Bisociation Networks for Creative Information Discovery (BISON)
Date du début: 1 juin 2008, Date de fin: 31 mai 2011,
Description
Humans are gifted at uncovering hidden similarities between concepts, even illogical ones. Computers aren't... yet. Thus uniquely human gift is the basis of our creativity and humour.
The concept of association is at the heart of many of today’s powerful ICT technologies such as inform...

BIg Speech data analytics for cONtact centres (BISON)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2015, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2017,
Contact centers (CC) are an important business for Europe: 35,000 contact centers generate 3.2 Million jobs (~1% of Europe’s active population). A typical CC produces a wealth of multilingual spoken data that is nowadays mined by humans (CC agents and supervisors) or by rudimentary technical means.BISON consortium plans to bring significant innovations in three areas: (1) basic speech data mining...

BrIdging Structural BiOlogy with Biological SyNthesis and Self Assembly to Reveal Key Processes in Living Systems (BISON)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2016, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2018,
BISON will enhance the collaborative framework of the Central European Institute of Technology of Masaryk University (CEITEC MU), which was created during 2011-14 by utilising synergies of Structural Funds and the Framework Programme, with its three internationally-leading counterparts in the fields of structural biology by extending expertise related trans-disciplinary areas. The goal is to stimu...

Bio-Inspired Self-Assembled Supramolecular Organic Nanostructures (BISON)
Date du début: 1 juin 2016, Date de fin: 31 mai 2021,
Peptide building blocks serve as very attractive bio-inspired elements in nanotechnology owing to their controlled self-assembly, inherent biocompatibility, chemical versatility, biological recognition abilities and facile synthesis. We have demonstrated the ability of remarkably simple aromatic peptides to form well-ordered nanostructures of exceptional physical properties. By taking inspiration ...

Diversification and development of the European bison population in northwestern Poland (LIFE_BISON_NW_PL)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2014, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2018,
Background
The European bison (Bison bonasus) is one of two extant species of bison, alongside the American bison. It once ranged throughout the lowlands of Europe, with the last wild populations, in Polandâs BiaÅowieża forest and the northern Caucasus, becoming extinct by 1927. They have since been reintroduced from captivity into several European co...

European Bison conservation in the Bialowieza Forest, Poland (BISON-LAND)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2006, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2010,
Background
The European bison (Bison bonasus), the largest land-based mammal in Europe, faces several threats: it is located in small and restricted areas, where the concentration of individuals is too high and food resources poor and declining; and these areas are fragmented and isolated, resulting in low genetic diversity and high susceptibility to dise...

Urgent actions for the recovery of European Bison populations in Romania (LIFE RE-Bison)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2016, Date de fin: 31 mars 2021,
Background
The European bison (Bison bonasus) or wisent, is Europeâs largest wild land mammal. It once roamed all across the continent. However, it was hunted to near extinction by 1927, when only 54 individuals remained, all in captivity. A slow but successful breeding and reintroduction effort in Central and Eastern Europe helped to re-establish a wil...

INTeracting effects of Abiotics and Carnivores shape herbivore Top-down effects (INTACT)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2010, Date de fin: 31 août 2013,
"Herbivore top-down effects and abiotic bottom-up effects are important in structuring forest systems. Recent studies showed that carnivores may shape indirectly herbivore effects. It is largely unknown how these factors interact in complete ecosystems. The project aims to understand how large canivores and abiotics shape herbivore top-down effects. The study area is one of the most complete fores...

Biodiversity of East-European and Siberian large mammals on the level of genetic variation of populations (BIOGEAST)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2011, Date de fin: 31 août 2016,
"The project, planned for 4 years, aims at building a network of research centres in Central and Eastern Europe and Siberia, and apply the state-of-art knowledge in genetics and macroecology to: (1) investigate phylogeography of 7 species of large mammals (wolf, Eurasian lynx, brown bear, moose, red deer, roe deer, and wild boar); (2) identify the locations of LGM refugia for large mammals in East...

Exploitation of Space Data for Innovative Helio- and Asteroseismology (SPACEINN)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2013, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2016,
Observations of oscillations on the solar and stellar surfaces have emerged as a unique and extremely powerful tool to gain information on, and understanding of, the processes in the Sun and stars, and the origin of the variability in the solar and stellar output.Through helio- and asteroseismology detailed inferences of the internal structure and rotation of the Sun, and extensive information on ...

Be green-help the nature
Date du début: 1 août 2016, Date de fin: 30 juin 2017,
Human society largely depends on the ecosystem but has imparted a tremendous burden upon it. In the past 50 years, the global biodiversity has been badly degraded due to human activities. If we do not start to conserve the biodiversity and use natural resources in a more sustainable manner, the survival of human society may be at risk. Based on these recognitions, society "Bison" decided to implem...

Biodiversity Protection in Forest Areas, Including Nature 2000 Areas - Promotion of Best Practices (BEST FOR BIODIVERSITY)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2014,
Background
Most forests in Poland are state-owned and play a key role in biodiversity protection. Appropriate conservation and management strategies are therefore required for forest areas that are included in the Natura 2000 network. Such strategies can help to ensure a long-term sustainable future for the valuable forest ecosystems.

Large Herbivores for Maintenance and Conservation of Coastal Heaths (Cuxhavener Küstenheiden)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2005, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2009,
Background
The coastal heaths and coppiced woodland near Cuxhaven are unique in Germany. This area by the North Sea is designated as a Natura 2000 site and borders a marine protected area, the National Park Niedersächsisches Wattenmeer. It is characterised by a mosaic of habitat types, such as dry heaths, sandy dunes, oak woodlands, raised mires and olig...

FOLLOW THE VIKINGS
Date du début: 1 juil. 2015, Date de fin: 30 juin 2019,
The Vikings had profound cultural effects on the societies they visited, transforming them as well as the Scandinavian homelands themselves. This project brings together a network of partners to broaden and develop the audience to Viking heritage and its sites across Europe. These partners are already members of the Destination Viking Association which will take forward the results of the projec...
