European NoVel Imaging Systems for ION therapy
The FP7 Research Infrastructure ULICE Project (Union of Light Ions Centres in Europe) addresses the important issues of high precision dose delivery in hadron-therapy. In-vivo monitoring of delivered dose and quality assurance are of equal importance for clinical therapy and will be addressed in this complementary ENVISION project. See video.

Space Radiation Superconductive Shield 
SR2S explores the feasibility of a superconducting magnetic shield to protect astronauts from long time exposure to Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCR) and Solar Energetic Particles (SEP) which are thought to cause a significant increase in the probability of various type of cancers. It also includes the development of some key abilitating technologies to be used to build such a spacecraft shield.

Cities demonstrating cybernetic mobility 
CityMobil highlighted the importance of automating road vehicles, from partly automated car-share schemes through CyberCars and PRT, to BRT which can make urban mobility more sustainable. CityMobil2 aims to address the main barriers that have been identified to the deployment of automated road vehicles: the implementation framework, the legal framework and the unknown wider economic effect.
