Targeting cancer using evolutionary refined pathogen derived antigens (MalOnco)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2014, Date de fin: 31 août 2019,
We have recently discovered a malaria protein which has shown a high potential in cancer treatment. In pregnant women, malaria infected red blood cells express a protein that binds to a distinct carbohydrate structure present only on cells of the maternal side of the placental circulation, but not elsewhere in the vasculature. This highly evolved binding system enables the parasite to evade cleara ...

The calm before the storm: Pre-stellar cores as Astrophysical Laboratories (PALs)
Date du début: 1 mars 2013, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2018,
"Stars like our Sun and planets like our Earth form in dense regions within interstellar molecular clouds, called pre-stellar cores (PSCs). PSCs provide the initial conditions in the process of star and planet formation, but large uncertainties exist concerning basic astrophysical processes and parameters, such as surface chemistry, the cosmic-ray ionization rate, the H2 ortho-to-para ratio, the ...

Systems Biology to Identify Molecular Targets for Vascular Disease Treatment (SYSVASC)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2014, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2018,
Asymptomatic vascular damage accumulates for years before patients are identified and subjected to therapeutic measures. The limited knowledge on early vascular disease pathophysiology is reflected in the lack of therapeutic options. SysVasc aims to overcome this limitation by mounting a comprehensive systems medicine approach to elucidate pathological mechanisms, which will yield molecular target ...

Promoting a functional and comparative understanding of the conifer genome- implementing applied aspects for more productive and adapted forests (PROCOGEN)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2015,
In the midst of a climatic change scenario, the genetics of adaptive response in conifers becomes essential to ensure a sustainable management of genetic resources and an effective breeding. Conifers are the target of major tree breeding efforts worldwide. Advances in molecular technologies, such as next-generation DNA sequencing technologies, could have an enormous impact on the rate of progres ...

Internet-based Structural Health Monitoring System (ISMS)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2010, Date de fin: 31 août 2014,
"Structural health monitoring (SHM) and non-intrusive damage detection techniques have become important research topics - motivated by the potential life-safety and very large potential economic impact of the technologies with respect to their earthquake/ disaster mitigation potential and their role as key enabling technology of condition-based maintenance practices. The potential to save thousand ...

New Multi-HAzard and MulTi-RIsK Assessment MethodS for Europe (MATRIX)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2010, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2013,
Across Europe, people suffer losses not just from single hazards, but also from multiple events in combination. In both their occurrence and their consequences, different hazards are often causally related. Classes of interactions include triggered events, cascade effects, and rapid increases of vulnerability during successive hazards. Effective and efficient risk reduction, therefore, often needs ...

Industrial Crops producing added value Oils for Novel chemicals (ICON)
Date du début: 1 mars 2008, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2013,
Replacing fossil oil with renewable resources is perhaps the most urgent need and the most challenging task that human society faces today. Cracking fossil hydrocarbons and building the desired chemicals with advanced organic chemistry usually requires many times more energy than is contained in the final product. Thus, using plant material in the chemical industry does not only replace the fossil ...
