Development and Epilepsy - Strategies for Innovative Research to improve diagnosis, prevention and treatment in children with difficult to treat Epilepsy (DESIRE)
Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2018,
DESIRE will focus on epileptogenic developmental disorders EDD, i.e. early onset epilepsies whose origin is closely related to developmental brain processes. A major cause of EDD are malformations of cortical development (MCD), either macroscopic or subtle. EDD are often manifested as epileptic encephalopathies (EE), i.e. conditions in which epileptic activity itself may contribute to severe cogni ...

Stardust-The Asteroid and Space Debris Network (Stardust)
Start date: Feb 1, 2013, End date: Jan 31, 2017,
Asteroids and space debris represent a significant hazard for space and terrestrial assets; at the same time asteroids represent also an opportunity. In recent years it has become clear that the increasing population of space debris could lead to catastrophic consequences in the near term. The Kessler syndrome (where the density of objects in orbit is high enough that collisions could set off a ca ...

THE INTERMODAL BIKE - Multi-modal integration of cycling mobility through product and process innovations in bicycle design (BIKE INTERMODAL)
Start date: Apr 1, 2010, End date: Mar 31, 2014,
"Goals • Object of this work is to provide -by means of product and process innovations- an advanced compactable bicycle, making it practical to carry along a bicycle aboard public transportation, easily, safely and for a large number of passengers. The ultimate goal is a synergic, intermodal integration of public transport and cycling, expanding the share of both modalities in the urban mobility. ...

Space Weather Integrated Forecasting Framework (SWIFF)
Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Jan 31, 2014,
"We address two fundamental issues in space weather: 1) development of a integrated framework for the physics modelling of space weather, 2) study of methods and software to address the linkage (coupling) between different physics and processes developing simultaneously or in cascade. We propose a plan that starts from the fundamental physics of the space weather processes and designs, first, math ...

A pilot line of antibacterial and antifungal medical textiles based on a sonochemical process (SONO)
Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2013,
Hospital-acquired (nosocomial) infections are a major financial issue in the European healthcare system. The financial impact of these infections counteract medical advances and expensive medical treatments by increasing the length of hospital stay by at least 8 days on average per affected patient, hence adding more than 10 millions patient days in hospitals in Europe per year. The statistics on ...

The project idea comes from the awareness that in order to promote the Country development and competitiveness it is necessary to reconsider the social value of the industrial work and to promote the technical and scientific training that has recently lost appeal compared to classical training. Other European countries are in the same situation for similar reasons: a non sufficient young orienteer ...
