Setting an interdisciplinary/sectorial/international research network to explore dry storage as an alternative strategy for cells/germplasm biobanking (DRYNET)

Start date: Mar 1, 2017, End date: Feb 28, 2021,

The number of biobanks for diagnostic/clinical/biodiversity preservation purposes is increasing exponentially, representing an economic burden for the EU. Cryopreservation (Liquid Nitrogen LN) is the only cells/gametes long-term repository method. LN storage is expensive though, requires dedicated facilities, is hazardous, carries pathogens and has high carbon footprint. DRYNET objective is to set...

European Food Studies & Training Alliance

Start date: Jan 1, 2015, End date: Dec 31, 2017,

Rapid changes in the economy and the market framework are a big challenge for the competition of the European Food Industry. The transfer of scientific knowledge and innovation from the research side to the food industry is limited. Real life cases and demand from Industry is not well enough taken up into academic curricula. Staff from university and industry side would both benefit from jointly c...

Next generation methods to preserve farm animal biodiversity by optimizing present and future breeding options (NextGen)

Start date: Apr 1, 2010, End date: Mar 31, 2014,

NEXTGEN proposes the bold step of using whole genome data to develop and optimise conservation genetic management of livestock diversity for the foreseeable future. The rationale for choosing whole genome data is to ‘future-proof’ DNA-based analysis in livestock conservation against upcoming changes in technology and analysis. Thus, in the context of whole genome data availability, our global obje...

Training Requirements And Careers for Knowledge-based Food Science and Technology in Europe (TRACK_FAST)

Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Feb 28, 2013,

The food and drink industry is the single largest manufacturing sector in the EU and is mainly comprised by SMEs and microenterprises (99.1% of European food and drink businesses). The European food industry is in the lower part of the innovation performance ranking, and is losing relative importance in the global food market. This situation was a primary reason for the initiation of the ETP Food4...

"Meeting the challenges of economic uncertainty and sustainability through employment, industrial relations, social and environmental policies in European countries" (GUSTO)

Start date: Mar 1, 2009, End date: Jul 31, 2012,

"Coping with economic uncertainty while seeking security is a central dilemma of public policy in a globalising economy. A complex set of deals and conflicts are involved in the process of distributing the gains and the burdens of that uncertainty, and various forms of employment contracts and labour and social policies express their outcome. This project is concerned with the study of that proces...

Expression and Methylation Status of Genes Regulating Placental Angiogenesis in Normal, Cloned, IVF and Monoparental Sheep Foetuses (ANGIOPLACE)

Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2012,

Normal placental angiogenesis is critical for embryonic survival and development. Epigenetic modifications, such as methylation of CpG islands, regulate the expression and imprinting of genes. Epigenetic abnormalities have been observed in embryos from assisted reproductive technologies (ART), which could explain the poor placental vascularisation, embryonic/fetal death, and altered fetal growth i...
