Technical Summary
Europeans have low compliance with dietary recommendations and guidelines, resulting in poor health and unhealthy ageing. Public health campaigns hardly improve this compliance. Providing personalised diet and lifestyle information has been shown to be more effective at changing behaviour compared to general information. A new paradigm has emerged with personal dietary advice based on personal preference, genotype and phenotype, health status and assessment as well as motivational goals. QuaLiFY will valorise and integrate the concepts, tools and infrastructures developed by the FP6- and FP7-funded projects EuroFIR, NuGO and EURRECA, EUROGENE and Food4Me. By combining these activities, QuaLiFY will build a concerted platform on which European SMEs can mature these research developments. A complementary group of SMEs involved in (1) food composition tables and food intake quantification, (2) self-quantification technologies in genotype, phenotype and nutritional status, (3) data handling and personal advice IT tools, (4) production and provision of Personalised dietary advice services and (5) innovative business development will join forces. QuaLiFY will create a solid basis to launch commercially viable products and services in the area of personalised dietary advice by providing a knowledge infrastructure and harmonised open innovation protocols. Three main areas of implementation have been chosen, based on the interaction between dieticians and clients: obese children, eating disorders and type 2 (pre-) diabetics. Furthermore, all resulting QuaLiFY products and services will be tested, integrated and optimised for consumer use in a field lab setting, the ‘Nutrition Researcher Cohort’. Last, but not least, QuaLiFY will prepare a business plan and perform a social and economic life-cycle assessment in line with the International Reference Life Cycle Data System (ILCD) handbook.

Quisper Ontology Learning from Personalized Dietary Web Services
| Description | Europeans have low compliance to dietary guidelines and recommendations, resulting in poor health and unhealthy ageing with public health campaigns not having the desired effects to improve the situation. A need for evidence-based tools and mechanisms to achieve sustainable changes in consumer attitude and behaviour concerning both food purchasing and eating habits was recognised. Consequently, better informed consumers will inevitably make better dietary choices based on personal preference, health status and assessment and motivational goals. Solutions for the provision of personalised dietary advice and self-quantification services available within the QuaLiFY Consortium including non-invasive and minimally invasive quantification methods, available outside the consortium, were identified. Selected tools were assessed by nutritional researchers and the lessons learned were used to further improve the methods and develop new services, some of which were directly integrated into the QuaLiFY Server Platform, the main outcome of the project, which was subsequently named Quisper platform. The wide variety of data available enables many different types of services, including provision of personalized dietary advice, food tracking services, menu planners and health assistants. It is feasible to use the server platform so that companies can extend the personalised nutrition services they currently offer. The beta version of Quisper was implemented and launched through the website http://quisper.eu. Quisper integrated several webservices for accessing food- and nutrition-related data and knowledge rules for personalized dietary advice. As data and information is coming from different sources, we have developed a methodology to harmonize the Quisper distributed knowledge. Quisper will serve as an important hub of the design of the new RICHFIELDS infrastructure on Food and Health Consumer Behaviour and Lifestyle that enables the EU research community to collate, connect and share innovative and existing research data on a common data-platform, as well as the wider Food and Health RI framework. Three field studies, each of them targeting a specific consumer / patient group (type 2 diabetics, overweight children and adolescents with eating disorders) were conducted. An integrated and personalized dietary advice service was designed and provided to each of them, and both health improvement parameters as well as compliance aspects were quantified, providing valuable input to improve personalised dietary advice and self-quantification tools and services. The Quisper Association was initially established in the Netherlands but moved to Belgium where more funding opportunities and support could be realised. |
| Exploitation Route | Solutions for the provision of personalised dietary advice and self-quantification services available within the QuaLiFY Consortium and also non-invasive and minimally invasive quantification methods available outside the consortium were identified. Selected tools were assessed by nutritional researchers and the lessons learned were used to further improve the methods and develop new services, some of which were directly integrated into the QuaLiFY Server Platform, the main outcome of the project, which was subsequently named Quisper. The wide variety of data available enables many different types of services, including provision of personalized dietary advice, food tracking services, menu planners and health assistants. It is feasible to use the server platform so that companies can extend the personalised nutrition services they currently offer. Additional funding for the Quisper initiative was awarded via a EIT-Food grant in 2018 and 2019. The funding has been used to further develop the Quisper platform and community. The Quisper Server Platform (QSP) was migrated to the Amazon API Gateway during 2018. Six services are currently connected, provided by project partners and external SMEs, and two have been tested in small use case studies with consumers. The Quisper Scientific Advisory Board has been established and it will assess the scientific quality of the initial services, and develop an evaluation framework, in 2020. |

| Description | One of the key goals of the project, apart from developing and testing in real life a joint personalised nutrition offering, was to assure that these offerings would continue to be available after the project was completed. Hence a specific work package explored business model concepts that could deliver these different offerings to potential end-users and assessed possible structures for partners to work together. In parallel, to the business development, the project has disseminated widely to key user and stakeholder groups including dieticians and future clients. The project thus successfully identified an acceptable business model concept for a digital platform through which data and knowledge rules can be offered and accessed by end-users to develop personalised nutrition services. In 2018 and 2019, the Quisper initiative was funded via an EIT-Food innovation grant. During this project, the Quisper Association ASBL was established in Brussels, and the Quisper Server Platform was increased from TRL5 to TRL7, as well as being migrated to the Amazon API Gateway. A total of six personalised nutrition services are now connected to the QSP and available to users. The project has worked to establish a personalised nutrition community via events such as symposia and workshops, targeting potential SME clients. Five personalised nutrition experts have been recruited to the Quisper Scientific Advisory Board (QuiSAB), which will work in 2020 to evaluate the personalised nutrition offerings available. The ultimate aim of Quisper remains the provision of high quality scientifically valid personalised nutrition services, offered by third party clients via the QSP. Quisper ASBL will continue to grow and develop the platform, whilst working to establish a monetization and membership scheme to enable sustainability - innovative business models, like those developed in Quisper, may become increasingly important in future research infrastructure initiatives. Whilst the commercialisation of Quisper is under development, the Association will be supported via small grants and participation in initiatives such as FNS-Cloud (H2020) and FNH-RI. The Quisper community has been developed via face-to-face interactions with SME clients and via a personalised nutrition symposium and SME workshop in 2019. Quisper will also collaborate with the FNS-Cloud project and the FNH-RI initiative as an important and innovative infrastructure in personalised nutrition. The development of the QSP, and the subsequent improvement and validation of personalised nutrition services will ultimately benefit the consumer and help to build trust in this area. |

Their stand was dedicated to the Quisper Project (http://quisper.eu/), which offers personalised nutrition advice based on sound scientific evidence through a single portal. This forum was oriented towards the implementation of new technologies for healthy ageing. Therefore, Quisper as a new and innovative platform focused on personalised nutrition was introduced for the first time at this event. Nutrition needs, and requirements change throughout the life span, that is why a personalised dietary advice could be of major help for elderly people to remain healthy for longer or to deal with an existing health condition. The intention was to present Quisper as an alternative for all those elderly patients who required a more personalised advice and to identify other projects/partners that would like to work together in the development and release of the platform. |
