Comorbid Conditions of Attention deficit / hyperactivity disorder (CoCA)

Start date: Jan 1, 2016, End date: Dec 31, 2020,

Understanding mechanisms underlying comorbid disorders poses a challenge for developing precision medicine tools. Psychiatric disorders are highly comorbid, and are among the last areas of medicine, where classification is driven by phenomenology rather than pathophysiology. We will study comorbidity between the most frequent psychiatric conditions, ADHD, mood/anxiety, and substance use disorders,...

Heart OMics in AGEing (HOMAGE)

Start date: Feb 1, 2013, End date: Jan 31, 2019,

As more people survive into old age, the prevalence of heart failure (HF), one of the most common and debilitating diseases in older people, will rise still further. Delaying or preventing HF will have great benefit to those at personal risk, their families, society and the economy. HOMAGE aims to provide a biomarker (BM) approach that will a) help identify i. patients at high risk of developing ...

Aggression subtyping for improved insight and treatment innovation in psychiatric disorders (AGGRESSOTYPE)

Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2018,

Aggression is a basic physiological trait with important roles throughout evolution, both in defence and predation. When expressed in humans in the wrong context, aggression leads to maladjustment, social impairment and crime. Despite this, knowledge about aggression aetiology is limited and current treatment strategies are insufficient. Contingent to a subdivision into impulsive and instrumental ...

Jean Monnet Chair in Cultural Anthropology: Citizenship, Mobility, and Belonging in the European Union

Start date: Sep 1, 2015, End date: Aug 31, 2018,

A growing demand for knowledge about European affairs in Western New York (WNY), but lack of a base for promoting teaching, research and public events related to Europe, has prompted this application for a Jean Monnet Chair at the University at Buffalo (UB). The Chair will coordinate existing activities and develop new ones in the area of European integration studies, with a particular focus on b...

MEMS made Electron Emission Membranes (MEMBrane)

Start date: Feb 1, 2013, End date: Jan 31, 2018,

We propose a radically new and generic type of detector for photons, electrons and energetic charged particles: a stacked set of curved miniature dynodes in vacuum, created through MicroMechanical Electronic Systems (MEMS) fabrication techniques on top of a state-of-the-art CMOS pixel chip. This combination in itself is an extremely efficient electron detector. By capping the system with a traditi...

Role of ncRNAs in Chromatin and Transcription (CRIPTON)

Start date: May 1, 2011, End date: Apr 30, 2017,

The human genome is highly transcribed, with over 90% of sequences contributing to the production of RNA. The function of the vast majority of these RNAs is unknown. Evidence over many years has revealed that transcription factors and chromatin regulators are associated with a variety of non-coding (nc)RNAs, but their function remains largely unknown. There are a few cases where a role has been as...

Sensing, monitoring and actuating on the UNderwater world through a federated Research InfraStructure Extending the Future Internet (SUNRISE)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2016,

We must learn to both sustainably exploit & protect our vast oceans, provider of oxygen, food, hydrocarbons & other resources. A solution lies in sensing & interacting through an Internet of Things, with distributed networks of intelligent sensors & actuators. Unfortunately, we currently lack a marine Internet, crucial to achieve distributed, coordinated & adaptive control, due to the rapid absor...

Information, Fluctuations, and Energy Control in Small Systems (INFERNOS)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

Strong statistical fluctuations in meso- and nano-scale structures make their thermodynamic properties extremely dependent on the information available about them. The most basic process illustrating the importance of information to statistical systems is the information-to-energy conversion in the famous Maxwell's Demon (MD). Our primary goal is to study both experimentally and theoretically the ...

Strategy for Allied Radioecology (STAR)

Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Jul 31, 2015,

With a renewed interest in nuclear energy and the scientific challenges related to the nuclear fuel cycle, the need for radioecological expertise is increasing world-wide. Concurrently, education related to radioecology has steadily declined, leading experts are approaching retirement, and funding for radioecological research is at a minimum in many European countries. To face this challenge and a...
