Projects from other European funds

Other than the H2020 and Erasmus+ programs, other European Funds have funded a large number of projects in recent years, in collaboration with local authorities. Below you will find a non-exhaustive list of projects managed on campus by UCA and its partners (OCA, CHU, CNRS, INRIA, etc.)

ELSE : European Leadership for Safety Education

The European Leadership for Safety Education project (ELSE) aims to develop a leadership training program for nuclear industry executives in order to provide them with a permanent degree in nuclear safety. This academic training is based on setting up an international multidisciplinary research network on this topic This project has obtained €800,000 in funding over three years from the European Commission's Instrument for Nuclear Safety Cooperation. The project started in September 2019.

RECYSITE

LIFE RECYSITE - PRODUCTION OF FULLY RECYCLABLE AND REUSABLE GREEN COMPOSITES BASED ON BIORESINS AND NATURAL FIBRES

The RECYSITE project aims to develop thermosetting eco-composites from renewable resources: natural fibers from biological waste (flax fibers) and resins from natural resources (linseed oil and humins). Flax straw is either disposed of or burnt directly on the fields because of the long time it takes to decompose into the soil. Nevertheless, these flax stems contain fibrous materials that can be recovered.

DEEPCURE

This project will develop a new bio-material aimed at significantly reducing the cost of treating serious injuries and burns.

EIT Digital

The EIT Digital arm of Sophia Antipolis was inaugurated in May 2014. It is the perfect place for formal and informal meetings between students, university professors, researchers, companies and manufacturers in the digital field. 
In addition, the site is the base for two Master’s degrees: the 1st and 2nd year of the Master’s in Data Science and the 2nd year of the Master’s in Internet Technology and Architecture. 

En2Bria: Enhancing Enforcement under Brussels Ia

The project aims to increase the capacity of practitioners to address issues related to judicial cooperation in civil and business matters; to increase awareness, at both practical and institutional level, of the complexities of the relationship between the Brussels Ia Regulation and other EU instruments; to improve the legal framework and regulations concerning judicial cooperation in civil matters by identifying possible solutions to mitigate the main criticalities examined
 

AFRIMED : Algal Forest Restoration in MEDiterranean sea

The project involves a combination of spatial analysis, laboratory studies, pilot field actions and awareness building to the blue growth sectors, the general public and decision-makers.
 

Ocean4Biotech : European transdisciplinary networking platform for marine biotechnology

The overall aim of Ocean4Biotech is to bring together experts in the field of marine biotechnology research, to provide a platform for sharing experiences, knowledge and technology and establish a road map for more effective and faster development of marine biotechnology research in Europe and beyond. 
 

PerMedSchiz : Personalized medicine in schizophrenia: predicting relapse, treatment response and the potential benefit of add-on anti-inflammatory agents

Schizophrenia is a debilitating mental illness that affects millions of Europeans. While antipsychotic drugs relieve symptoms in one-third of patients, the majority of patients are resistant to treatment. Although guidelines are available, there is an urgent need to identify objective predictors of treatment outcomes to guide individualized treatment.

EUROFUSION

A roadmap for achieving nuclear fusion was adopted by the EFDA system at the end of 2012. The roadmap aims to obtain all the necessary know-how to launch the construction of a demonstration power plant (DEMO) by 2030, in order to achieve the objective of injecting fusion power into the grid by 2050. The roadmap was arranged into eight different tasks. The aim of this proposal is to implement the activities described in the Roadmap during the Horizon 2020 period through a joint program of the EUROfusion consortium members.

INEUPUP : INnovation EUropean PUPpetry

4 partners, 3 countries, 1 joint project co-financed by the European Union within the framework of the Europe Creative program to develop puppetry arts in Europe. To achieve this, several digital tools and training tools are being developed.
