s changes on plant and atmospheric variables

Plants use photosynthesis to produce carbohydrates and oxygen while emitting light as heat or solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence. The FLuorescence EXplorer (FLEX) mission, scheduled for a 2024 launch, aims to provide the most direct method for monitoring photosynthesis in plants. FLEX will collaborate with Copernicus Sentinel-3 satellite to fully leverage the data and its connection to photosynthetic activity. The ERC-funded FLEXINEL project employs machine learning and image processing techniques to monitor European vegetation productivity and carbon fluxes. This project incorporates cutting-edge methods in plant physiology and radiative transfer mechanisms within the leaf-canopy-atmosphere system. FLEXINEL investigates the relationship between solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) products and Sentinel-3 vegetation characteristics to better understand how changes in Earth’s environment impact plant and atmospheric variables.
