New industrial technologies for tailor-made concrete structures at mass customised prices (TailorCrete)

Start date: Aug 1, 2009, End date: Jan 31, 2014,

TailorCrete will initiate a transition from the rectangular monotony of today’s industrialised concrete buildings that dominate the European landscape, to new industrialised unique concrete structures without the need for expensive and labour-intensive manual construction processes. This will be achieved by developing new industrialised processes for concrete, and thus play a significant role in t ...

European Collaborative Project on Inflamation and Vascular Wall Remodelling in Atherosclerosis (ATHEROREMO)

Start date: May 1, 2008, End date: Oct 31, 2013,

"The health of the EC population has never been better. However, serious public health problems remain, which cannot be ignored including high levels of premature death due to cardiovascular diseases. Thus, new preventive, diagnostic and therapeutic strategies against atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases are needed. The atherosclerotic changes of the vascular wall are central in the developmen ...

PROteomics SPECification in Time and Space (PROSPECTS)

Start date: Apr 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2013,

"Proteomics is a major new field in biomedical research, which deals with the large-scale identification and characterization of large groups of proteins, or “proteomes”. These can either be the components of a subcellular organelle or compartment, or even the entire protein complement of whole cells and tissues. Proteomics is essential in the functional annotation of the genome and in future atte ...

Robust Robot Locomotion and Movements Through Morphology and Morphosis (Locomorph)

Start date: Feb 1, 2009, End date: Mar 31, 2013,

Locomorph's goal is to push beyond the state of the art in robotic locomotion and movements, by increasing efficiency, robustness, and thus usability in unknown environments. As robotic research and industry are competing to increase robots' usability towards the highly-in-demand service robotics, advancements in robotic locomotion today would give Europe a significant competitive advantage. Locom ...

Marine Ecosystem Evolution in a Changing Environment (MEECE)

Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Feb 28, 2013,

MEECE is a scientific research project which aims to use a combination of data synthesis, numerical simulation and targeted experimentation to further our knowledge of how marine ecosystems will respond to combinations of multiple climate change and anthropogenic drivers. With an emphasis on the European Marine Strategy (EMS), MEECE will improve the decision support tools to provide a structured l ...

Metagenomics of the Human Intestinal Tract (MetaHIT)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2012,

A detailed understanding of human biology will require not only knowledge of the human genome but also of the human metagenome, defined here as the ensemble of the genomes of human-associated microorganisms. Our proposal focuses on the microorganisms of the gut, which are particularly abundant and complex and have an important role for human health and well-being. We shall implement and integrate ...

Developing Versatile and Robust Perception using Sonar Systems that Integrate Active Sensing, Morphology and Behaviour (ChiRoPing)

Start date: Feb 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2011,

Versatile and robust systems able to respond sensibly to challenges not precisely specified in their design, as envisaged in Challenge 2 target outcome (a), depend on (amongst other competences) effective perception systems able to function in complex and variable conditions. The principal objective of the proposed project is to discover how to engineer such systems, specifically embodied active ...

Longitudinal Enhancement and Access imProvement of the SHARE infrastructure (SHARE_LEAP)

Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2010,

Population ageing is among the most pressing challenges of the 21st century in Europe. Addressing this challenge scientifically demands an infrastructure of micro data of the changing health, economic and social living conditions of individuals as they go through the ageing process. SHARE, the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe, is an infrastructure of multidisciplinary, longitudina ...

Demographic Change and Housing Wealth (DEMHOW)

Start date: Mar 1, 2008, End date: Nov 30, 2010,

DEMHOW will investigate links between demographic change and housing wealth. Whereas those who rent their homes may have no housing wealth at all, for many older Europeans - perhaps 75% of the total - housing is their single largest item of wealth But, increasing numbers do not have children to whom their wealth might be bequeathed. The potential of housing assets is that they offer: older ...
