PublicationOnline platform for conducting responsible research and innovations( 2016)
;Ajami, M. ;Grabner, L. ;Giambene, G. ;Le, V. ;Luong, D.Pearson, J.This paper deals with the implementation of an online platform for Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI), which provides anticipatory and deliberative tools to address societal expectations with regard to resrarch and innovation and mobilises information technology tools for inclusive, responsive and sustainable research. In particular, we have developed a Forum, which is a Web-based application and service for stakeholders (members of the RRI community) to deliberate and discuss about RRI. Different interaction modalities are supported by the Forum, such as: 'Caucus Process', Suggestion Board, Partnership Initiative, etc. A special attention is devoted to the Citizen Jury and Tacit Knowledge modules that represent innovative features of our Forum. The outcomes show that our online Forum represents an effective solution to address RRI issues by adopting e-Government and knowledge management approaches. This work was carried out as part of EU FP7 Responsibility project. -
PublicationLaunching a framework of security and privacy in the VPH(Fraunhofer IPK, 2010)
;Cox, B. ;Hatzaras, K. ;Giambene, G. ;Chini, P. ;Mitrou, L. ;Stylianidis, S.Menevidis, Z.The aims of this deliverable are to identify the societal needs that should be considered in the implementation of IS policies in VPH research (Virtual Physiological Human), to benchmark the approaches, tools and techniques of VPH research projects for utilising personal health and other information in a secure manner, to identify specific security and privacy risks in the VPH that may appropriately be addressed through public policy and technology, and to put together a framework of minimum IS requirements in VPH research. -
PublicationD3.2 - v2 VPH S&P User Requirements and ICT Challenges - integrated edition of D3.1, D3.2 and D4.1(Fraunhofer IPK, 2010)
;Giambene, G. ;Chini, P. ;Hadzic, S. ;Cox, B. ;Hatzaras, K. ;Menevidis, Z. ;Mitrou, E. ;Lange, M. ;Schug, S.Stylianidis, S.This deliverable starts with a brief review of the projects that have been identified as background for the VPH framework. It then presents the methodology adopted for the elicitation of user S&P requirements by considering several categories of users intended as VPH stakeholders, the composition of a respondent sample of organisations, and the data collection methods. Consultation of stakeholders has been carried out by means of questionnaires of three different types: (i) a first pilot questionnaire (for identifying some main S&P topics), (ii) a full Web questionnaire for massive access (for statistics purposes), and (iii) a legal questionnaire (for contacting EU national data protection authorities). In addition to this, requirements have been elicited through interviews based on an interview guide) and in panel sessions in two workshops organised by RADICAL project. -
PublicationRoad mapping technology for enhancing security to protect medical & genetic data. D6.1 RADICAL project dissemination strategy( 2009)
;Lange, M. ;Giambene, G. ;Stylianidis, S. ;Smagas, K. ;Chini, P. ;Menevidis, Z. ;Cox, B. ;Tavlaki, E.Kolios, A.The RADICAL Dissemination Strategy describes the approach and strategic planning for raising the awareness for, and supporting the understanding of the VPH approach and particularly also for the protection of medical and genetic data in the implemen-tation of that approach. It supports further the promotion of the RADICAL projects&8223; results, in particular to researchers, health projects in the FP7 programme, EU policy makers, national health authorities and other stakeholders. -
PublicationRADICAL-VPH-Security/Privacy-Questionnaire(Fraunhofer IPK, 2009)
;Chini, P. ;Cox, B. ;Giambene, G. ;Guariglia, C. ;Hadzic, S. ;Hatzaras, K. ;Kolios, A. ;Lange, M. ;Menevidis, Z. ;Mitrou, L. ;Smagas, K.Tavlaki, E.This questionnaire deals with the Virtual Physiological Human (VPH) that is a methodological and technological framework for the investigations of the human body as a single system. In particular, VPH entails computational and Information & Communication Technology (ICT)-based tools for collecting clinical and laboratory observations, as well as for creating large collections of models that can be interconnected to simulate human anatomy, physiology and pathology, thus permitting scientists and medical practitioners a better knowledge of the real physiological human. VPH is a multi-disciplinary field aimed at developing quantitative, integrative and predictive models that describe human life from conception to death and from genes to the whole organism.
