Microbiome Influence on Energy balance and Brain Development-Function Put into Action to Tackle Diet-related Diseases and Behavior (MyNewGut)
Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2018,
Emerging evidence indicates that the gut microbiome contributes to our ability to extract energy from the diet and influences development and function of the immune, endocrine and nervous systems, which regulate energy balance and behaviour. This has led to hypothesize that developing microbiome-based dietary interventions can be cost-effective measures to prevent diet-related and behavioural diso ...

Safety of ACtinide Separation proceSSes (SACSESS)
Start date: Mar 1, 2013, End date: Jun 30, 2016,
"Nuclear power plays a key role in limiting EU’s greenhouse gases emissions, and makes an important contribution to improve European Union’s independence, security and diversity of energy supply. However, its social acceptance is closely linked to an enhanced safety in the management of long-lived radioactive waste contributing to resource efficiency and cost-effectiveness of this energy and ensur ...

PHYTOCHEMICALS TO REDUCE NITRITE IN MEAT PRODUCTS (PHYTOME)
Start date: Dec 1, 2012, End date: Nov 30, 2015,
Trend analyses indicate that the consumption of meat products in most EU countries is stagnating, with the exception of the market segment ‘light and healthy’. However, consumer perception is increasingly influenced by messages in the media that consumption of nitrite preserved meat products contributes to human cancer risk. Therefore, the aim of the PHYTOME project is to develop new meat processi ...

An innovative very low-cost thermo-electric technology for large-scale renewable solar energy applications (InnovTEG)
Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Aug 31, 2014,
The aim of the INNOVTEG project is to create nano-structured thermo-electric materials based on (low cost and abundant) sulphur with carefully controlled structure and properties.By doing this our consortium will create a step-change in the application of thermo-electric technologies for large-scale solar renewable applications in the EU by developing thermo-electric at massively reduced cost (€5. ...

"Synthetic Biology Resources for Universities: Research, development and implementation of resources for teaching synthetic biology" (UNIGEMS)
Start date: May 1, 2012, End date: Apr 30, 2014,
"Synthetic biology is an emergent interdisciplinary field that brings chemists, geneticists and microbiologists together with designers of electronic circuits, researchers of digital signal transmission and complex system interactions. It applies engineering principles such as the standardisation of parts and their organisation into complex circuits to recombinant DNA techniques. Its goal is to cr ...
