Microbicide Optimization Through Innovative Formulation for Vaginal and Rectal Delivery (MOTIF)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Mar 31, 2016,

"The 40% protection against HIV-1 infection with vaginally-applied tenofovir gel demonstrated in the CAPRISA004 trial, has emphasized development of anti-retroviral (ARV)-based microbicides. Combining ARVs in a single product may provide increased protection. Development of a generally applicable formulation platform for combining ARVs (even if chemically incompatible) and understanding of the pro ...

Combined Highly Active Anti-retroviral Microbicides (CHAARM)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Jun 30, 2015,

This proposal is for a large scale collaborative project in which we propose both to develop novel microbicides directed against new intracellular targets and to investigate novel combinations of highly active anti-retroviral drugs which may be particularly effective as microbicides. Combinations may enhance efficacy but equally importantly will increase the genetic barrier to the development of r ...

Media Actions for International Training of REsearchers (MAITRE)

Start date: Apr 1, 2011, End date: Mar 31, 2014,

The interaction between science and the media is a key element in the public opinion’s understanding of research issues and of citizens’ consensus on public spending for research. Food research issues have been recently at the heart of heated debates and often subject to misrepresentations partially due to over-simplification by the media or to insufficient involvement of scientists in communicati ...

Energy Efficiency and Risk Management in Public Buildings (EnRiMa)

Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Mar 31, 2014,

The overall objective of EnRiMa is to develop a decision-support system (DSS) for operators of energy-efficient buildings and spaces of public use. By providing integrated management of conflicting goals such as cost minimisation, meeting energy, efficiency, and emission-reduction requirements as well as risk management, the DSS will enable operators to improve building energy efficiency in the mo ...

Sustainable Technologies and Research for European Aquatic Management (STREAM)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2012,

The EU has invested considerable resources over the last decade to support the development of water technologies. As it often is the case with innovative technologies, there are currently few resources to pursue this process in the needed scale, and the uptake potential of water technologies and other environmental technologies resulting from EU-funded research seems limited due to insufficient aw ...

REsearch LAbs for TEaching Journalists (RELATE)

Start date: Feb 1, 2009, End date: Jan 31, 2011,

"RELATE is an ambitious experimental project conceived to bridge the relations between research laboratories involved in EU funded activities and the media. The objective is to select 80 final year students from different European journalism schools and organize for each of them a visit to a high-standing research laboratory in Europe. Since the project wants to test different approaches to the in ...
