Imaging of Neuroinflammation in Neurodegenerative Diseases (INMiND)
Start date: Mar 1, 2012, End date: Feb 28, 2017,
The goal of this proposal (INMiND) is to carry out collaborative research on molecular mechanisms that link neuroinflammation with neurodegeneration in order to identify novel biological targets for activated microglia, which may serve for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, and to translate this knowledge into the clinic. The general objectives of INMiND are:(i) to identify novel mechanisms ...

Novel in situ and in operando techniques for characterization of interfaces in electrochemical storage systems (HI-C)
Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Feb 28, 2017,
The objective of the project is to develop methodologies for determining in detail the role of interface boundaries and interface layers on transport properties and reactivity in lithium batteries, and to use the knowledge gained to improve performance.The methods used will be advanced multi-technique in situ characterization combined with computational methods. The findings will be used e.g. in d ...

STrengthening And Redesigning European FLOOD risk practices Towards appropriate and resilient flood risk governance arrangements (STAR-FLOOD)
Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Mar 31, 2016,
Urban regions in the EU face increasing but uncertain flood risks due to urbanization and the effects of climate change. In European (a.o. the Flood Risk Directive) and in national and regional policies, attempts are made to diversify and align different Flood Risk Strategies (FRSs). In our proposal, five such strategies are distinguished: risk prevention; flood defense; mitigation; preparation; a ...

Vestibular System, Cognition and Vegetative Regulations (SVETA)
Start date: Dec 1, 2012, End date: Nov 30, 2015,
The vestibular system (VS), and more specifically its otolithic part (specialized in detecting gravity and inertial linear acceleration), has long been recognized for its role in spatial orientation and postural equilibrium. Its involvement in the regulation of other physiological systems (respiratory and cardiovascular systems, circadian regulation, food intake, bone mineralization) has been made ...

Climate Induced Changes on the Hydrology of Mediterranean Basins: Reducing Uncertainty and Quantifying Risk through an Integrated Monitoring and Modeling System (CLIMB)
Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Feb 28, 2014,
"With regard to the objectives specified in ENV-2009.1.1.5.2, modeling capabilities must be improved and appropriate tools developed to advance the capability to assess climate effects on water resources and uses. The project consortium will employ a combination of novel field monitoring concepts, remote sensing techniques, integrated hydrologic (and biophysical) modeling and socioeconomic factor ...
