Published on | 9 months ago

Programmes AI Continent

The “Agridataspace” preparatory action, one of several data space-related projects financed by the Digital Europe programme, has concluded its activities and delivered recommendations for the roll-out of the Common European Agricultural Data Space (CEADS).

The project aimed at preparing a Common European Agricultural data space (CEADS) that facilitates data sharing, processing, and analysis in a secured, trusted, transparent and responsible manner. Deployment should lead to an increase in the sector’s performance and boost data-driven innovations – both on the private and public side. The CEADS, originally announced under the European Strategy for Data, will support the acceleration of the twin digital and green transitions in the sector, for the reduction of administrative burdens, and providing the foundation for the application of powerful, newly emerging Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools.

policy brief (.pdf) has been published to outline the proposed approach for the data space, as it regards governance and business models, and the blueprint for a technical reference architecture. In addition to discussing the enabling framing conditions, the document particularly reflects on how the different stakeholders can contribute to the implementation of the data space: policy-makers at EU and national levels, sectoral organisations, including farmers’ and producers’ organisations and cooperatives, industry, especially agricultural machinery manufacturers, and innovators, such as start-ups.

The Common European Agricultural Data Space will be one among many sectoral Common European Data Spaces

Methylomic – Hope & Improved outcomes for Crohn’s disease patients across Europe

The METHYLOMIC project, ‘targeting hope for personalised medicine in immune-mediated inflammatory diseases’ obtained funding from Horizon Europe’s Health Cluster. The project aims to personalise treatment allocation and enhance the effectiveness of medications for chronic immune-mediated diseases such as Crohn’s disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and psoriasis. BIRD, the Belgian inflammatory bowel disease research and development group, is a partner in the project and is involved in the OmiCrohn trial, a prospective randomised clinical trial for individualised therapy in Crohn’s disease patients. With BIRD’s active role in this trial, the project is set to deliver predictive, biomarker-based therapies that bring renewed hope for Crohn’s disease patients across Europe.
