A new approach to sequence Earth history at high resolution over the past 66 million years (EARTHSEQUENCING)

Date du début: 1 avr. 2014, Date de fin: 31 mars 2019,

"One major challenge to be addressed by this proposal is to overcome fundamental obstacles to generate a first high-resolution and continuous fully integrated record of geological events, ages and durations(a ‘sequence of Earth history’) for the past 66 million years, anchored to the present, to extract properties of Earth’s and solar system orbital motion, and then to apply this time scale to sol ...

Siglecs as mediators of the pancreatic cellular crosstalk in diabetes (SIADIA)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2011, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2015,

The mechanisms of the immune and endocrine cell interaction within the islet and resulting β-cell death arehighly complex and largely unknown. To investigate the cellular crosstalk in the pancreas and how itsdisturbance leads to insufficient insulin production is important to understand the pathology of the disease. Thisis the major goal of this project.Activation of inflammation is not only a tri ...

Deep subsurface Archaea: carbon cycle, life strategies, and role in sedimentary ecosystems (DARCLIFE)

Date du début: 1 avr. 2010, Date de fin: 31 mars 2015,

Archaea are increasingly recognized as globally abundant organisms that mediate important processes controlling greenhouse gases and nutrients. Our latest work, published in PNAS and Nature, suggests that Archaea dominate the biomass in the subseafloor. Their unique ability to cope with extreme energy starvation appears to be a selecting factor. Marine sediments are of crucial importance to the re ...

Minimizing Defects in Micro-Manufacturing Applications (MIDEMMA)

Date du début: 1 nov. 2011, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2014,

Micro-manufacturing requires 'Zero-Defect' oriented approaches, both in large scale and in short-run production. Current quality control approaches, coming from macro-manufactring, are mainly based on post-process geometric control, which produces a large time lag between the defect generation and its detection, usually leading to large amount of defect parts (large scale) or wasted high value pro ...

Development of an automatic irrigation and fertilization system (OPTIFERT)

Date du début: 1 déc. 2011, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2013,

"Due to climate related changes, longer dry periods for European farmers and without irrigation the risk of a volatile harvests will rise, that is the reason for a tendency acrossEurope to irrigate fields. The need for innovative irrigated systems is to minimize water consumption and costs. Also in times of limited water the project will be lucrative.There are more and more increasing cost pressur ...

"In situ monitoring of oxygen depletion in hypoxic ecosystems of coastal and open seas, and land-locked water bodies" (HYPOX)

Date du début: 1 avr. 2009, Date de fin: 31 mars 2012,

"Hypoxic (low oxygen) conditions in aquatic ecosystems increase in number, duration and extent due to global warming and eutrophication. Global warming will lead to degassing of oxygen, increased stratification, reduced deep-water circulation and changes in wind patterns affecting transport and mixing. Projected increases in hypoxia (e.g. doubling of “dead zones”) are accompanied by enhanced emiss ...

BCIs with Rapid Automated Interfaces for Nonexperts (BRAIN)

Date du début: 1 sept. 2008, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2011,

BCIs with Rapid Automated Interfaces for Nonexperts (BRAIN) will develop BCIs into practical assistive and ICT tools to enhance inclusion for a range of different disabled users. Many of these people would otherwise have little or no opportunity to interact with loved ones, carers, home appliances and assistive devices, or personal computer and internet technologies. BRAIN will improve BCI reliabi ...

Fish Population Structure and Traceability (FishPopTrace)

Date du début: 1 mars 2008, Date de fin: 31 mai 2011,

Although exploited fishes have traditionally been managed on a geographic basis, for conservation purposes they should be managed at the population level: the extent and dynamics of population structuring underlies resilience and sustainability. More effective enforcement and conservation demands a focus on identification and monitoring of wild fish populations and traceability of products. FishPo ...

Neurorehabilitation using Brain-Computer Interface (RehaBCI)

Date du début: 1 mars 2008, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2011,

Cerebrovascular accident (stroke) is one of the most common causes of movement disability, and is likely to become an even greater problem as EU citizens become elderly. Most patients never regain effective control of upper limbs damaged by stroke. Brain computer interface (BCI) systems allow severely disabled users to convey information via brain activity alone. Despite major developments in BCI ...

Date du début: 1 mars 2008, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2010,

DEMHOW will investigate links between demographic change and housing wealth. Whereas those who rent their homes may have no housing wealth at all, for many older Europeans - perhaps 75% of the total - housing is their single largest item of wealth But, increasing numbers do not have children to whom their wealth might be bequeathed. The potential of housing assets is that they offer: older ...

Biogeochemistry of New Zealand Cretaceous-Cenozoic hydrocarbon-seeps (NZGeobiology)

Date du début: 1 août 2008, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2010,

Hydrocarbons accumulate in the Earth’s geosphere and can be released into the oceans and atmosphere, driven by geologic and tectonic events. On marine continental margins, faulting and over-pressured sedimentary pore-fluids can initiate fluid movement from depth, to manifest as subsurface fluid migration (plumbing) and seafloor hydrocarbon seepages or gas hydrates. Seeps and gas hydrates serve as ...

4WARD - Architecture and Design for the Future Internet (4WARD)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2008, Date de fin: 30 juin 2010,

Today's network architectures are stifling innovation, restricting it mostly to the application level while the need for structural change is increasingly evident. The absence of adequate facilities to design, optimize and interoperate new networks currently forces a convergence to an architecture that is suboptimal for many applications and that cannot support innovations within itself, the Inter ...
