ARRIÈRE-PLAN
La modélisation mathématique est un outil précieux pour éclairer l’élaboration des politiques et la prise de décisions programmatiques dans le domaine de la santé publique. La modélisation peut être appliquée pour analyser des domaines clés, depuis l'estimation de la charge de morbidité jusqu'à l'évaluation de l'impact potentiel des interventions de contrôle et l'information sur le développement de produits. Les approches visant à guider l'action de santé publique, dirigées par des unités de modélisation locales et co-créées avec les décideurs, apportent une compréhension inestimable du contexte et des questions locales/régionales pertinentes, permettant ainsi un impact plus important. Partout en Afrique, il existe une communauté croissante de modélisateurs de santé publique et un recours croissant à l’expertise locale en modélisation pour éclairer la politique et la prise de décision dans un large éventail de domaines de la santé. La Fondation Bill & Melinda Gates (BMGF) et Wellcome s'engagent à soutenir la croissance continue de cette communauté. En juin 2023, la BMGF et Wellcome ont co-organisé un atelier réunissant plus de 100 modélisateurs, décideurs politiques, responsables de la mise en œuvre, du personnel des programmes nationaux de contrôle des maladies, des bailleurs de fonds et d'autres parties prenantes pour discuter de la manière de renforcer l'écosystème de modélisation de la santé publique en Afrique. L'atelier a mis en évidence un fort consensus dans plusieurs domaines, notamment : veiller à ce que le travail de modélisation soit axé sur les domaines prioritaires des programmes/systèmes de santé et/ou sur les lacunes de la recherche ; la modélisation doit être conçue et menée conjointement avec les décideurs ; et la communauté africaine de modélisation de la santé publique bénéficierait d’une connectivité accrue, à la fois entre les modélisateurs et les décideurs et entre les unités de modélisation. Les participants à l'atelier ont identifié plusieurs activités de collaboration qui pourraient soutenir cette connectivité, notamment : des réunions annuelles de la communauté des mannequins ; engagement et collaboration organisés avec les décideurs ; des opportunités coordonnées de formation, de mentorat et d’échange de recherche ; groupes de travail et échange de connaissances; et des plateformes et principes communs pour guider le partage de méthodes, de données et de codes.améliorer la traduction des résultats de la modélisation en impact politique .LE DÉFI

BACKGROUND
Mathematical modeling is a valuable tool for informing policy-making and programmatic decision-making in the public health domain. Modeling can be applied to analyze key areas from disease burden estimation, to evaluating the potential impact of control interventions, to informing product development. Approaches to guide public health action led by local modeling units and co-created with decision-makers, bring an invaluable understanding of relevant local/regional context and questions, enabling higher impact. Across Africa, there is a growing community of public health modelers and an increasing use of local modeling expertise to inform policy- and decision-making across a range of health areas. The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) and Wellcome are committed to supporting the continued growth of this community. In June 2023, BMGF and Wellcome co-hosted a workshop bringing together over 100 modelers, policymakers, implementers, national disease control program staff, funders, and other stakeholders to discuss how to strengthen the public health modeling ecosystem in Africa. The workshop highlighted strong consensus for several areas, including: ensuring that modeling work is focused on program/health system priority areas and/or research gaps; modeling should be co-designed and led with decision-makers; and the African public health modeling community would benefit from increased connectedness, both between modelers and decision-makers and between modeling units. Workshop attendees identified several collaborative activities that would support this connectedness, including: annual meetings of the modeling community; organized engagement and collaboration with decision-makers; coordinated training, mentorship, and research exchange opportunities; working groups and knowledge exchange; and common platforms and principles to guide method-, data- and code-sharing. The workshop's findings align well with recent work on improving the translation of modeling results into policy impact.THE CHALLENGE
This request for proposals (RFP) seeks proposals for innovative, high-quality modeling projects that will address specific research questions whilst:- increasing connectedness between African modeling institutes.
- growing the African modeling ecosystem.
