Neurotransmitter Cys-loop receptors: structure, function and disease (NeuroCypres)
Start date: Feb 1, 2008, End date: Jul 31, 2012,
Cys-loop receptors (CLRs) form a superfamily of structurally related neurotransmitter-gated ion channels, comprising nicotinic acetylcholine, glycine, GABA-A/C and serotonin (5HT3) receptors, crucial to function of the peripheral and central nervous system. CLRs cover a wide spectrum of functions, ranging from muscle contraction to cognitive functions. CLR (mal)function is linked to various disord ...

Guardian Angels for a Smarter Life (Guardian Angels)
Start date: May 1, 2011, End date: Apr 30, 2012,
Guardian Angels (GA) are future zero-power, intelligent, autonomous systems-of-systems featuring sensing, computation, and communication beyond human aptitudes. GA will assist humans from their infancy to old age in complex life situations and environments. Zero-power reflects system-of-systems ability to scavenge energy in dynamic environments by disruptive harvesting techniques. The project prep ...
