Bioinformatics and Information Retrieval Data Structures Analysis and DesignMSCA RISE 2015 Project (H2020 EU project MSCA GA No 690941)
Communication, Dissemination
and ExploitationRISE 2018 Coordinators' Day - Brussels, January 18th, 2019
This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie grant agreement No 690941
BIRDS project - key points
- 4 year project (January 1st 2016 - December 31st 2019)
- 8 partners (Spain, Portugal, Finland, Chile, Australia, Japan)
- Exploit synergies and transfer knowledge between researchers from two
different fields: Bioinformatics + Information Retrieval
- Both fields deal with challenges due to the enormous data when: - storing, processing, indexing, searching, navigating
- Advanced data structures and algorithms tackle similar tasks- Efficient in time and space → impact on sustainability and equal opportunities
- Goal: to develop integrated approaches to improve current approaches

Communication, dissemination and exploitation strategy
WP6: Dissemination and Demonstration Activities
Objectives
O6.1: To disseminate the findings of the project
O6.2: To create a network of external researchers that also contribute to the project
O6.3: To attract and train new researchers in the topic of the project
O6.4: To engage and increase the understanding of the non-specialist public in the field
Tasks:
T6.1: Organization of two workshops and a final conference
T6.2: Organize two summer schools
T6.3: Define the dissemination and communication plan, including IP-related issues,
access rights and confid. matters
T6.4: Coordinate internal scientific periodic reporting and review meetings
T6.5: Promote and evaluate the quality of the publication of the results in scientific intern.
conferences and journals
T6.6: Launch and maintenance of the project website
T6.7: Create teaching material for graduate courses and also for MOOCs
Deliverables:
D6.1: Final report of WP6
Two dedicated work packages:
WP5: Research Integration, Benchmarking and Evaluation
Objectives
O5.1: To evaluate the viability of the research results obtained from WP2, WP3
and WP4 over real scenarios
O5.2: Transfer to market and commercialize, if possible, the research results
obtained from WP2, WP3 and WP4
Tasks:
T5.1: Integration of research results from WP2, WP3 and WP4 generating
prototypes
T5.2: Prototypes testing and evaluating
T5.3: Demonstrations planning (in collaboration with WP6)
Deliverables:
D5.1 : Initial Exploitation plan (M26)
D5.2 : Integration report (M33)
D5.3 : Final Exploitation Plan (M36)
D5.4 : Benchmark and test report (M40)
D5.5 : Prototypes WP5 (M40)
