European Consortium for High-Throughput Research in Rare Kidney Diseases (EURENOMICS)
Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2017,
EURenOmics will integrate several established consortia devoted to rare kidney diseases with eminent need and potential for diagnostic and therapeutic progress (i.e. steroid resistant nephrotic syndrome, membranous nephropathy, tubulopathies, complement disorders such a haemolytic uraemic syndrome, and congenital kidney malformations). The Consortium has access to the largest clinical cohorts asse ...

Low Embodied Energy Advanced (Novel) Insulation Materials and Insulating Masonry Components for Energy Efficient Buildings (LEEMA)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
A review of the embodied energy values of the various building materials shows that the embodied energy of the most widely used insulation materials in construction applications is characterised by very high values. This mainly results either from the energy intensive conditions applied for the manufacturing of the mineral based insulation materials or from the high embodied energies of the oil-ba ...

Establishing Silicon Isotopes as Weathering Tracers for Paleoenvironmental Studies (SI-PALEO)
Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
Weathering of silicate rocks acts as a major sink for atmospheric CO2, and hence is thought to have played an important role in regulating the Earth’s climate over geological time. Despite the potential importance of this process, and its significance to the global carbon cycle, our ability to reconstruct past variations in silicate weathering remains limited. Another important issue is the degr ...

Cycling resources embedded in systems containing Light Emitting Diodes (CYCLED)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Jun 30, 2015,
The project cycLED aims at optimising the flows of resources over all life-cycle phases of Light Emitting Diodes (LED) products. The energy saving potential for LEDs is significant, and the strategic importance of the LED technology is reflected in the current and upcoming market development. However, LED-based product systems contain many resources like indium, gallium or rare earth metals. Some ...
