The molecular physiology and the evolution of a new pathway promoting developmental stability (FLY-PHY)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2017,

Developmental stability is the ability of an organism to buffer given traits against environmental and intrinsic perturbations. This may involve physiological, temporal or behavioral adjustments to the developmental program. The processes leading to developmental stability have been particularly well studied in arthropods. For instance, if uncoordinated growth is induced in the larval imaginal dis ...

The role of neuronal intracellular traffic in Alzheimer´s disease (TRAFFICINAD)

Start date: Apr 1, 2013, End date: Mar 31, 2017,

In neurons of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) there is an aberrant accumulation of beta-amyloid (Aβ) at synapses that renders difficult the formation of new memories for AD patients. Intracellular trafficking abnormalities have been implicated in Aβ accumulation. This research project aims to define how neuronal intracellular trafficking is mechanistically involved in Aβ accumulation that leads to AD. W ...

INNOVATIVE CONFIGURATION FOR A FULLY RENEWABLE HYBRID CSP PLANT (HYSOL)

Start date: May 1, 2013, End date: Jul 31, 2016,

Renewable energies have often problems in order to provide a stable and reliable power supply, as they often depend on meteorological circumstances that have a variable or stochastic component. This fact is often used by their detractors to favour the use of other alternatives such as fossil fuels.The main added value of the hybridisation concept will be the achievement of the Europe Strategic Ene ...
