Targets and biomarkers for antiepileptogenesis (EPITARGET)
Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2018,
Epilepsy is a devastating condition affecting over 50 million people worldwide. This multidisciplinary project is focused on the process leading to epilepsy, epileptogenesis, in adults. Our main hypothesis is that there are combinations of various causes, acting in parallel and/or in succession, that lead to epileptogenesis and development of seizures. Our central premise and vision is that a comb ...

Thoracic injury assessment for improved vehicle safety (THORAX)
Start date: Feb 1, 2009, End date: Apr 30, 2013,
"About 41,600 people were killed and more than 1.7 million injured in European road accidents in 2005. Although the number of road fatalities has declined by more than 17% since 2001, more efforts will have to be made if the EC's targets on reduction of road fatalities and injuries are to be met. The THORAX Project will focus on reduction and prevention of thoracic injuries, one of the dominant ca ...

Understanding interactions between cells and nanopatterned surfaces (NanoScale)
Start date: Jul 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2011,
The study of biological processes occurring at the nanoscale is becoming a new discipline at the border between Physics and Biology with major scientific challenges and new technological applications. In fact, interactions at the nanoscale between cells/neurons and surfaces with specific nanopatterns appear to control several major biological processes, such as cell proliferation and differentiati ...
