Casa Azul Productions

Hispanic are underrepresented in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) career professions. According to the United States Department of Education, Hispanics “occupy only 2% of the STEM workforce in the United States.” This project focuses on tackling this specific issue by implementing a pilot apprenticeship program on digital media production in the Technology Industry. This project, titled La Casa Azul Productions’ Digital Media Apprenticeship Pilot Program, will concentrate on implementing an apprenticeship program where Hispanic youth from disadvantaged communities will receive training and knowledge on careers related to technology, specifically in digital media content creation, such as video production, social media management, and user experience (UX) design. Our goal is for Hispanic youth to become familiar with careers in Technology through apprenticeship programs.

FAIR4Health Project: Improving Health Research in EU through FAIR Data

Expiration: November 30, 2021

European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 824666.
FAIR4Health is a research project funded by the European Commission through the Horizon 2020 Research Programme under the topic “Science with and for Society SwafS-04-2018: Encouraging the re-use of research data generated by publically funded research projects”. This project is coordinated by Virgen del Rocío University Hospital of the Andalusian Health Service (SAS) accounting with seventeen partners from eleven EU and non-EU countries (Spain, Portugal, Italy, UK, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Netherlands, Belgium, Serbia and Turkey). The consortium consists of 6 health research organisations, 2 universities internationally recognised as experts in data management, 2 universities and 2 institutes with strong background on medical informatics, and 5 business actors. The project officially started on the 1st of December 2018 and will be running for 3 years.
The FAIR4Health consortium joins forces to facilitate and encourage the EU Health Research community to share and reuse their datasets derived from publicly funded research initiatives by applying the FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable); through the demonstration of the potential impact that such strategy will have on health outcomes and health research. In this sense, FAIR4Health will apply privacy-preserving distributed data mining techniques over the shared datasets to develop 2 pathfinder case studies: (i) supporting the discovery of disease onset triggers and disease association patterns in comorbid patients, and (ii) a prediction service for 30-days readmission risk in complex chronic patients.
FAIR4Health outcomes will inform the European Commission’s transversal strategy on the management of datasets generated with publically funded research initiatives.

The Digital Literacies of Indonesian Secondary Students: An Exploration to Inform Their Educators

Expiration: February 12, 2020

This research project addresses a significant educational need in Indonesia to build local knowledge about students’ digital literacy practices and Information and Communication Technology (ICT) use for learning. In partnership with a UNNES teacher educator and English as a Foreign Language scholar, this study employed surveys and focus groups to generate data about how, why, when, where, and to what ends secondary students from Central Java utilize technologies in their everyday lives. The study uses abductive analysis to put existing theories, largely derived from studies conducted in Western contexts, in conversation with the data to identify anomalies and unexpected findings that are unique to the Indonesian context. Findings will be shared with teachers, teacher educators, and policy makers to improve the digital literacy and ICT education for Indonesian youth and with the larger research community to expand the world’s definition of digital literacy.

UNITE (Universities for Science, Informatics and Technologies in the eSociety)

The research activities of the UNITe are divided into 9 work packages, and for each of them a coordinating institution is defined. These packages include "Big Data Infrastructure as a Service"; "Big Data Software Services"; "Innovative Mathematical Methods and Models in the Digital World"; "Big Data Systems for Analysis and Virtualization in a Real-time"; "Virtualization, Digitization and Prototyping"; "Intelligent Cyber-Physical Systems"; "Smart and Sustainable Cities"; “Factories of the Future” and “Big Data in the Natural Sciences”. One of the project's activities is to create conditions and prerequisites after the end of the project, the infrastructure to be used by the industry for the commercialization of the scientific results and for the creation of spin-off and start-up enterprises. In addition to the provided access to the distributed research infrastructure, the digital hub and services offered to businesses and public organisations will be an additional source of medium- and long-term funding, ensuring sustainability in the development of the Centre.
