Summary
The European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing (EIP on AHA) established 74 Reference Sites. These sites collaborate through the Reference Site Collaborative Network (RSCN) to scale innovative health and care solutions across Europe.
Area of Science:
- Gerontology and Public Health
- Health Policy and Management
Background:
- The European Commission recognized 74 Reference Sites in 2016 for their commitment to active and healthy ageing innovations.
- The Reference Site Collaborative Network (RSCN) unites these Reference Sites and Candidate Sites.
Purpose of the Study:
- To establish a collaborative forum for sharing best practices and solutions in health and care.
- To support the scaling up of innovative strategies and service delivery models for active and healthy ageing.
- To position the RSCN as the primary representative body for EIP on AHA Reference Sites to the EU Commission.
Main Methods:
- Network formation and collaborative activities among European Reference Sites.
- Facilitation of knowledge exchange and transfer of innovative solutions.
- Strategic alignment with the goals of the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing (EIP on AHA).
Main Results:
- A network of 74 European Reference Sites actively engaged in collaboration.
- A platform for sharing and scaling up successful health and care strategies and policies.
- Contribution to improved health outcomes, economic growth, and job creation in Europe.
Conclusions:
- The RSCN serves as a vital platform for advancing active and healthy ageing initiatives across Europe.
- Collaboration and knowledge sharing are key to scaling innovative health and care solutions effectively.
- The network supports the EIP on AHA's objectives of enhancing citizen well-being and fostering sustainable economic development.

02:26Protein Networks
4.5K
An organism can have thousands of different proteins, and these proteins must cooperate to ensure the health of an organism. Proteins bind to other proteins and form complexes to carry out their functions. Many proteins interact with multiple other proteins creating a complex network of protein interactions.
These interactions can be represented through maps depicting protein-protein interaction networks, represented as nodes and edges. Nodes are circles that are representative of a protein,...

8.6K
Newton’s first law is usually considered to be a statement about reference frames. It provides a method for identifying a special type of reference frame: the inertial reference frame. In principle, we can make the net force on a body zero. If its velocity relative to a given frame is constant, then that frame is said to be inertial. So, by definition, an inertial reference frame is a reference frame where Newton's first law holds valid. Newton's first law applies to objects with...

01:27Non-inertial Frames of Reference
7.1K
A reference frame accelerating or decelerating relative to an inertial frame is a non-inertial frame. To help understand this, consider what taking off in an airplane, turning a corner in a car, riding a merry-go-round, and the circular motion of a tropical cyclone all have in common. All these systems are accelerating, decelerating, or rotating relative to the Earth; hence, they all are non-inertial frames. All these systems exhibit inertial forces, which merely seem to arise from motion,...

Network covalent solids contain a three-dimensional network of covalently bonded atoms as found in the crystal structures of nonmetals like diamond, graphite, silicon, and some covalent compounds, such as silicon dioxide (sand) and silicon carbide (carborundum, the abrasive on sandpaper). Many minerals have networks of covalent bonds.
To break or to melt a covalent network solid, covalent bonds must be broken. Because covalent bonds are relatively strong, covalent network solids are typically...
