Utility of omic-based biomarkers in characterizing older individuals at risk for frailty, its progression to disability and general consequences to health and well-being - The FRAILOMIC Initiative (FRAILOMIC)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2017,

The forecasted increase in the number of older people for this century will be accompanied by an increase of those with disabilities. Disability is usually preceded by a condition named frailty that encompasses changes associated with ageing, life styles and chronic diseases. To detect and intervene on it is of outstanding importance to prevent disability, as recovery from disability is unlikely. ...

European-COMPARative Effectiveness research on online Depression (E-COMPARED)

Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

In 2010, 30 million Europeans were affected by depression and their number is still growing. Half of Europeans in need of mental care for depression do not have access to care services, do not always receive evidence-based treatments, are confronted with long waiting lists or high care expenditures. Internet-based treatment has the potential to addresses the drawbacks of standard care and keep dep ...

INVISIBLES

Start date: Apr 1, 2012, End date: Mar 31, 2016,

"NEUTRINOS AND DARK MATTER are the most abundant particles in the universe and yet they remained unnoticed -invisible- for a long time, due to their tenuous couplings to the ordinary matter we are composed of.Neutrino masses inferred from neutrino oscillations and the existence of dark matter constitute the first evidence ever of particle physics beyond the Standard Model. A wide experimental prog ...

Self-Assembled Monolayers over Ferromagnetic Electrodes for Organic Spintronics (SAMSFERE)

Start date: Dec 1, 2012, End date: Nov 30, 2015,

"Organic materials offer unique properties like: i) processablility and plastic technology compatibility, ii) monodispersity and tunability and iii) long time spin coherence that make them appealing for spintronics devices and hence, a great number of proposals exits about its use in spintronics applications. Nevertheless, organic spintronics is in its infancy and so far only a small number of dif ...

Smart tools for the Prescription of orthopaedic Insoles and Footwear (SMARTPIF)

Start date: May 1, 2013, End date: Apr 30, 2015,

The project is based on an identified market gap: podiatrists often lack knowledge and experimental data to decide which specific shoe-insole combination-and their corresponding materials-are suitable for a patient. The project aims at developing a set of computer tools to assist a podiatrist in achieving the best therapeutic prescription for a patient. SMARTPIF will provide them with a tool to ob ...

Molecular Spin Clusters for Quantum Information Processing (MolSpinQIP)

Start date: Apr 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2011,

Molecular spin clusters are prototypical systems exhibiting coherent dynamics of the electronic spin. The pattern of the lowest lying spin states is well defined and controlled at the synthetic level. The chemical bottom up approach used for the synthesis of molecules also allows to reduce intrinsic sources of decoherence and to build links between clusters, thus creating entanglement of spin stat ...
