Ultracold Quantum Matter (UQUAM)

Date du début: 1 juil. 2013, Date de fin: 30 juin 2019,

Quantum mechanics is the basis of our understanding of the microscopic world. It is also central to the collective behaviour of matter at low temperatures, leading to unique properties that defy our classical intuition. The comprehension of such ‘quantum matter’ and the ability to master it using a newly developing set of ‘quantum technologies’ is not only of fundamental interest but holds the p ...

Targeting novel lipid pathways for treatment of cardiovascular disease (Athero-Flux)

Date du début: 1 sept. 2013, Date de fin: 31 août 2018,

Lipid lowering has significantly reduced cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality in EU. However, the aim to abolish CVD in EU is far from achieved and attempts to improve on the benefits of statins with new agents have not yet delivered new therapeutics. The Consortium Athero-Flux builds on FP7-generated large-scale lipidomics data showing that specific sphingolipids and in particular distinct cer ...
