The field of catalytic green hydrogen production, although indispensable for the transition to a renewable future, still suffers from widespread irreproducibility of results that limits its full commercialisation. The largest obstacle lies in the methods widely employed in synthesising the active catalysts, which impede unambiguously identifying the property-structure...
Cancer is one of the leading causes for disease and death in Europe with millions of people being diagnosed or dying because of it. In addition, billions of euros need to be injected into the system to fight these diseases. Cancer tumours are extremely heterogeneous entities with complex subclonal structures that interact with normal cells surrounding them. This complexity...
Today's tremendous interdisciplinary effort towards building a quantum computer promises to tackle problems beyond the reach of any classical computer. Although intermediate-scale quantum computers have been recently demonstrated to exceed the capability of the most powerful supercomputers, it is widely recognized that addressing any real-world problem will require upscaling...
The AIR project responds to Europe's aspiration for leadership and reflects the common essence and concern essential to all Europeans, indeed to everything on the planet, the air we breathe. Air is considered an environmental quality, a meeting space and a space for expression: it does not distinguish between countries or social classes. Air means sustainability, an indicator...
Cold air outbreaks are typical of the mid-latitude climate during the cold season. Their relevance relies on the threat to life caused by the long-lasting periods with abnormally low temperatures, the potential of damage to crops, and the occurrence of high-impact weather events such as heavy snow and low visibility during blizzards.
Previous studies...
To underpin the regular use of integrated economic and health modelling in impact assessments and socio-economic analysis by public authorities, the MARCHES project aims to advance methodological rigour and consistency in accounting for the welfare economic health costs of air pollution and drinking water nitrate, based on systematic reviews of health effects, and by...
ASPECT aims to setup and demonstrate a seamless climate information (SCI) system with a time horizon up to 30yr and accompanied with underlying research and using climate information for sectoral applications ( middle-ground level 1). The project's goal is to improve existing climate prediction systems and to merge their outputs across timescales together with climate...
Compound events (CEs) can pose significant threats to societies, economies and ecosystems around the world, especially when amplified by anthropogenic climate change (ACC). There is therefore a strong need for skilled, reliable and actionable predictions of how CEs are expected to change in the next decades to help governments and stakeholders implement robust adaptation...
Einstein Telescope (ET) will be the European Third-Generation (3G) Gravitational Wave (GW) Observatory, designed to observe the universe by covering the whole spectrum observable from Earth with interferometric GW detectors. ET will put Europe at the forefront of GW research, being the first and most advanced 3G GW observatory.
Europe will take the...
CAELESTIS will develop an end-to-end Interoperable Simulation Ecosystem (ISE) that will perform multidirectional dataflow across the aircraftvalue chain linking product design and distributed engineering teams´ CAD-CAE tools, to accelerate the design and engineering optimization of disruptive aircraft and engine configurations, ensuring their manufacturability from the...
