MyNewGut R&I project - Final Conference - 18 October 2018, Stanhope Hotel, Brussels

[Source: Research & Innovation] EUFIC, together with all partners of the MyNewGut project, is organising a final conference to present the results of this five-year EU funded project and provide an input on how the human gut microbiota and its genome (microbiome) influence obesity, behavioural - and lifestyle-related disorders. The MyNewGut project – which falls under the European Union’s Seventh Framework Programme, - brings together 30 partners from 15 different countries and aimed to identify specific dietary strategies to improve the long-term health of the population. Why is it relevant for research and innovation? Emerging evidence indicates that the gut microbiome contributes to our ability to extract energy from the diet and influences development and function of the immune, endocrine and nervous systems, which regulate energy balance and behaviour. This has led to hypothesize that developing microbiome-based dietary interventions can be cost-effective measures to prevent diet-related and behavioural disorders.

Connected Transport Summit 2018 - The future of mobility in the digital era - 16 October 2018, Brussels (BE)

[Source: Research & Innovation] Traditional means of transport have entered the digital realm at an exponential rate – redefining modern mobility in the process. Digital connectivity is not only a solution for new efficiency, safety and sustainability standards, but also a regulatory reality. Theory is turning into practice: How will authorities today build the future of tomorrow? With the EU’s third and final instalment of its ‘Europe on the Move’ mobility package just announced this May, along with key revelations regarding the EU budget post-2020, and the conclusion of key digital files within the Electronic Communications Code hoped for in June, lawmakers will be grappling with the nuts and bolts of intelligent transport systems (ITS), autonomous vehicles, data management, research spending priorities, smart cities and multi-modal networks. Join the event: many questions are on the table to steer discussions amongst over 120 policymakers, experts, regulators and disruptors cross-cutting sectors such as transport, tech, telecommunication, energy and more for a full-day, highly-interactive Summit in Brussels. POLITICO’s journalists will lead high-level interviews, dynamic discussions and breakout sessions.

Research Headlines - Repairing cartilage damage with a little help from 3D printing

[Source: Research & Innovation] Roughly 151 million people worldwide suffer from osteoarthritis, meaning that they experience chronic pain, reduced mobility and limited quality of life. Attempts to repair cartilage thus far have offered limited functionality and only temporary pain reduction. The usual course of action is therefore to replace the entire joint, rather than repair the damaged cartilage. A team of researchers from the EU and Australia is however working on a promising alternative in which 3D printing plays a key role.
