Diagnostic and Drug Discovery Initiative for Alzheimer’s Disease (D3i4AD)

Start date: Oct 1, 2014, End date: Sep 30, 2018,

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the major cause of dementia which has no cure at the moment. The overall aim of the work described in this proposal is to create a long-term strategic partnership between Sheffield University (UK), Lisbon University (Portugal), Eli Lilly (UK) and Biofordrug (Italy) in order to develop chemical biology tools for better understanding the role of PrPC in AD and harnessing ...

EUropean Provision Of Regional Impact Assessment on a Seasonal-to-decadal timescale (EUPORIAS)

Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Jan 31, 2017,

Recent advances in our understanding and forecasting of climate and climate change have brought us to the point where skilful and useful predictions are being made. These forecasts hold the potential for being of great value for a wide range of decision-makers who are affected by the vagaries of the climate and who would benefit from understanding and better managing climate-related risks. Howeve ...

Quality Translation by Deep Language Engineering Approaches (QTLeap)

Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2016,

In the last decade, the incremental advancement of mainstream research on Machine Translation (MT) has been obtained by encompassing increasingly sophisticated statistical approaches and fine-grained linguistic features that add to the surface level alignment on which these approaches are ultimately anchored.It has been ventured recently, in some leading academic and industry circles, that the inc ...

Designing Trees for the future (TREES4FUTURE)

Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Apr 30, 2016,

TREES4FUTURE will make a significant contribution to helping the European forestry sector respond, in a sustainable manner, to increasing demands for wood products and services (among which preservation of forest biodiversity) in a context of changing climatic conditions. To do so TREES4FUTURE will integrate for the first time major, yet rarely interacting forestry communities (and their resources ...

Scalable, Secure Storage of Biobank Data (BiobankCloud)

Start date: Dec 1, 2012, End date: Nov 30, 2015,

Description BiobankCloud - your PaaS for BiobankingThe storage infrastructure for human biological material is generally known as a biobank. One of the main tenets of biobanking is the digitization of our genomic information for its archival and analysis. That is, in the future, vast amounts of genomic data will be derived from biomateria ...

Kernel-based ARchitecture for safetY-critical cONtrol (Karyon)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2014,

The use of autonomous mobile systems as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or smart cars are desirable for example for environmental surveillance like the monitoring of ash clouds emitted by volcano eruptions as seen in 2010. Also increasing traffic throughput by improving vehicle density in roads by smart cars co-ordinating their behaviours without driver involvement will be a means to maintain mobi ...

Security for Future Networks (SecFuNet)

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

The goal of the SecFuNet project is to design and develop a coherent security architecture for virtual networks and cloud accesses. The proposed architecture will provide solutions allowing the management of the security of communications for all machines connected to a public cloud using virtual networks. Hence, we need a coherent and robust identification scheme as well as a strong authenticatio ...