- accelerating the translation of modeling outputs into meaningful policy and programmatic impact.
- Advance scientific understanding of key public health priority areas (see thematic areas below for eligible topics) and leverage modeling outputs to inform decision-making by local, regional, or continental health officials and agencies.
- Develop, implement, and/or improve tools, processes and methods that enable the use of modeling to inform public health decision-making.
- Strengthen connections between African modeling units, data partners (e.g. data scientists/collectors) and policy- and decision-making officials and agencies through collaborative projects. Such collaboration should lead to programmatic impact, with co-creation of the analytical questions, analysis plans, and communication of outputs.
- Design and execute South-South collaborative activities to support knowledge exchange, cultivate partnerships between modeling units, and promote the use of modeling within health systems.
- Use community standards for open science, including FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable, reusable) principles where possible, thereby contributing to the development of trustworthy data science to promote collaboration within funded projects and beyond.
- The project teams funded through this RFP will be expected to work together on shared areas of interest including, but not limited to, knowledge exchange and decision-maker engagement.
- The governance structure of this cross-project collaboration will be designed in Year 1 of the program by the successful project teams, together with Wellcome and BMGF.
- Proposals are required to allocate funds for staff time and travel to participate in the cross-project collaborative activities agreed upon by the governance committees.
- 1: Environmental change: Modeling to understand the effect of i) direct climate (e.g., temperature, rainfall, short/long-term climate change) and/or ii) indirect environmental (e.g., population movement, landscape change) factors on the spread and burden of the focus diseases (e.g., vector spread, behavior, ability to transmit disease), and implications for control.
- 2: Control interventions: Modeling to i) understand optimal use of existing and novel interventions (including combinations of interventions and assessment of resistance to interventions where relevant), and ii) identify barriers to implementation and uptake of interventions for the focus diseases.
- HIV and TB*: Understanding transmission modeling (including advancing understanding of sexual networks in HIV models and role of subclinical TB in TB models), support for portfolio optimization exercises (against impact and cost-effectiveness outcomes) at sub-national levels in support of NSPs, and incorporation of social and structural barriers in models. Consideration will also be given to exploration of multi-pathogen or multi-systems questions such as integration of HIV with STIs, family planning, or non-communicable diseases.
- Neglected tropical diseases (human African trypanosomiasis, visceral leishmaniasis, Guinea worm, lymphatic filariasis, onchocerciasis, schistosomiasis, soil-transmitted helminth, trachoma), addressing questions of how to target interventions, evaluate new and potential interventions, and assess risk of resurgence once an intervention is stopped.
- Malaria and climate: Exploring the intersection between climate change and malaria vector ecology and/or malaria epidemiology; this may also include modeling the expected impact of climate change on malaria intervention efficacy.
- Malaria control interventions: Understanding the optimal sub-national deployment of existing malaria control interventions, defining the ideal characteristics and deployment of novel products and product classes, assessing the cost-effectiveness of existing interventions in the content of a national strategic plan.
- Enteric and diarrheal diseases (diarrheal disease and etiologies, typhoid and other invasive Salmonellosis, and Hepatitis A and/or E): Understanding of disease transmission, local/regional/global burden of disease, pathogen burden forecasting, public health and economic impact of vaccination, integration of vaccination with other prevention/control strategies, or vaccine targeting for optimal impact.
- Primary health care (PHC) service delivery and management: Advancing modeling approaches to optimize health structures and inputs (financing, infrastructure, supplies, workforce, information systems) for improved service delivery that meets population health needs and leads to improved PHC system outcomes and impacts. Leverage available data to drive modeling approaches that support national, subnational, and/or facility decision-making to optimize available health inputs for equitable, high-quality PHC service readiness and delivery. This theme may be either a primary focus or conducted as a component of another thematic area, such as routine immunization, HIV, or malaria PHC services.
- Maternal and newborn health: Quantifying the epidemiology of conditions and intergenerational risk factors linking maternal and fetal/newborn health, assessing the potential impact of existing and emerging interventions, and exploring interactions within and across the health system at critical points of care (e.g., antenatal care, in-facility delivery, newborn intensive care units).
