Human monoclonal antibody therapy to prevent hepatitis C virus reinfection of liver transplants: advancing lead monoclonal antibodies into clinical trial (HepaMAb)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2017,

Worldwide, 200 million people are infected with the hepatitis C virus (HCV). An estimated 15 million individuals are living with HCV infection within the EU. The economic, health and societal costs of chronic HCV infection are significant. HCV is the principal cause of death from liver disease and the leading indication for liver transplantation. The only treatment for end-stage liver disease is a ...

Diffeomorphism Invariant Gauge Theories, Asymptotic Safety and Geometry (DIGT)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Jun 30, 2017,

The aim of the proposed research is to develop a new description of gravity in four spacetime dimensions. This will (i) serve as a new tool to investigate the conjecture that four-dimensional quantum gravity may be ultra-violet complete (asymptotically safe); (ii) provide new techniques for the problem of classification of geometric structures on four-manifolds. To this end we shall study a certai ...

The circulation of naturalistic knowledge in Modern Europe (1500-1850): a micro analytical perspective (CIRCKNOW)

Start date: May 1, 2014, End date: May 1, 2017,

The aim of this project is to give new tools and new techniques to give a better understanding of Cultural Heritage that in this case is meant as the botanical and scientific knowledge of the past, through the combination of cultural history, history of science and landscape history analysed from a micro historical point of view.The project brings together a young researcher, trained in a multidis ...

Actuation and characterisation at the single bond limit (ACRITAS)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Mar 31, 2017,

"Scanning probe microscopy(SPM) has now evolved to the point where not only is imaging and manipulation with single atom resolution achievable but the state of the art in the field involves sub-molecular and sub-atomic resolution: individual chemical bonds can be resolved, their properties measured, and their spatial symmetry exploited.SPM is, however, increasingly a victim of its own success. The ...

The historical evidence for European environmental and meteorological extremes AD 400 – 1000 (HEEEME)

Start date: Mar 1, 2013, End date: Feb 28, 2017,

Understanding our environmental history is one of the most urgent research tasks facing humanity. Despite the necessity of improving our understanding of global environmental trends, our knowledge of environmental conditions in the period AD 400 – 1000 is very limited compared to that for the years post AD 1200. Yet very recent advances in regard to obtaining scientific natural proxy data and the ...

IMmune MOdulating strategies for treatment of MErkel cell Carcinoma (IMMOMEC)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

"Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a highly aggressive, often lethal neuroendocrine cancer of the skin associated with the recently discovered, common Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCV). With an incidence of 0.44 per 100,000 MCC is a very rare cancer. Notably, however, although MCC is 40 times less common than malignant melanoma, MCC has a dramatically higher mortality rate than melanoma rendering MCC to ...

Development of an innovative supercritical fluid decellularization technology to produce advanced biocompatible scaffolds for complex musculoskeletal regeneration (DECELL BONE REGEN)

Start date: Aug 11, 2014, End date: Nov 10, 2016,

The need for organs and tissues to treat end-stage organ failure and debilitating musculoskeletal conditions is a huge health requirement for Europe. Current treatments include organ transplants, bone grafts and tissue engineering and regenerative medicine approaches. Significant hurdles and limitations exist with all approaches: shortage of organ donors leads to patient mortality, autogenous bone ...

Sustainable Hydrothermal Manufacturing of Nanomaterials (SHYMAN)

Start date: May 1, 2012, End date: Apr 30, 2016,

It is vital that nanomanufacturing routes facilitate an increase in production whilst being 'green', sustainable, low cost and capable of producing high quality materials. Continuous hydrothermal synthesis is an enabling and underpinning technology that is ready to prove itself at industrial scale as a result of recent breakthroughs in reactor design which suggest that it could now be scaled over ...
