PIVOTAL ASSESSMENT OF THE EFFECTS OF BIOACTIVES ON HEALTH AND WELLBEING. FROM HUMAN GENOMA TO FOOD INDUSTRY - PATHWAY (PATHWAY-27)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2013, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2018,
Scientific understanding of the role and mechanisms of bioactives is fragmented. Research often addresses the theoretical possibility of health improvement effects rather than their real, practical use for everyday diets. Bioactives cannot be considered as discrete chemical compounds and research must focus on bioactive-enriched foods (BEF), if consumer demands for foods delivering appropriate hea ...

AUTONOMOUS CLOUD-COMPUTING VINEYARD ROBOT TO OPTIMISE YIELD MANAGEMENT AND WINE QUALITY (VINBOT)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2014, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2017,
VinBot responds to a need to boost the quality of European wines by implementing precision viticulture (PV) tools in the face of serious market threats worldwide and structural shortcomings within the EU wine sector. Wine producer associations have no control over yield management throughout their members’ vineyards, which leads to reduced quality wine at the association level. At the vineyard lev ...

Dengue research Framework for Resisting Epidemics in Europe (DENFREE)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2016,
"WHO estimates that one of the main consequences of global warming will be an increased burden of vector-borne diseases. Among these, dengue appears to be particularly problematic, with tens of millions of cases of dengue fever estimated to occur annually, including up to 500,000 cases of the life-threatening dengue hemorrhagic fever/dengue shock syndrome. In recent years, the global burden of den ...

Fixed Dose Combination drugs for Secondary Cardiovascular Prevention (FOCUS)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2010, Date de fin: 30 juin 2014,
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the leading cause of death worldwide, and their incidence is increasing sharply in developing countries. Two insufficiently addressed factors contribute to increased morbidity and mortality, threatening the effectiveness of any health system: poor patient adherence to treatment, and limited access to medication in resource-poor countries and regions. To address th ...

When it comes to supporting older people living in the community, today’s reality is characterised by fragmentation of service provision resulting in disjointed and patchy care and support. The quest for more integrated care is anything but new. Only recently, however, policy and practice are beginning to fully recognise that fra ...

Resource- and Cost-effective integration of renewables in existing high-rise buildings (Cost-Effective)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2008, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2012,
The use of renewable energy in the building sector is today dominated by the application of solar domestic hot water and PV systems in single-family houses. In order to significantly increase the use of renewable energy in the building sector, concepts have to be developed for large buildings. In these buildings high fractions of the energy demand can only be met with renewable energy sources, whe ...

Support action for innovation driven clusters in construction. Regional approaches, multi-stakeholder engagement and cross regional co-operation (REG CON)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2008, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2010,
The driving idea of REG CON is the advancement of the concept of “R&D based clustering” across regions of Europe with a thematic focus on construction. This sector is both dynamic in creation of growth and employment [~7% of national employment/GDP, ~14% when add design and materials], but relatively backward in absorbing innovation. The Strategic Research Agenda prepared by European Construction ...
