Micro and Nano Engineered Bi-Directional Carbon Interfaces for Advanced Peripheral Nervous System Prosthetics and Hybrid Bionics (MERIDIAN)

Start date: Mar 1, 2012, End date: Feb 28, 2015,

The main goal of this proposal is to bring novel technology of biocompatible, low bio-fouling, high electrochemical performance carbon nanomaterials to in-vivo preclinical applications and at the same time to use this materials to develop a highly advanced concept of intimate intracellular contact, based on bottom - up technology of, engulfing the micro-electrode by neural cells. Such bionic inter ...

Impact of local welfare systems on female labour force participation and social cohesion (FLOWS)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Apr 30, 2014,

The aim of this project is to analyse how local welfare provision affects the labour market participation of women, and how female employment in turn affects the life-course (of women and men), structures of inequality, social cohesion and hence the sustainability of the European social model.Two types of welfare provision have been singled out to be of major importance for female employment: care ...

Nanostructured Toughened Hybrid Nanocomposites for High Performance Applications (NANOTOUGH)

Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2011,

Motivation: Nanocomposites are emerging new materials that promise improved properties. Their applicability, however, is presently limited by the cost of manufacture and product reproducibility. Literature shows that on the bench scale, dramatic improvement in polyolefin mechanical properties can be obtained by intercalation and exfoliation of nanoparticles in the matrix. However, when materials p ...
