Nanomedicine for target-specific imaging and treatment of atherosclerosis: development and initial clinical feasibility (NanoAthero)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2013, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2018,
NanoAthero aims to have demonstration of initial clinical feasibility of nanosystems for targeted imaging and treatment of advanced atherosclerotic disease in humans. The nanosystems are assemblies of following components: nanocarrier, targeting, imaging agent/drug. They have proven safety records, and strong preliminary in vitro and in vivo proofs of efficacy are available. Partners have patented ...

Volcanic unrest in Europe and Latin America: Phenomenology, eruption precursors, hazard forecast, and risk mitigation (VUELCO)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2011, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2015,
Our knowledge of the causative links between subsurface processes, resulting unrest signals and imminent eruption is, today, wholly inadequate to deal effectively with crises of volcanic unrest. The VUELCO project consortium has come together for a multi-disciplinary attack on the origin, nature and significance of volcanic unrest from the scientific contributions generated by collaboration of ten ...

Embryonic Stem cell-based Novel Alternative Testing Strategies (ESNATS)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2008, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2013,
"ESNATS aims at developing a novel toxicity test platform based on embryonic stem cells (ESC), especially human ESC (hESC), to accelerate drug development, reduce R&D costs and propose a powerful alternative to animal tests (3 Rs). ESNATS will address current drug-testing shortcomings: - testing takes place late in the development cycle - animal test systems bear the risk of non-prediction due to ...

Ethics of enhancement technology (ETHENTECH)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2009, Date de fin: 30 juin 2012,
The main objective of this ETHENTECH project is to take substantially further forward both the ethical evaluation and public discussion of two important emerging fields of micro- and nanobiotechnology which pose very significant ethical and societal issues of public concern: neurological implants and the potential for human functional enhancement. Neural implants are a major new class of medical d ...

Experimental verification of the mechanisms of shock waves acceleration of volcanic particles toward metal targets: a tool to understand shock waves hazard in explosive volcanic eruptions (SPAEx)
Date du début: 15 avr. 2009, Date de fin: 14 avr. 2012,
Despite shock waves commonly occur during explosive volcanic eruptions, a number of issues concerning their generation and propagation is still object of debate in the scientific community and the associated hazard is downplayed in the risk assessment of active volcanic areas. Micrometric impact craters produced by volcanic ash particles were found on a steel basketball pole in one of the villages ...

Experimental reconstruction of volcanic explosions: understanding the fragmentation energy balance and seismic signals (VOLCEXPLOSEIS)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2009, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2011,
"Volcanic explosions can have devastating effects on their surrounding area and communtiies, so it is important to improve our understanding of the controls on how energetic volcanic explosions are and the interpretation of the seismic signals that they generate. Volcanic explosions are driven by ascent and depressurisation of magma, which result in the exsolution of large volumes of gas. If the g ...
