Vaccination In Atherosclerosis (VIA)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2013, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2018,
"Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is still a leading cause of death in the European Union (EU) accounting for nearly half of all deaths in Europe (48%). In addition, CVD complications lead to a vast number of hospitalizations and thus to a great burden of health care costs in the EU. Atherosclerosis and its final complication, plaque rupture and subsequent infarct in heart or brain, is the main underl ...

The Human Brain Project (HBP)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2013, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2016,
Understanding the human brain is one of the greatest challenges facing 21st century science. If we can rise to the challenge, we can gain profound insights into what makes us human, develop new treatments for brain diseases and build revolutionary new computing technologies. Today, for the first time, modern ICT has brought these goals within sight. The goal of the Human Brain Project, part of the ...

A Toolbox for Offshore Wind Farm Cluster Design (CLUSTERDESIGN)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2011, Date de fin: 31 mai 2016,
Today, an offshore wind farm is merely a collection of wind turbines where the components of an offshore wind farm cluster are optimized but not the overall cluster. In the future, the best-performing wind farms will be designed with an integrated approach. For this purpose, design tools for offshore wind farm clusters must then yield for the overall optimum. This means they must integrate the clu ...

Rapid deployable kits as seeds for self-recovery (S(P)EEDKITS)
Date du début: 1 mars 2012, Date de fin: 29 févr. 2016,
Humanitarian organisations like the Red Cross have sleeping emergency response units (ERU), which start acting immediately after disaster strikes. Each ERU has a specific function, e.g. medical care, sanitation, energy provision, or water supply.Current equipment solutions will be scanned and bottlenecks with respect to large volumes and/or heavy weight will be identified. Then, novel materials an ...

Detection of endpoints and biomarkers of repeated dose toxicity using in vitro systems (DETECTIVE)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2011, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2015,
"Assessment of repeated dose toxicity is a standard requirement in human safety evaluation and relies on animal testing as no alternatives are currently accepted for regulatory purposes. An integrated research strategy for the replacement of animal tests needs to comprise the development of biomarkers of long-term toxicity in human target cells. To this aim, the DETECTIVE project will set up a scr ...

User-driven Development of Statistical Methods for Experimental Planning, Data Gathering, and Integrative Analysis of Next Generation Sequencing, Proteomics and Metabolomics data (STATegra)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2012, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2015,
Users of NGS technologies, producing large and numerous distinct types of omics data, demands statistical methods to combat data and knowledge fragmentation and inappropriate procedures for data analysis. Yet, the current a gap between the available tools for analysis of a single omics data-type versus the requirement of biomedical scientists to understand the integrated results derived from sever ...

Latin Amercian Chinese European Galaxy Formation Network (LACEGAL)
Date du début: 15 mai 2011, Date de fin: 14 mai 2015,
The focus in cosmology is shifting from the determination of the basic cosmological parameters to developing an understanding of how galaxies formed. Progress in this field has been driven by a combination of computer simulation and observational breakthroughs. Over the next few years, groundbreaking new facilities will come online and will provide data of unprecedented quality with which to test ...

Sub-seabed CO2 Storage: Impact on Marine Ecosystems (ECO2) (ECO2)
Date du début: 1 mai 2011, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2015,
The ECO2 project sets out to assess the risks associated with the storage of CO2 below the seabed. Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is regarded as a key technology for the reduction of CO2 emissions from power plants and other sources at the European and international level. The EU will hence support a selected portfolio of demonstration projects to promote, at industrial scale, the implementation ...

Accelerated development and prototyping of nano-technology-based high-efficiency thin-film silicon solar modules (Fast Track)
Date du début: 1 mars 2012, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2015,
In recent years, the effort in thin-film silicon (TFSi) was made at solving industrialization issues. In 2010, several companies demonstrated 10% stable modules (> 1 m²). The major “bricks” for efficient production are now in place. Next challenges are linked to the fact that TFSi multi-junction devices, allowing for higher efficiency, are complex devices, in which the substrate geometry and each ...

Rational design of plant systems for sustainable generation of value-added industrial products (SmartCell)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2009, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2013,
Plants sustainably produce low levels of secondary metabolites of high industrial value. However, they are often too complex to be economically manufactured by chemical synthesis. Advanced metabolic engineering and exploitation of plants as Green Factories has been prevented due to poorly understood metabolic pathways in plants and the regulation thereof. SmartCell brings together 14 leading Europ ...

Protective Responsive Outer Shell for People in Industrial Environments (Prospie)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2009, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2012,
In the Prospie project a new generation of work wear will be developed and produced. Special features of the work wear will be a dynamic cooling system in order to prevent workers from hyperthermia, smart interfaces for measuring essential physical parameters of workers and their work place and the data processing resulting in the swift identification of (potential) dangerous situations. The data ...
