3to4: Converting C3 to C4 photosynthesis for sustainable agriculture (3TO4)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2016,
Most plants use the C3 pathway of photosynthesis that is compromised by gross inefficiencies in CO2 fixation. However, some plants use a super-charged photosynthetic mechanism called C4 photosynthesis. The C4 pathway is used by the most productive vegetation and crops on Earth. In addition to faster photosynthesis, C4 plants demand less water and less nitrogen. Overall, our aim is to introduce the ...

The Human Brain Project (HBP)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2013, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2016,
Understanding the human brain is one of the greatest challenges facing 21st century science. If we can rise to the challenge, we can gain profound insights into what makes us human, develop new treatments for brain diseases and build revolutionary new computing technologies. Today, for the first time, modern ICT has brought these goals within sight. The goal of the Human Brain Project, part of the ...

VPH based predictive model for oral cancer reoccurrence in the clinical practice (OraMod)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2013, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2016,
Description
OraMod project: Helping clinicians predict oral cavity cancer reoccurrenceGenomic markers and computer models can predict the reoccurance of oral cavity cancer. But these innovative diagnostic technologies are currently stuck in labs and are not being used by clinicians in hospitals. The EU-funded project OraMod, led by the Un ...

Formation of a giant tungsten deposit: Metal sources and fluid evolution at Panasqueira, Portugal (TUNGSTEN)
Date du début: 1 mars 2014, Date de fin: 29 févr. 2016,
Tungsten is a strategic resource crucial to a wide range of industries due to its unique physical properties, especially for the production of alloys and carbides. World tungsten supply is currently somewhat volatile owing to the market domination by a single nation (China), as well as recently imposed export quotas that contribute to market instability. The disappearance of EU tungsten would resu ...

A new equation of state for solutes in high-temperature fluids (FLUIDEQ)
Date du début: 1 août 2013, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2015,
"Hot aqueous fluids are key agents in geological transport processes in the Earth’s crust, redistributing geothermal heat as well as dissolved components. Thereby, they become alternative energy resources, create valuable mineral deposit and fundamentally control the composition of the oceans. To quantitatively understand these geochemical processes requires an accurate method to evaluate the ther ...

Hydrothermal evolution of cassiterite-sulfide veins - insights from laser-ablation microanalysis of melt and fluid inclusions in the host-rocks and ores of the San Rafael deposit, SE Peru (TINFINDER)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2007, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2009,
Granite-related hydrothermal veins typically have high ore grades and tonnages and thus are an excellent target in the search for such commodities as tin, tungsten, silver, copper and many other metals.Although the geology of these deposits is well described, a considerable debate persists about key issues related to their genesis, such as the timing of fluid separation from crystallizing magmas, ...
