"Measuring Eta_Earth: Characterization of Terrestrial Planetary Systems with Kepler, HARPS-N, and Gaia" (ETAEARTH)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2017,

"We propose to carry out an FP7 collaborative project to provide the first ever quantitative answer to one fundamental age-old question of mankind: ‘How common are Earth analogs in our Galaxy?’. We will achieve our goal by combining the unprecedented photometric precision of NASA’s Kepler mission, the unrivalled precision of ground-based radial-velocities from the HARPS-N spectrograph, and ESA’s G ...

Unveiling the power of the deepest images of the Universe (ASTRODEEP)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

"ASTRODEEP is a co-ordinated and comprehensive program of i) algorithm/software development and testing; ii) data reduction/release, and iii) scientific data validation/analysis aimed at making Europe the world leader in the exploitation of the deepest multi-frequency data. We will focus on 5 key extra-galactic survey fields, the target of public observing programs motivated by the desire to under ...

Preparedness, Prediction and Prevention of Emerging Zoonotic Viruses with Pandemic Potential using Multidisciplinary Approaches (PREDEMICS)

Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2016,

The capacity of zoonotic RNA viruses to emerge as major agents of human disease can appear limitless. Current intervention strategies have demonstrated limited success. Rapid, innovative and effective solutions are needed to reduce the apparently accelerating process of zoonotic disease emergence. We will study the following zoonotic viruses with epidemic potential in Europe: influenza virus, hepa ...

Evolution and Transfer of Antibiotic Resistance (EVOTAR)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2015,

Antibiotics are essential therapeutics in the treatment of bacterial infections. However, the indiscriminate use of antibiotics has led to the emergence of antibiotic resistant bacteria that pose a major threat to human health as options for treating infections by these bacteria have become limited. The evolution, emergence and spread ofantibiotic resistance genes are still only poorly understood ...

Collaborative and Sustainable Astronomical Data Infrastructure for Europe (CoSADIE)

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

The Collaborative and Sustainable Astronomical Data Infrastructure for Europe (CoSADIE) project will undertake actions aimed at designing a sustainable version of the already successful European Virtual Observatory (Euro-VO). The concept of a Virtual Observatory (VObs or VO) is that all the world's astronomical data should feel like they sit on the astronomer's desktop workspace, analysable with a ...

Research Data Alliance Europe (RDA Europe)

Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2014,

Over the last 10 years, significant investments have been made in both the European Union and the USA for developing scientific data infrastructures to support the work of research communities, and in improving shared access to data. On both sides of the Atlantic, there is a shared understanding that solutions must be global and that the development of an integrated and interoperable data domain c ...

Detection and Characterization of Individual Micro- and Nanoparticles (DECIMA)

Start date: Oct 17, 2012, End date: Oct 16, 2014,

"The Project aims to develop novel approaches for detection and characterization of particles in the critical nanometer – micrometer size range. An improved knowledge of the make-up and origin of such particles that are present in the atmosphere and working environments is crucial for understanding their role in atmospheric pollution and human health. The role of atmospheric particles in influenci ...

ECO2Clouds: Experimental Awareness of CO2 in Federated Cloud Sourcing (ECO2Clouds)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2014,

Ecological implications of the rapid proliferation of cloud-based IT infrastructures form an important gap in the current state of the art in both research and practice. Addressing this gap is vital for sustainable future developments in cloud computing. ECO2Clouds will investigate strategies that can ensure not only effective application deployment on the cloud infrastructure but also reduce the ...
