"A new approach to understanding consciousness: how ""feel"" arises in humans and (possibly) robots." (FEEL)
Start date: Jun 1, 2013, End date: May 31, 2018,
"Philosophers divide the problem of consciousness into two parts: An “easy” part, which involves explaining how one can become aware of something in the sense of being able to make use of it in one's rational behavior. And a “hard” part, which involves explaining why certain types of brain activity should actually give rise to feels: for example the feel of ""red"" or of ""onion flavor"". The ""ha ...

Predictive Position Coding (POSITION)
Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2017,
Vision gives us enormous adaptive advantage because it allows us to see and react to events before they reach us. This predictive advantage is most obvious for an object in motion where the current trajectory predicts future location. It is equally important when the object’s motion results from the movement of our own eyes. Here our visual system uses knowledge about the upcoming motion of the ey ...

The role of visual cues in speech segmentation and the acquisition of word order: a study of monolingual and bilingual adults and infants (VISCUESACQWO)
Start date: Jun 1, 2014, End date: May 31, 2017,
Adults and infants make use of both auditory and visual information in speech perception. The available visual cues include oral-articulatory movements (e.g., lip movements), as well as non-verbal gestures (e.g., head-movements). The present project seeks to investigate the role of visual cues as an aid for auditory prosody in speech segmentation and in bootstrapping syntactic development, topic t ...

Open Project for the European Radiation Research Area (OPERRA)
Start date: Jun 1, 2013, End date: May 31, 2017,
"Within the OPERRA project, it is proposed that the MELODI Association, as a well-advanced network, takes the lead in establishing the necessary structures able to manage the long-term European research programmes in radiation protection, also taking advantage of the valuable experience gathered through the DoReMi network of excellence. Whilst in fields adjacent to low-dose risk research (radioeco ...

Frontal Asymmetry as an Endophenotypic Marker of Differential Susceptibility to Parenting in Infancy: A Functional NIRS Study (INFANT NIRS)
Start date: Feb 1, 2015, End date: Jan 31, 2016,
Infants’ social-cognitive skills develop within the parent-infant relationship. Differences between parents in the way they interact with their infant may have important consequences for infants’ social-cognitive development. Moreover, due to their genetic make-up, some individuals may be more affected by their social environment than others. Indeed, genes that may convey this differential suscept ...

TRANSLATIONAL RESEARCH AND PATIENT SAFETY IN EUROPE (TRANSFoRm)
Start date: Mar 1, 2010, End date: Nov 30, 2015,
TRANSFoRm will develop rigorous, generic methods for the integration of Primary Care clinical and research activities, to support patient safety and clinical research via:1.\tRich capture of clinical data, including symptoms and signs rather than just a single diagnosis. A generic, dynamic interface, integrated with electronic health records (EHR), will facilitate both diagnostic decision support ...
