Factories of the Future Resources, Technology, Infrastructure and Services for Simulation and Modelling (FORTISSIMO)

Start date: Jul 1, 2013, End date: Jun 30, 2016,

The importance of advanced simulation to the competitiveness of both large and small companies is well established. The principal objective of Fortissimo is to enable European manufacturing, particularly small to medium enterprises (SMEs), to benefit from the efficiency and competitive advantage inherent in the use of simulation. However, the simulation of, for example, high-pressure gas cylinders ...

OPtimizing TArgets and Therapeutics In high risk and refractOry Multiple Myeloma (OPTATIO)

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

Multiple Myeloma (MM) is an incurable disease with rapidly growing prevalence and poor prognosis. Consequently, it is the goal of the OPTATIO consortium to seek out novel strategies for the development of novel diagnostic and therapeutic options. The MM pathogenesis involves not only genetic changes within the tumour cells but also the emergence of supportive conditions by the bone marrow microenv ...

Functional liquid Crystalline dendrimers: Synthesis of New Materials, Resource for New Applications (Dendreamers)

Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2012,

Dendrimers are new materials obtained with a highly controlled molecular structure in several space orientations. Liquid Crystals (LC) Dendrimers are a part of them that incorporate directional properties to these materials. If we append active molecules into these engineered molecules, we can obtain multifunctional anisotropic molecules that open the possibility of achieving a wide variety of phy ...

Understanding and fighting metastasis via dissection of the Core Invasive Machinery (MetaFight)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2010,

The co-operative Metafight project will perform functional studies to understand the dissemination and outgrowth of metastasis through systematic analysis of the Core Invasive Machinery contained within integrin-mediated ECM attachment structure. It includes a large and discretely localised intracellular signalling network which drives migration and invasion. Our strategy is based on the hypothesi ...
