Establishing continuous biomarker monitoring for Big Data in fitness and healthcare

Project description

Novel test strip upgrades Big Data sensing

The EU-funded eCONFIDENCE project aims to evaluate possible commercial applications of a multi-sensor test strip as well as the necessary oxygen scavengers that have been patented within the European Research Council starting grant “REDOX SHIELDS.” Such a multi-analyte test strip can be used to calibrate the millions of data points generated by wearables every day to improve the accuracy of non-invasive sensors in a Big Data scheme in health and fitness. The test strip is ideal in that it has been designed to accurately measure multiple analytes from even a tiny drop of blood.

Objective

Goal of the PoC is to evaluate possible commercial applications of a multi-sensor test strip and the necessary oxygen scavenger that were patented within the ERC starting grant “REDOX SHIELDS”. Such a multi-analyte sensor can be used to calibrate the millions of data points generated by wearables every day to improve the accuracy of non-invasive sensors in a Big Data scheme in fitness and healthcare. The test strip is designed to accurately measure multiple analytes from a tiny drop of blood.

Fields of science (EuroSciVoc)

CORDIS classifies projects with EuroSciVoc, a multilingual taxonomy of fields of science, through a semi-automatic process based on NLP techniques. See: https://op.europa.eu/en/web/eu-vocabularies/euroscivoc.

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Funding Scheme

Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.

Net EU contribution

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