- Nutrition: Use of modeling to support decision-makers to set priorities for the most cost-effective means of improving micronutrient status. For example, estimating the contribution of vitamins and minerals from fortified foods (staples and condiments) towards improved nutrient intake.
- Immunization program planning and policy: Scope can include the full expanded program on immunization (EPI), however strongest consideration will be given to those focused on measles, HPV, and/or zero-dose communities (those fully unreached by routine immunization).
- The impact of climate and environmental change on population movement and impact on transmission/burden of diseases, such as HIV, TB, malaria, and enteric and diarrheal diseases, and planning of primary health care and immunization services.
- Address one or more of the thematic areas of focus described above.
- Include a well-articulated plan for collaboration with local and/or regional public-health decision- and/or policy-makers throughout the project. We encourage the inclusion of these individuals as co-investigators or collaborators on the proposal. Collaboration should be key to advancing the project's goals and creating impact that would be difficult to achieve without decision-/policy-maker participation.
- Articulate how the project will lead to impact over the term of the project and how those benefits will be sustained past the lifetime of the project. Sustainability plans should consider institutional, operational, and financial structures needed to ensure sustainability of the project and its constituent components.
- Clearly describe the datasets required to achieve the project's objectives, including whether they i) are already available and permission has been granted to use them for the project, ii) will be made available to the researchers during the project, and the expected timelines for this release, or iii) will be collected during the project, and the expected timelines for collection (where there are data gaps that need to be filled to inform models, inclusion of data collection within proposals will be considered if well justified). Where relevant, we encourage data partners (e.g. data scientists/collectors) to be collaborators or co-applicants on proposals.
- Demonstrate a commitment to open science including sharing data and modeling tools where possible and building re-usable assets that will have wider benefit.
- Promote a diverse, inclusive, and supportive research environment.
- The lead applicant and their institutions must be based in Africa. We particularly encourage applications from women-led organizations or projects led by women.

Un réseau doctoral Actions Marie Skłodowska-Curie financé par l'Union européenne Date de début : janvier 2024
La photosynthèse repose sur la récolte de la lumière du soleil et sur la transformation de l’énergie solaire en énergie chimique pour soutenir presque toute la vie sur terre. Une meilleure compréhension au niveau moléculaire de la photosynthèse, et en particulier du processus de collecte de la lumière, revêt une importance capitale.
Dans ce réseau doctoral, nous visons à former une nouvelle génération de scientifiques informatiques capables de traiter des problèmes complexes et interdisciplinaires tels que la récolte de lumière au niveau moléculaire à l'aide d'outils théoriques et informatiques. La nature interdisciplinaire du problème nécessite une connaissance combinée de la biologie, de la chimie, de la physique et de l'informatique afin de combiner des approches de pointe telles que les simulations de dynamique moléculaire, la chimie quantique, la spectroscopie théorique et l'apprentissage automatique dans des schémas multi-échelles.
Cette entreprise commune est une opportunité unique dans la recherche mais surtout aussi dans la formation de jeunes scientifiques au travail en équipe interdisciplinaire, à la formation aux méthodes et au calcul haute performance en milieu académique comme non académique.

Projets de recherche individuels
L'approche scientifique employée dans ce réseau doctoral présente l'avantage de combiner divers aspects de la modélisation informatique pour poursuivre les objectifs scientifiques du projet. Alors que les complexes de collecte de lumière sont de grands systèmes biologiques, les calculs d’état excité déterminent des connaissances détaillées en chimie quantique. La propagation de l’énergie d’excitation et la détermination de spectres non linéaires relèvent davantage du domaine de la (bio)physique. La plupart des calculs sont coûteux en numérique et, avec les techniques d'apprentissage automatique, le développement, l'adaptation et l'optimisation des codes numériques impliqués appartiennent au domaine de l'informatique.
