Strengthening the protection of suspects' procedural rights in pretrial proceedings in the EU through practice-oriented training for laywers (SUPRALAT). University of Antwerp

The overall project's goal is to contribute to the effective implementation of the Directives 2010/64/EU on the right to interpretation and translation, 2012/13/EU on the right to information, 2013/48/EU on the right of access to a lawyer. It will be achieved through the development of a training program for lawyers on the day-to-day facilitation of suspects' procedural rights. The program will consist of practitioner training modules and a ...

Architecture, Design and Art Practice Training-research. KU Leuven

Johan Verbeke

Architecture, Sint-Lucas Brussels and Ghent Campuses

The ADAPT-r ITN aims to significantly increase European research capacity through a unique and ground-breaking research model: at its core is the development of a robust and sustainable ITN in an emergent Supra-Disciplinary field of research across a range of design and arts disciplines – creative practice research. ADAPT-r will train new researchers, increase supervisory capacity, partner with private sector SMEs in research projects ...

Training Network in Non-Destructive Testing and Structural Health Monitoring of Aircraft structures KU Leuven

Martine Wevers

Structural Composites and Alloys, Integrity and Nondestructive Testing, Soft Matter and Biophysics

The “NDTonAIR” consortium involves Universities, Research Organisations and major European companies working on new Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) and Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) techniques for aerospace, of which both are key technologies. The goal is to train a new generation of scientists and engineers with a wide background of theoretical and experimental skills, capable of developing their research and entrepreneurial activities ...

MONPLAS: The training of early stage researchers for the development of technologies to monitor concentrations of micro and nanoplastics in water for their presence, uptake and threat to animal and human life. Vrije Universiteit Brussel

Heidi Ottevaere

Applied Physics and Photonics

Micro and nanoplastics have recently been found in our soil, tap water, bottled water, beer and even in the air we breathe, with a growing concern about the potential health risks they pose to us. Whether that is through ingesting the harmful bacteria they pick up when coming from wastewater plants, or just through injury and death of cells through contact, possibly through absorbtion of nanoplastics by cells, we really don’t know. Which is why ...

Hybrid Fibre-reinforced composites: achieving Synergetic effects through microstructural design and advanced simulation tools KU Leuven

Stepan Vladimirovitch Lomov

Structural Composites and Alloys, Integrity and Nondestructive Testing, Faculty of Engineering Science

The EU has set ambitious goals to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to combat climate change. The transport sector is a major contributor to these emissions, but the targets for this sector cannot be met with currently available materials technology. Due to the direct link between weight and energy consumption, EU investment in advancing lightweight technologies is crucial. Therefore, fibre-reinforced composites are a key technology, but they ...

Interdiscplinary Training in High-Troughput Sequencing, Bioinformatics and Model Systems: Moving towards Clinical applications of Genomics KU Leuven

Kathleen Freson

Centre for Molecular and Vascular Biology

This proposal is designed to expedite capacity building in Malta through training in Bioinformatics for the analysis of High-Throughput Sequencing data (HTS), Epigenomics and Model Systems for the validation of candidates identified by HTS.

Falling costs and accessibility to HTS technologies has made it easier for researchers to generate the data. The bottleneck is the data processing, analysis and integration of HTS data generated from ...

Bottom-Up generation of atomicalLy precise syntheTIc 2D MATerials for high performance in energy and Electronic applications – A multi-site innovative training action KU Leuven

Steven De Feyter

Molecular Imaging and Photonics

The “graphene rush” has triggered a great interest in the design and fabrication of synthetic 2D materials (S2DMs) excelling in their chemical and physical properties for future emerging technologies addressing numerous societal needs, such as faster and better performing electronics, as well as energy storage and conversion. To match the societal benefits of being at the forefront of new technological and scientific developments, the EC ...

Excellent research and expertise of quality of cancer care by internationally trained staff. KU Leuven

Walter Sermeus

Leuven Institute for Healthcare Policy

There is an international imperative to improve healthcare through health service research, including nursing research and new innovations. This EU-RISE project “Excellent research and expertise of quality of cancer care by internationally trained staff (INEXCA)” aims to utilize expertise across the globe to improve research, researcher training and care of cancer patients, family caregivers and patient and public involvement through ...

INnovative Network for Training in ToUch InteracTIVE Interfaces KU Leuven

Georges Gielen

Electronic Circuits and Systems (ECS)

INTUITIVE will train a generation of early stage researcher (ESR) in ground breaking scientific and technological
approaches in haptics. They will develop novel soft biomorphic tactile skin based on flexible electronics, miniaturized soft
sensors, and a powerful new understanding of tactile information processing in humans - intrinsically shaped through the
interaction with the environment, and aimed to advance robotics and ...

STTfT : Sustainable Tourism : Training for Tomorrow Hasselt University

Elke HERMANS

Traffic Safety

European protected area's (PA's) have an important role in European tourism, both as places of visitation and recreation, and as net contributors of regional and national economies. However, it is widely recognised that one of the biggest challenges for tourism is the sustainable conservation and management of the natural resources that support it. In 1995 EUROPARC set up the European Charter for Sustainable Tourism in Protected Areas ...
