Targeting challenges of active ageing: innovative integrated strategies for the healing of age-related hearing loss (TARGEAR)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2014, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2017,
"Worldwide, 278 million people are estimated to have moderate to profound hearing loss. Age-related hearing loss, also known as presbyacusis, affects approximately half of the population over 60 years old, making it the second most common cause of disability in older people. There is no restorative treatment for deafness but functional replacement by means of prosthesis. Therefore, prevention and ...

Network of European funding for Neuroscience research (ERA-NET NEURON II)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2015,
Research into the human brain and its diseases is one of the key challenges of our century, since among the many diseases affecting health, disorders of the brain are major causes for impaired quality of life. Despite some progress in understanding the molecular mechanisms of the various neurological and psychiatric disorders, research is far from being able to offer solutions how to conquer them ...

COmmunity-based Management of EnvironmenTal challenges in Latin America (COMET-LA)
Date du début: 15 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 14 janv. 2015,
Current development models are leading to unprecedented environmental challenges, chief amongst them, climate change. How to respond to these challenges are key research questions. Although they are global problems, their effects are felt locally, especially by the communities that traditionally base their livelihoods in those natural resources. The relevance of these problems at global level has ...

New feedstock and innovative transformation process for a more sustainable development and production of lignocellulosic ethanol (BABETHANOL)
Date du début: 1 mai 2009, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2013,
"Today, USA and Brazil have massively invested in ethanol mono-production, taking advantage of their respective native crops, intensive culture practices and large availability of land. These renewable biofuel production models cannot be applied to most of the industrial and emerging countries. For these countries with limited land use, one of the best solutions to comply with their objectives of ...

Polymeric composite materials with enhanced thermal conductivity properties for heat exchangers applications (THERMALCOND)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2010, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2012,
"The main goal of the project is to develop a new family of low cost polyolefin based components (sheets, pipes and fittings) to be used in the manufacture of flat-plate solar thermal collectors. These components are expected to be a viable alternative to current collector’s metallic components. However, due the current limitations of thermoplastics materials (low thermal conductivity and low resi ...

Converting Laminates into Energy and Aluminium for the benefit of Nature (CLEAN)
Date du début: 1 mai 2006, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2010,
Background
In Europe, more than a million tonnes of drink cartons are thrown away after use every year. More and more of these drink cartons are now being recovered in various types of collection schemes (29% in 2004). The 300 000 tonnes recovered are processed in the paper industry, where the paper fibres (210 000 tons) are fully recycled into new paper ...