Les méthodes employées exercent une forte complémentarité de telle sorte qu'à la fin, les doctorants acquerront une expertise dans des méthodologies individuelles mais acquerront également les connaissances nécessaires dans une vision holistique de la modélisation informatique, une caractéristique cruciale d'une nouvelle génération de scientifiques informatiques en biologie et biophysique. applications. Les simulations de dynamique moléculaire (Projets 2, 6, 10) alimenteront les méthodologies de la structure quantique et de la dynamique (des excitons) (Projets 1, 3, 8, 9), ces dernières étant nécessaires à la description spectroscopique des complexes captant la lumière (Projets 4, 5, 7). Malgré la complémentarité des méthodologies utilisées, les projets individuels peuvent également être largement indépendants les uns des autres, bien qu'ils ne développent toute leur puissance qu'en combinaison.

Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Doctoral Network funded by the European Union Starting date: January 2024
Photosynthesis relies on harvesting the sun light and on transforming the solar energy into chemical energy to sustain almost all life on earth. An enhanced molecular-level understanding of photosynthesis and particularly of the light-harvesting process is of key significance.
In this Doctoral Network we aim at training a new generation of computational scientists which can treat complex and interdisciplinary problems such as light harvesting on a molecular level using theoretical and computational tools. The interdisciplinary nature of the problem requires a combined knowledge from biology, chemistry, physics and computer science in order to combine state-of-the-art approaches like molecular dynamics simulations, quantum chemistry, theoretical spectroscopy and machine learning into multi-scale schemes.
This joint undertaking is a unique chance in research but especially also in training young scientists in interdisciplinary teamwork, method training and high-performance computing in academic as well as non-academic settings.

Individual research projects
The scientific approach employed in this Doctoral Network has the advantage of combining diverse aspects of computational modelling to pursue the scientific objectives of the project. While the light-harvesting complexes are large biological systems, the excited state calculations determine detailed quantum chemical knowledge. The propagation of the excitation energy and the determination of non-linear spectra are more based on the area of (bio)physics. Most of the computations are numerical expensive and together with machine learning techniques, the development, adaptation and optimization of the involved numerical codes belongs to the area of computer science.
The employed methods exert strong complementarity in a way that at the end the Doctoral Candidates will gain expertise in individual methodologies but also acquire the necessary insight into a holistic view of computational modelling, a crucial characteristic of a new generation of computational scientists in biological and biophysical applications. Molecular dynamics simulations (Projects 2, 6, 10) will give input to the quantum structure and (exciton) dynamics methodologies (Projects 1, 3, 8, 9) with the latter being necessary for the spectroscopic description of light-harvesting complexes (Projects 4, 5, 7). Despite the complementarity of the employed methodologies, the individual projects can stand also independently of each other to a large degree though they evolve their full power only in combination.

This is to be done in close relation with the PolyCIVIS’ Administrative Coordinator, the CIVIS Team based at the ULB, and the partner universities/colleagues across Europe and Africa.
- Ensure the necessary actions and activities are undertaken to achieve the milestones and deliverables listed as part of PolyCIVIS’ work package 3 (WP3). WP3, entitled “Polycrisis and policy” is to be jointly coordinated by ULB (BE) with the University of the Witwatersrand (ZA) and focusses on ensuring the policy impact of the vast expertise brought together across PolyCIVIS.
- Provide support, guidance and direction to all partners and WP leaders to ensure timely preparation and finalisation of milestones and deliverables (as per application).
The project
PolyCIVIS is a Jean Monnet Network on External Policy EU-Africa. It focuses on the polycrisis (the combination of several concurrent major societal crises that we currently face). It proposes to jostle against 4 factors impeding our capacity to resolve the polycrisis by actively working through and across 4 groups of boundaries:
- across the different crises (contemplating holistically how they interact),
- across time (combining the latest science with overlooked lessons of the past),
- across disciplinary clusters (the complexity of the polycrisis requires a fully integrated multidisciplinary response), and
- across territories and languages (at the local, the national, the regional, the continental, and the global levels, and across language barriers).
