NUCLEAR REACTOR SAFETY SIMULATION PLATFORM (NURESAFE)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

After the 2011 disaster that occurred in Japan, improvement of nuclear safety appears more clearly as a paramount condition for further development of nuclear industry. The NURESAFE project addresses engineering aspects of nuclear safety, especially those relative to design basis accidents (DBA). Although the Japanese event was a severe accident, in a process of defense-in-depth, prevention and c ...

ERA-NET on Translational Cancer Research (TRANSCAN)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2014,

"Cancer is a worldwide health burden and a major public health challenge in Europe, responsible for 25% of all deaths; a situation expected to worsen with population ageing. The strengthening of translational cancer research is an urgent need in European cancer research, i.e. the integration of basic, epidemiological, preclinical and clinical research with the implementation and evaluation of inte ...

Design of a pan-European Infrastructure for Large Apparatus studying Grand Unification, Neutrino Astrophysics and Long Baseline Neutrino Oscillations (LAGUNA-LBNO)

Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Aug 31, 2014,

Key questions in physics can be answered only by constructing a giant underground observatory to search for rare events and study terrestrial and astrophysical neutrinos. The Astroparticle Roadmap of ApPEC/ASPERA strongly supports this, recommending that: “a new large European infrastructure of 100'000-500'000 ton for proton decay and low-energy neutrinos be evaluated as a common design study tog ...

Synthesis of N-hydroxyheterocycles as starvation agents against highly invasive hypoxic solid tumours (NOXYCANCERSTARV)

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

"The purpose of this research project is the development of preclinical anti-cancer drug candidates able to fight hypoxic solid tumours, which are normally resistant to chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Highly invasive tumour cells are characterized by a metabolic switch, known as the Warburg effect, from “normal” oxidative phosphorylation to an increased anaerobic glycolysis. This ensures a sufficie ...
