Resummation of Higher Orders in QCD Perturbation Theory (ResuQCD)

Start date: Jun 1, 2010, End date: May 31, 2014,

Collisions of highly energetic hadrons play a crucial role throughout much of nuclear and particle physics. They offer insights into the inner structure of nucleons and nuclei, allow studies and tests of the strong interactions and their fundamental theory, Quantum Chromo Dynamics (QCD), and also serve as invaluable tools in the search for physics beyond our "Standard Model" of the forces in natur ...

No two halves are identical: a quantitative study of cranial asymmetry in human and non-human primates (DA)

Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Jan 31, 2013,

"Asymmetry is a fundamental biological aspect of all organisms. Cranial asymmetry is regarded as a signature for genetic and developmental instabilities and manifests itself in different aspects of the physiology and morphology. The most conspicuous form of bilateral asymmetry is directional asymmetry (difference between left and right sides of a body part). Understanding the biological processes ...

SIgnals and REgulatory Networks in early plant embryogenesis (SIREN)

Start date: Nov 1, 2008, End date: Oct 31, 2012,

"The focus of SIREN’s network partners within this present project is to train young biologists in using integrated approaches to study and understand SIgnals and REgulatory Networks (SIREN) in early plant embryogenesis at their internationally acknowledged European research sites. The multidisciplinary, interface-oriented approach will give fundamental insight into the regulatory system of early ...

BRAssinosteroid Venture Increasing StudentS' International MObility (BRAVISSIMO)

Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Aug 31, 2012,

"A future challenge for the European agriculture is to satisfy the growing demands for food in a sustainable manner. Understanding the basic mechanics of plant growth will ultimately lead to our ability to increase yield, while decreasing the need for fertilizer and pesticides. Plant growth is regulated by developmental programmes that can be modified by environmental cues acting through endogenou ...

Interactions between soil related sciences - Linking geophysics, soil science and digital soil mapping (iSOIL)

Start date: Jun 1, 2008, End date: Nov 30, 2011,

As formulated in the Thematic Strategy for Soil Protection prepared by the European Commission soil degradation is a serious problem in Europe. The degradation is driven or exacerbated by human activity and has a direct impact on water and air quality, biodiversity, climate and human life-quality. High-resolution soil property maps are one major prerequisite for the specific protection of soil fu ...

The Landscape and Isobars of European Values in Relation to Science and New Technology (Value Isobars)

Start date: Jun 1, 2009, End date: Nov 30, 2011,

The goal of this project is to provide the blueprints for a value-based and value-informed new and flexible governance of the science-society relation in Europe. Furthermore, the study shall identify necessary research tasks in order to move from a generic understanding of value-based and value-informed governance to more specific mechanisms of governance that improve current practice. Emerging bi ...
