LUCA has been selected to participate in the “Common Dissemination Booster”, a pilot programme of the European Commission to boost dissemination capabilities and outreach. For this initiative LUCA has joined forces with two other projects, SOLUS (Smart optical and ultrasound diagnostics of breast cancer, led by POLIMI) and PAMMOTH (Photoacoustic/Ultrasound Mammoscopy for evaluating screening-detected abnormalities in the breast, led by the University of Twente).
All three projects in the cluster led by LUCA combine ultrasound and photonics to improve screening and diagnostics and therefore there is a significant overlap in theme, stakeholders and end-users. Work on the Common Dissemination Booster will start in late January 2018.
