Variability in the mutation rate of RNA viruses (VIRMUT)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

"RNA viruses are the fastest evolving entities in nature. Such rapid evolution is explained by their mutation rates, which are orders of magnitude higher than those of DNA organisms. The error-prone replication of RNA viruses also has public-health implications related to pathogenesis, antiviral research, or viral emergence. However, current mutation rate estimates vary by more than 100-fold acros ...

Replication and Adaptation in Molecular Networks (READ)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

"Systems Chemistry (the chemistry of complex mixtures of interacting molecules) is a rapidly developing new fronteir in the chemical sciences. Where chemistry has for centuries been a firmly reductionistic science, Systems Chemistry breaks with this tradition by focussing on complexity and emergent behaviour.This network brings together nearly all major academic players active in Europe on experim ...

Regenerable active polyelectrolyte nanofiltration membranes for water reuse and metal/acid recovery (LbLBRANE)

Start date: Feb 1, 2012, End date: Jan 31, 2015,

The shortage of drinking water in many regions on the planet constitutes a real problem and hazard. The use of seawater, brackish water and wastewater for human consumption is not a new concept. In spite of the success of membrane technology in water reclamation, membrane separation systems suffer from a serious problem: membrane fouling. The main downside is an inevitabe increase in operation and ...
