Embedded Multi-Core Systems for Mixed Criticality Applications in Dynamic and Changeable Real-Time Environments (EMC2)
Start date: Apr 1, 2014, End date: Jun 30, 2017,
Embedded systems are the key innovation driver to improve almost all mechatronic products with cheaper and even new functionalities. Furthermore, they strongly support today's information society as inter-system communication enabler.Consequently boundaries of application domains are alleviated and ad-hoc connections and interoperability play an increasing role. At the same time, multi-core and ma ...

Key insights into oxidation chemistry through synthetic systems: N2O activation with first-row transition-metals and O2 activation in heterobimetallic Fe-Ni systems (NewOxMet)
Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,
Oxidation reactions are one of the most important chemical transformations applied both in bulk and fine chemistry. In nature, this type of reactions is catalyzed by metalloenzymes which can perform highly selective transformations under mild conditions. Several bioinspired model systems have been developed but key issues remain to be successfully developed both from the catalysis point of view an ...

Mechanisms of prevention of type 2 diabetes by lifestyle intervention in subjects with pre-diabetes or at high-risk for progression (DEXLIFE)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
"Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is preventable by sustained changes in diet and physical exercise. Despite this, modern societies are already approaching 10% population prevalence of diabetes, and another 15% with pre-diabetes. The costs of T2DM are huge, approaching 10% of all health costs. Prevention of diabetes is a priority for national healthcare agencies and for the health insurance industry. Inve ...

Sustainable and integrated urban water system management (SANITAS)
Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2015,
SANITAS will create the next generation of integrated Urban Water System (UWS) management professionals by providing a unique Europe–wide training platform in the technical and complementary skills they will require. This is needed since in the near future climate change will bring dramatic regional variations in excessive surplus and deficiency in water supply and unpredictable variations in wate ...

Ab initio Statics and Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Olefin Metathesis Catalysts for pharmacological purposes (ComputeDRUG)
Start date: Aug 1, 2011, End date: Jul 31, 2015,
The computational calculations nowadays do not act as a support element for supporting experimental results. Now we have taken more ambitious roles, going forward and saving time and money to the experimental sector. Thus we will tackle existing unexplained effects in olefin metathesis, including no stability, no or low activity, deactivation of the catalysts. By means of DFT, the design of more a ...

Heme/copper and heme/non-heme diiron model systems for O2 reduction (Heme/(Cu-Fe)-O2-red)
Start date: Apr 1, 2012, End date: Mar 31, 2015,
One of the more challenging issues chemistry will have to face during the next century will be the replacement of energetic technologies based on oil consumption. Over millions of years of evolution, living organisms have developed clean and efficient strategies to solve the energetic issue: (i) during the photosynthesis, two molecules of water are oxidized to form molecular oxygen and sunlight en ...

Targeting Protein Synthesis in the Apicoplast and Cytoplasm of Plasmodium (MEPHITIS)
Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Jun 30, 2012,
"The protein synthesis machinery represents one of the most useful targets for the development of new anti-infectives. Several families of broadly used antibiotics (tetracyclines, macrolides, and novel glycopeptides like vancomycin, among others) exert their function by blocking the protein synthesis machinery. Doxicycline, a tetracycline antibiotic, remains a useful tool for the prevention of pal ...

INTEGRATION OF THE SYSTEM MODELS OF INSULIN SIGNALLING AND OF MITOCHONDRIAL FUNCTION AND ITS APPLICATION IN THE STUDY OF COMPLEX DISEASES (MITIN)
Start date: Nov 1, 2008, End date: Oct 31, 2011,
"A common trait to disorders such as type 2 diabetes or obesity is the development of insulin resistance. There is evidence indicating the existence of a bidirectional cross-talk between insulin signalling and mitochondrial function that may be relevant for the pathogenesis of those disorders. Based on this, MITIN main goal is to identify novel mitochondrial-dependent mechanisms responsible for th ...
