Deliverables

Data Management Plan (1)

Data Management Plan

A Data Management Plan (DMP) following the HE guidelines will address the relevant aspects of making data FAIR, including what data the project will generate, whether and how it will be made accessible for verification and re-use, and how it will be curated and preserved. The DMP will also include details of the security measures to be taken in the context of the transfer of data from non-EU countries to prevent unauthorised access to personal data.

Websites, patent fillings, videos etc. (1)

Project website

Report on the design, set up and maintenance of the website

Documents, reports (4)

3D muscle generation

Protocol to generate advanced disease-specific 3D muscle models

Exploitation Plan (first release)

This plan is a strategic document indicating how the consortium establishes the basis for the intellectual property management and exploitation of key research outputs. It will include a preliminary analysis of analysis of both the research and market landscapes

Communication and Dissemination plan (first release)
