Targeting novel lipid pathways for treatment of cardiovascular disease (Athero-Flux)
Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2018,
...previously unrecognized factors such as the gut microflora. Thus, we hypothesize that by controlling sphingolipid metabolism a better primary and secondary prevention of CVD events than with statins alone can be achieved. Athero-Flux builds on cutting-edge SME-led biotechnological tools including: a) high-throughput lipidomic platforms that allow the study of kinetics of lipid metabolism at the m ...

"MOLECULAR-SCALE ELECTRONICS: Concepts, Contacts and Stability ""MOLESCO""" (MOLESCO)
Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Dec 31, 2017,
"The MOLESCO network will create a unique training and research environment to develop a pool of young researchers capable of achieving breakthroughs aimed at realising the immense potential of molecular electronics. In part this will involve the major challenges of design and fabrication of molecular-scale devices. To deliver this step-change in capability, MOLESCO will coordinate the activities ...

Synthetic biology – Engaging with New and Emerging Science and Technology in Responsible Governance of the Science and Society Relationship (SYN-ENERGENE)
Start date: Jul 1, 2013, End date: Jun 30, 2017,
Synthetic biology (SynBio) offers huge potential for applications in energy, health and the environment. It also brings with it various challenges such as regulatory issues of biosafety, biosecurity and intellectual property rights, as well as potential environmental and socio-economic risks in developing countries. As yet, however, there is scant public knowledge about the technology. It is thus ...

Microscale Chemically Reactive Electronic Agents (MICREAGENTS)
Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Feb 29, 2016,
The goal of the project is to give electronics and chemistry an equal autonomous say in programming complex chemical constructions, processes and analyses at the nano and microscales: the same scale where information processing in living systems occurs – where "to construct is to compute". To do this MICREAgents (MIcroscopic Chemically Reactive Electronic Agents) will develop novel electronically ...

Training and Research in Unconventional Computation in Europe (TRUCE)
Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2015,
Unconventional computation (UCOMP) is an important and emerging area of scientific research, which explores new ways of computing that go beyond the traditional model, as well as quantum- and brain inspired computing. Such alternatives may encompass novel substrates (e.g., DNA, living cells, or mixtures of the two) as well as new paradigms which, for example, support combined information processin ...

Coordination of Biological & Chemical IT Research Activities (COBRA)
Start date: Dec 1, 2010, End date: May 31, 2014,
COBRA is a coordination action to help organize the international CHEM-IT community towards the next major science and technology revolution, involving the integration of information processing with production during deployment. The industrial revolution mechanized production with factories, and the information revolution mechanized information processing with computers. The next large-scale techn ...
