Reducing the pressure of fish canneries on the marine environment with novel effluent treatment and ecosystem monitoring (LIFE SEACAN)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2015, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2019,
Background
Galicia (Spain) is highly dependent on fisheries, with fishing (including shellfish), aquaculture and related activities accounting for 10% of gross internal product. The region accounts for the highest production of transformed fish products in Europe and in some cases in the world (e.g. mussel canning).
The southern Galician estuaries are c ...

Dobutamine for NEOnatal CIRCulatory failure defined by novel biomarkers (NEO-CIRC)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2011, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2018,
Dobutamine and adrenaline are widely used as second line therapy for systemic hypotension in infants. Dopamine is currently the most widely used first line drug. In neonates, sustained hypotension may, and impaired organ perfusion will, cause brain injury and poor neurodevelopmental outcomes. All three catecholamines are currently used off-label and have different modes of action which may result ...

Developing predictors of the health benefits of exercise for individuals (META-PREDICT)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2011, Date de fin: 31 mai 2016,
Physical activity is a powerful lifestyle factor that on average reduces risk for development of diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Nevertheless, we have demonstrated that following supervised endurance exercise training, 20% of subjects show no change in fitness and 30% demonstrate no improvement in insulin sensitivity or worse-still an adverse response. Our concept is that by using molecular p ...

ASSET: Analysing and Striking the Sensitivities of Embryonal Tumours (ASSET)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2010, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2016,
Cancer is hallmarked by multiple genetic aberrations that lead to a functional derangement of cellular signalling networks. Embryonal tumours (ETs) comprising neuroblastoma, medulloblastoma and Ewing sarcoma, occur early in life, and thus may reveal pathogenetically relevant lesions clearer than adulthood tumours which carry passenger mutations accumulated during life. ASSET will exploit this fact ...

Evolution and Transfer of Antibiotic Resistance (EVOTAR)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2011, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2015,
Antibiotics are essential therapeutics in the treatment of bacterial infections. However, the indiscriminate use of antibiotics has led to the emergence of antibiotic resistant bacteria that pose a major threat to human health as options for treating infections by these bacteria have become limited. The evolution, emergence and spread ofantibiotic resistance genes are still only poorly understood ...

ConstRaint and Application driven Framework for Tailoring Embedded Real-time Systems (CRAFTERS)
Date du début: 1 juin 2012, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2015,
"ICT-based service and product innovation is curtailed by the growing vertical chain of dependence on poorly interoperable proprietary technologies in Europe. This issue was identified to have high impact on European innovation productivity by the Report of the Independent Expert Group on R&D and Innovation, commonly known as the Aho-report. The report demanded incentives for the convergence of sh ...

ROBOT FLEETS FOR HIGHLY EFFECTIVE AGRICULTURE AND FORESTRY MANAGEMENT (RHEA)
Date du début: 1 août 2010, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2014,
In the last two decades, a precise management of agricultural land has been made possible due to the availability of new technologies, including global positioning systems (GPS), geographic information systems (GIS), sensors, automation of agricultural machinery, and high resolution image sensing. As a result, the concept of Precision Agriculture has emerged as the management strategy that uses in ...

Characterization of a novel population of olfactory sensory neurons in the main olfactory epithelium (Mouseolf)
Date du début: 1 juin 2012, Date de fin: 31 mai 2014,
Sensory organs allow animals to extract information from their surroundings, and to build a representation of the outside world. A good representation of the environment is a prerequisite for an organism to respond to its peers, predators or prey, for example. To do this, various organisms rely heavily on their sense of smell. Indeed, olfaction is the most important sense for many animals, includi ...

Religious Diversity and Secular Models in Europe – Innovative Approaches to Law and Policy (RELIGARE)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2010, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2013,
RELIGARE starts from the idea of equality and how it is challenged by the increasing diversity of religions and other convictions that are transforming Europe. The EU’s expansion, together with important migration fluxes, partly explains this increasing diversity. A growing number of citizens, many of whom are new EU citizens, now hold beliefs and values different from the majority. One observes t ...

Quantum Engineering via Dissipation (QUEVADIS)
Date du début: 1 juin 2009, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2012,
Due to the ongoing miniaturization of devices, one of the central challenges of the 21st century's technology will be to handle quantum effects at the nanoscale. A first fundamental paradigm shift happened in the mid '90s when it was realized that quantum effects, which from the traditional point of view put fundamental limits on the possible miniaturization, could be exploited to do information t ...

High Throughput Proteomics Systems for Accelerated Profiling of Putative Plasma Biomarkers (PROACTIVE)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2008, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2011,
"The PROACTIVE consortium will through research and innovation develop the multiplexed proximity ligation assay into a high throughput protein detection and quantification technology along with novel data management and analysis tools. Hundreds of putative biomarkers of the plasma proteome can then be assayed with high sensitivity in minute sample volumes, far surpassing any current capabilities. ...

Creative Cross Innovation Tutor for product development
Date du début: 1 nov. 2009,
Creativity and innovation are crucial aspects of learning and personal development, though they are often overlooked in education due to the cross-disciplinary nature of their scope. To address this problem, creaCIT will deliver narrative driven education modules containing interactive media content, using state of the art web 2.0 technologies within the creaCIT Learning Environment (LE).The creaC ...
