EU-CELAC IG

FAPESP supports, in Brazil, the EU-CELAC Interest Group for bi-regional STI cooperation (EU-CELAC IG) initiative, that replaces the ERA.Net-LAC Consortium. FAPESP has integrated ERA.Net-LAC since 2015. The EU-CELAC IG is a group of development agencies from countries of the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States and member and associated countries of the European Union that wish to cooperate bi-regionally in Science, Technology and Innovation.

Abstract
HELVA (Hybrid ELectrosynthesis of Value-Added chemicals) seeks to demonstrate a hybrid system that integrates the synthesis complex carbon-based molecules through tandem carbon dioxide electroreduction into acetate and microbial upgrade into polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA). The project starts at a TRL = 2 and is projected to end at a TRL of 4. (AU)

Abstract
Rehabilitation treatments for neuromuscular disorders are variable across clinical centers and national healthcare systems and are largely dependent on the clinical experience of the practitioners. One of the main difficulties of the treatment is to monitor the progress of rehabilitation before signs of motor improvements. Misinformation may frustrate the patient and the practitioner and …

Abstract
Cooperation between Bioimaging and Structural Biology Research Infrastructures (RIs) has been strengthened in recent years, especially in the context of the EU-LAC ResInfra project. However, for these interactions to have an impact in Health, concrete global actions should be strategically planned, ensuring long-term sustainability. We are here proposing a coordinated biregional effort in…

Abstract
SmartHouB will develop a novel functional hybrid laminate material system combining printed electronics with a lightweight structural composite and a metal layer. Laminate sheets are intended to be processed into structural shell-type parts by forming processes, and parts can subsequently be joined by adhesive bonding, cinching or friction stir welding-the latter will be further developed…

Abstract
EMMA project responds to the M-ERA.NET Call 2020, Topic 1: Modeling for materials engineering and processing. Within this topic and in coherence with the existing and planned developments at the M-ERA Consortium and European industry, the overall objective is to enhance the European competitiveness for the next generation of robust damage tolerant designs and reliable multi-method approac…

Abstract
Diarrhea is an important disease burden worldwide. It causes considerable childhood mortality in the developing world and is associated with morbidity and substantial health care costs also in industrialized countries. Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) are a major cause of acute diarrhea in developing and industrialized regions. So far, the gold standard for EAEC identification is…
