Wearable Augmented Reality 3D Displays (Wear3D)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2014, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2018,

Wearable displays have advanced rapidly over the past few decades but they are limited in field-of-view due to optical constraints. Likewise, 3D displays have several technological and viewing discomfort limitations. These limitations result from the missing 3D depth cues in stereoscopic displays, which are essential for real 3D and for interactive augmented reality (AR) applications. Wear3D propo ...

Bioengineering prediction of three-dimensional vascular growth and remodeling in embryonic great-vessel development (VascularGrowth)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2013, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2018,

Globally 1 in 100 children are born with significant congenital heart defects (CHD), representing either new genetic mutations or epigenetic insults that alter cardiac morphogenesis in utero. Embryonic CV systems dynamically regulate structure and function over very short time periods throughout morphogenesis and that biomechanical loading conditions within the heart and great-vessels alter morpho ...

Risk-Sensitive Policy Making for Populations (RISK)

Date du début: 1 sept. 2013, Date de fin: 22 déc. 2017,

The interest in risk analysis and management has increased in recent years. In particular, acknowledging the prevalence of uncertainty in the consequences of the decisions, foreseeing disastrous outcomes, and taking precautions against them has gained great importance. The project described in this proposal aims at dealing with these concepts in the context of problems that involve populations. Sp ...

Identification of TRAIL sensitivity/resistance mechanisms and searching for novel TRAIL-sensitizing agents in Glioblastoma Multiforme (TRIGBM)

Date du début: 1 sept. 2013, Date de fin: 31 août 2017,

"The overall goal of this proposal is to explore the molecular basis of TRAIL-response in an aggressive brain cancer, Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM), and identify new reagents that will augment the TRAIL response of GBMs. Tumor necrosis factor related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL), emerged as a prime candidate for cancer treatment due to its tumor-specificity, however its clinical success is li ...

Real-time study of pattern formation dynamics in nonvariant eutectic solidification microstructures (NEUSOL)

Date du début: 1 mars 2013, Date de fin: 30 août 2017,

The present proposal concerns a multidisciplinary experimental research program in the field of solidification science with various impacts in nonlinear physics, metallurgy, materials science, and engineering. The problem studied is the formation dynamics of multiphase microstructures in eutectics, which are naturally grown composites that are generally solidification-processed. These microstructu ...

Chromatin modifiers in reprogramming (CMR)

Date du début: 1 mars 2013, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2017,

"Transcription factor-based reprogramming has enabled the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). IPSCs can be used in disease modelling and derivation of rejection-free mature cell types for cell-replacement therapies. Proof-of-principle studies show that a number of genetic, complex, and malignant diseases can benefit from such cell-based therapies. Despite their immense potential, ...

"Protein-integrated white light-emitting diodes for efficient, high-quality and biocompatible solid-state lighting" (PROTEINLED)

Date du début: 1 mars 2014, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2017,

"Green photonics aims to provide solutions that generate or save energy, reduce pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, produce environmentally sustainable outputs or enhance public health. Solid-state lighting (SSL), one of the most important green photonics technologies, offers 50% reduction in global electricity consumption for lighting that corresponds to the production by hundreds of coal pla ...

Internal Biofluid Dynamics in embryonic cardiovascular development, reduced order vascular growth models (CardioFluidMechanics)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 1 oct. 2016,

The aim of this research is to develop cardiovascular (CV) fluid mechanics tools that can analyze and predict the vascular changes due to the growth and remodeling process (GR) during early embryonic cardiac development. Mechanical flow-induced loading, in addition to the genetic factors, is an essential regulator of the GR feedback process. Fluid-induced vascular network changes will be computed ...

Large Deviations for Random Walks in Random Environments (LargeDevRWRE)

Date du début: 1 sept. 2012, Date de fin: 31 août 2016,

Random walk in random environment (RWRE) is one of the standard models in the study of random media. Originally motivated by molecular biology applications and subsequently used in the modeling of disordered systems, it has been a constant source of fascinating mathematical phenomena and challenging open problems over the last four decades. The theory of large deviations is a cornerstone of modern ...

School Opportunity Structure and Student Achievement in Comparative Perspective (School Opp Structure)

Date du début: 1 juil. 2012, Date de fin: 30 juin 2016,

Most of the low achieving students are of low socioeconomic background. Low educational profile of their parents leaves these students in the educational system without any proper guidance. Scholars have emphasized the role of relations with peers and teachers in compensating for this negative background characteristic. Indeed, supportive and trusting relationships with peers, teachers and adults ...

Mammalian Cell Surface Reorganization During Cell Division (MCS)

Date du début: 1 mars 2012, Date de fin: 29 févr. 2016,

"Cell division is a fundamental process by which all living things propagate. The cell surface is the only part of the cell that communicates with its environment, and is thus of critical importance for tissue development, homeostasis and disease. Almost all aspects of the cell’s interior undergo dramatic reorganization by the entry into mitosis and these changes have been extensively studied. In ...

A large-scale siRNA screen to study the role of kinases in Androgen Receptor activation (ARKSS)

Date du début: 1 mars 2012, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2015,

"Prostate cancer is one of most commonly diagnosed cancer in European men and a leading cause of cancer-related death. If the cancer is diagnosed early, it is frequently curable by surgery or radiotherapy. However, locally advanced, recurrent or metastatic prostate cancer is much more difficult to control. These patients are commonly treated with androgen withdrawal therapy that is designed to inh ...

Neuronal Alternative Splicing (NAS)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2011, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2014,

"Alternative splicing is the process by which multiple mRNA isoforms can be generated from one gene by differential usage of alternative exons in the mature mRNA. It is a major mechanism by which higher vertebrates generate functional complexity of their proteome. Approximately 95% of human genes are alternatively spliced and this process is especially abundant in the nervous system and crucial ...
