Radiation Response Models for Personalised Radiation Oncology (RadResPRO)

Date du début: 1 juin 2014, Date de fin: 31 mai 2017,

Clinical radiotherapy for cancer has seen dramatic improvements in recent years, driven by developments in imaging and delivery techniques. However, the ability to deliver radiation is now out-stripping radiotherapy planning techniques. Despite the goal of radiotherapy – tumour control – being primarily biological, radiotherapy planning tools focus on a purely physical metric: dose. This has signi ...

GENomic evolution In Ecological Speciation (genies)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2015, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2016,

Speciation is the major process creating diversity of life on Earth. The proposed study will focus on the genomics of ecological speciation. Little is known about constraints on ecological speciation and the effects that the shift in the spatial arrangement of habitats has on the differentiation process. Goal of this project is to discover how past environmental changes effected differentiation in ...

Between a Rock and a Hard Place: context, function and choice of early metalworking tools on Europe’s Atlantic façade (HARDROCK)

Date du début: 1 juil. 2014, Date de fin: 30 juin 2016,

The aim of this project is to achieve a better understanding of both the technological and the social dimensions of early metalworking in Western Europe, through a systematic study of the toolkit employed by Chalcolithic and Bronze Age craftspeople. The study will consider both physical (tool morphology, use wear, material properties) and contextual data (site type, chronology, association with ot ...

Establishing new concepts and approaches for future vaccine development against parasitic pathogens of cattle (FLUKVAC)

Date du début: 1 mai 2014, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2016,

The negative impact of worm parasites on livestock animal health/welfare and on plant crop health seriously undermines food production systems and poses a direct threat to global food security. However, the use of chemical products to treat worms is not sustainable in the long term because of the continual emergence of drug-resistant parasites. Also, the presence of chemical and antibiotic residue ...

Electric field driven Magnetization switching in multiferroic Nanoislands (ELMAGNANO)

Date du début: 1 mai 2014, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2016,

Magnetoelectric (ME) multiferroics (MF) are prospective constituents for applications in micro- and nanoelectronics. Offering the possibility to switch magnetization (M) by electric field, their utilization would improve device performances. Though, at the state of the art several conditions hamper consideration for actual applications: mesoscopic devices with planar geometry, high WRITE voltages, ...

Risk assessment of inorganic arsenic in EU rice-based infant products and strategies to reduce exposure (RICENIC)

Date du début: 28 avr. 2014, Date de fin: 27 avr. 2016,

Inorganic arsenic (i-As) has been identified as a non-threshold carcinogen. Children are particularly susceptible to As exposure and early-life exposure may adversely affect long-term health, yet there are no EU standards for i-As or total (t-As), given that i-As in water is tightly regulated yet food sources dominate EU exposure. The levels of tolerable dietary exposure to i-As have been reviewed ...

"Cross-Layer Design of Adaptive, Reliable and Energy Efficient Systems" (DARE)

Date du début: 1 avr. 2012, Date de fin: 31 mars 2016,

"Though current day designs carry the promise of meeting the ever escalating demands of high performance/ quality requirements, they often exhibit large power consumption that limits the battery lifetime and generates excessive heat. Besides power consumption, process variations also pose major design concern with scaling of devices that may lead to erroneous computations and loss of stored data t ...
