Descrizione e Attività
Descrizione Generale
"Within the OPERRA project, it is proposed that the MELODI Association, as a well-advanced network, takes the lead in establishing the necessary structures able to manage the long-term European research programmes in radiation protection, also taking advantage of the valuable experience gathered through the DoReMi network of excellence. Whilst in fields adjacent to low-dose risk research (radioecology, nuclear emergency management) scientific issues would continue to be hosted by the sister associations, Alliance and NERIS, these associations are encouraged to join MELODI to establish an umbrella structure as equal partners.
OPERRA will exploit the synergies of EURATOM and other EC programmes considering the most relevant joint program areas and mechanisms for funding joint activities. The project will also strengthen the links with national funding programs as well as the European education and training structures. Also, it will take steps towards a greater involvement of those new Member States who could benefit from increased participation in the radiation research programmes. Finally, OPERRA will take steps to further integrate the joint use of infrastructures in European countries, and to develop and facilitate an easier access to research infrastructures.
The final objective of this project is to build up an umbrella coordination structure that has the capacity in a legal and logistical sense to administer future calls for research in radiation protection as a whole (including low-dose risk, radioecology, nuclear emergency management, and also research activities related to the medical uses of ionizing radiation) on behalf of the European Commission. OPERRA will prepare the organisation for a first competitive call by the end of 2013 for projects in low-dose risk research and a second competitive call in 2014 for broader projects in radiation protection research, subject to the approval of EC services, with the support of ""Go-between"" administrator operator and an external advisory entity."
Attività svolta da ENEA
Il progetto SOPRANO è finanziato nell'ambito del progetto OPERRA, inizialmente costituito da 14 partner, a cui se ne sono aggiunti dal 1.12.2014 altri 20 tra cui l'ENEA.
L'ENEA si occuperà di sviluppare un modello di risposta alle radiazioni ionizzanti che rifletta le complessità della biologia a livello di sistema (es. cellula/organismo) e di esplorare i collegamenti tra le tre componenti fondamentali della biologia dei sistemi: generazione dei dati, analisi bioinformatica e modellamento dei sistemi
