Quantifying Uncertainty in Integrated Catchment Studies (QUICS)
Date du début: 1 juin 2014, Date de fin: 31 mai 2018,
"The Water Framework Directive (WFD) is the most significant EU legislation concerning surface water management. Programs of Measures are required to ensure water bodies achieve a good ecological status. It is important to predict the impact of interventions on water quality. Man-made and natural processes control surface water quality, these are highly complex with a range of sources, transport a ...

MoorLIFE: Active blanket bog restoration in the South Pennine Moors (MoorLIFE)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2010, Date de fin: 31 août 2015,
Background
The South Pennine Moors are a special area of conservation (SAC) included in the Natura 2000 network. This site is important for active blanket bog and represents the most south-easterly occurrence of the habitat in Europe. It also forms part of two SPAs (Special Protection Areas according to the Birds Directive) whose Annex 1 species, includin ...

Multifunctional Nanotechnology for selective detection and Treatment of cancer (MULTIFUN)
Date du début: 13 juin 2011, Date de fin: 12 juin 2015,
The aim of the MultiFun consortium is to develop and validate a novel and minimally-invasive nanotechnology system to improve cancer diagnosis and treatment. MultiFun nanotechnology is based on multifunctionalised magnetic nanoparticles to selectively target and eliminate breast and pancreatic cancer (stem) cells. The improved magnetic features of the MultiFun magnetic nanoparticles will lead to p ...

TreatPolyQ – Industrial Academic Initial Training Network towards treatment of Polyglutamine Diseases (TREATPOLYQ)
Date du début: 1 mars 2011, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2015,
Protein aggregation is a hallmark of many late onset neurodegenerative disorders including Parkinson’s Disease (PD), Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), prion diseases as well as the group of polyglutamine diseases (polyQ). The aim of this proposal is to create a network of European partners bridging important basic mechanisms involved in proteinopathies, research of mod ...

Activation of vasculature associated stem cells and muscle stem cells for the repair and maintenance of muscle tissue (Endostem)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2010, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2014,
We propose to develop new strategies to mobilize skeletal muscle tissue-associated stem cells as a tool for efficient tissue repair. This will be combined with exploring novel approaches that limit tissue damage, and will focus on agents that modify muscle and muscle vasculature progenitor cells. These molecules include nitric oxide associated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, HMGB1, Cri ...

Identifying biomarkers of ageing using whole transcriptomic sequencing (EuroBATS)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2011, Date de fin: 30 juin 2014,
Ageing is a fundamental biological process that defines all aspects of life, yet the understanding of the basic biological interactions leading to ageing and how genetic and environmental variation contributes to this processes are still largely unknown. We propose to use the most up to date genomic and epidemiological methodologies to shed light in some of the key questions in ageing research. We ...

Optimization of stem cell therapy for clinical trials of degenerative skin and muscle diseases (OptiStem)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2009, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2013,
This proposal aims to develop and implement efficacy of clinical trials with adult, tissue stem cells for degenerative diseases of epithelia and skeletal muscle. Extraordinary progress in the understanding of several key features of stem cells has been rapidly translated into novel cell therapy protocols that have yielded positive results in pre-clinical models of genetic and acquired diseases and ...