These 4 approaches will be applied to 3 fundamental dimensions: research, policy, and teaching. The proposed network offers to bring down the walls between the crises, between the scientific disciplines trying to understand them, and between the levels of policy response across nations and continents. PolyCIVIS offers to take the polycrisis out of the various silos which prevent a compelling systemic understanding of its overall complexity and the deployment of the most adequate policy response in Europe and in Africa. PolyCIVIS will be deeply embedded across the Euro-African interregional relationship, both locally and inter-regionally, and as such would be particularly well positioned to ensure the creation of durable instruments with a sustainable impact beyond the confines of both the consortium and the lifespan of the project.
The ULB-led PolyCIVIS Jean Monnet Network will be coordinated by a well-established actor in European studies and European scientifically informed policymaking located near the major EU institutions in Brussels, namely the IEE-ULB. It gathers 19 universities, 10 of which are situated in Africa (among which 8 in the sub-Saharan region 9), to collect, share, discuss, and structure a rich body of research findings and knowledge, teaching material, policy and governmental efforts, civil society initiatives, and real-life experience. The Network will function in close cooperation with CIVIS a European University Alliance that established strong ties with African universities from the onset. Indeed, out of the Jean Monnet Network’s 19 Universities, 9 are European Partners and 6 African partners within CIVIS. The Network foresees the creation of a set of outcomes tied to some of the lasting pan-European structures of CIVIS,
Work Environment
The Scientific Project Manager will be a member of an IEE and CIVIS team dedicated to the scientific coordination of PolyCIVIS.
The Institut d’études européennes (IEE) at the Université libre de Bruxelles (ULB) is a Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence. As such, it is recognised for its expertise in European Studies. The IEE-ULB carries out its own interdisciplinary research projects. At the same time, it promotes the work of its affiliated members on European issues within the associated research units and centres of its three partner faculties – the Faculty of Philosophy and Social Sciences, the Faculty of Law and Criminology and The Solvay Brussels School of Economics and Management. The IEE-ULB develops an interdisciplinary research agenda established by the Institute’s Research Committee. The current agenda is based on four research themes that are articulated around political sciences, law, economics, history, values and global interactions: Europe as an area of freedom, security & justice; Europe as an area of economic & social regulation; Europe as a community of norms & values; and Europe in the world.
CIVIS is an alliance of 11 leading research-intensive across Europe: Aix-Marseille Université, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Université libre de Bruxelles, University of Bucharest, University of Glasgow, University of Lausanne, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Sapienza Università di Roma, Paris Lodron University of Salzburg, Stockholm University, and Eberhard Karls Universität Tübingen. It was among the first alliances to be formed within the European Universities Initiative of the European Union in 2019.
The team managing CIVIS at ULB is a vibrant, multidisciplinary group of administrators and academics contributing to the development of an ambitious and innovative alliance of universities.

To achieve the current set of mandated renewable energy targets, the architecture of agricultural infrastructure such as greenhouses will need to become more sustainable and energy resilient. A key barrier preventing this transition is the low energy wavelength utilisation in the current greenhouse designs. Thus, a large proportion of the solar energy available for conversion remains inefficiently utilised and/or contributes to the unwanted production of elevated operating temperatures. Nanofluids, acting as spectral beam splitters (SBSs) can address these demands as they can be readily integrated into the cladding of existing agricultural greenhouses where they can function to partition the solar irradiance into its photosynthetic and heat-active spectral components. This partitioning can allow for better thermal management, increased photosynthetic response from crops, and thermal power generation by the modified greenhouse architecture. In this project, for the first time, the principles of plasmonic-enhanced luminescent down-shifting (PLDS) and nanofluids (NFs) will be combined into a single unique NF-based SBS which will be designed and tested for agricultural greenhouse applications. The energy utilisation and crop growth potential of the proposed SBS designs will be assessed by constructing a demonstrative model of the SBS-fitted greenhouse which will be evaluated under standardised testing conditions.
