EMPIR CALL 2015: FINALISATION OF EVALUATION PROCESS
The evaluation process of the Stage 2 Call for 2015 has been finalised.
Following the Review Conference held in November, where external independent referees evaluated and ranked the proposals, the EMPIR Committee agreed on a final list of selected projects to fund. The following project proposals have been selected and will be invited for contract negotiation:
Health
- Quantitative measurement and imaging of drug-uptake by bacteria with antimicrobial resistance
- Role of metals and metal containing biomolecules in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease
- Metrology for modern hearing assessment and protecting public health from emerging noise sources
- Innovative measurements for improved diagnosis and management of neurodegenerative diseases
- Metrology for multi-modality imaging of impaired tissue perfusion
- Metrology for clinical implementation of dosimetry in molecular radiotherapy
- Novel materials and methods for the detection, traceable monitoring and evaluation of antimicrobial resistance
- Metrology for MR guided radiotherapy
- Metrology for additively manufactured medical implants
Normative
- Metrology for sampling and conditioning SO2 emissions from stacks
- Techniques for ultra-high voltage and very fast transients
- Metrology for sustainable hydrogen energy applications
- Standard tests and requirements for rate-of-change of frequency (ROCOF) measurements in smart grids
Research Potential
- Development of RF and microwave metrology capability
- Underwater acoustic calibration standards for frequencies below 1 kHz
- Expansion of European research capabilities in humidity measurement
- Traceability routes for electrical power quality measurements
SI Broader Scope
- Reference algorithms and metrology on aspherical and freeform lenses
- Implementing the new kelvin 2
- Optical clocks with 1E-18 uncertainty
- Waveform metrology based on spectrally pure Josephson voltages• Optical frequency transfer - a European network
- Nano-scale traceable magnetic field measurements
- Future photometry based on solid-state lighting products
- Quantum realisation of the SI ampere
- Traceable three-dimensional nanometrology
- Radionuclide beta spectra metrology
Support for Impact
The previous EMRP JRP that each SIP is linked to is shown in brackets
- Standard to certify the purity of zero gas in ambient air measurements (ENV01)
- An International Standard for Reliable Chemical Depth Profiling of Organic Materials (NEW01)
- Standards and e-learning course to maximize the uptake of infusion and calibration best practices (HLT07)Time synchronization impact enabling future network communication (SIB02)
- Methodology and software to increase uptake of advanced uncertainty evaluation methods (NEW04)
- Validation of software development and analysis tools using TraCIM (NEW06)
