COPLASMAVID -Atmospheric plasma treatments on textiles for virus decontamination and for increase...

In the context of the COVID19 pandemic, many countries in Europe suffer from critical shortages of personal protective equipment (PPE) such as 'Filtering Face Piece' (FFP) masks and lab coats. In order to address this challenge, several initiatives throughout Western Europe are carried out to re-use the available equipment through decontamination or even sterilisation processes. So far, technologies such as chemical sterilization, irradiation technologies, UV exposure, supercritical CO2 or vacuum plasma have been tested and proved to be efficient against COVID19 contamination. However, they...

TraAct-DD - Track and Act with Data Donation #getout #stayout

Luxembourg is entering a gradual deconfinement phase. For this to be successful, it is critical that the country protect vulnerable people and build the trust of the population in going back to work, to school safely. It is also vital to identify asymptomatic COVID-positive patients and to wisely direct the (scarce) tests. If Luxembourg can manage this, epidemiological models indicate that a gradual release of the population may stem the pandemic and enable return to normal (#getout, #stayout). The ongoing debate at the government level indicates hesitation between blue-tooth tracing, ma...

CardioCube: COVID AI-driven conversational agent

CardioCube COVID enables virtual care for patients with coronavirus and quarantined individuals using AI-driven conversational agents deployed on smartphones and smart speakers. Automatic forward triage system allows to multiply healthcare provider's workforce increasing patients and providers safety thorough physical distancing. CardioCube COVID will include following modules: 1. Clinical Follow-Up - periodically, using mobile or voice interface, user answers a set of clinical questions to evaluate the health status at home. CardioCube red-flags patients/quarantined individuals at-r...

Rapid large-scale decontamination of viruses using Engineered Water Nanostructures

Engineered Water Nanostructures (EWNS) are nanometer-sized droplets of ionized or charged water containing reactive oxygen species (ROS) which provide a highly effective, low cost, green, non-toxic of humans solution for rapid decontamination of microbes. Unlike harmful chemicals currently used in disinfectants, charged water has no effect on humans and has been found to be a safer alternative. Additionally, CDC has already added superoxidized (containing EWNS) water among the list of disinfectants found to be effective against viruses. In this project, we propose design, development, ...

AnalysisMode

We are creating a citizen science platform to allow any person, without scientific background, to be involved in the search for a COVID-19 vaccine. Our solution combines human and artificial intelligence in a model to predict vaccine candidates.

CN Gateway

A modular, transportable autonomous CNG or 'Clear Nano Gate' offering disinfection and/or decontamination zones that will be an asset to all buildings. Combined with energy self-sufficiency, these 'CNG's' will provide a variety of optional 'safety' solutions for schools, hospitals, hotels, airports as well as other commercial and residential real estate.

Rapid Development and Initial Preclinical Evaluation of an Effective Candidate Vaccine against SARS-CoV-2

The current pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 is a threat not only to global health but also to the economy since it is dramatically affecting the socioeconomic layers of societies around the planet. Thus, it will be critically important to advance in the production of an effective vaccine, which will be crucial for building up sufficient population-based immunity to efficiently curb the pandemic. While SARS-CoV-2 can infect everyone at all ages, it is mainly the elderly population that is most at risk of a fatal outcome. Elderly persons are charecterized by a declining immune function, known a...

FAREWELL to C19 (FAmily REsponse and WELL-Being impact of Covid-19

Lockdowns and the economic crisis induced by Covid-19 are imposing unprecedented constraints on families in terms of freedom of choice, consumption opportunities, time use, and social interaction. While working from home has become the norm, it also implies a dramatic increase in inequality among families, since people most likely to be working from home were already better off. The FAREWELL to C19 project aims to analyse how these effects concur with individual traits (such as age, gender, economic status, and resilience under uncomfortable circumstances) to shape people's preferences, eco...
