Phylogeography and somatic evolution of cancer tumor cells (PHYLOCANCER)

Start date: Oct 1, 2014, End date: Sep 30, 2019,

"By far, most evolutionary research has focused on the changes that occur in the germline of individuals across generations, within and between species. For different reasons, much less attention has been given to the process of change within the somatic line of a multicellular individual. The formation of cancer tumors due to uncontrolled cell proliferation is one of the most prominent forms of s ...

Multifunctional micro- and nanostructures assembled from nanoscale metal-organic frameworks and inorganic nanoparticles (InanoMOF)

Start date: Apr 1, 2014, End date: Mar 31, 2019,

In InanoMOF, we aim to develop frontier Supramolecular and Nanochemistry methodologies for the synthesis of a novel class of structures via controlled assembly of nanoscale metal-organic frameworks (nanoMOFs) and inorganic nanoparticles (INPs). These methods will embody the premise that “controlled object-by-object nano-assembly is a ground-breaking approach to explore for producing systems of hig ...

CoeLux: the sky light reconstruction in artificial illumination by means of solid transparent nanocomposites (CoeLux)

Start date: Dec 1, 2010, End date: Nov 30, 2012,

The quality of artificial illumination is a major concern in modern society, where living conditions often deprive us of the comfort of natural light. The global replacement of incandescent with fluorescent or white-LED lighting, foreseen owing to energy-saving constrain, will represent impoverishment in terms of colour-rendering capacity, thus raising the problem to the level of health care. In a ...

Health Impact of Engineered Metal and Metal Oxide Nanoparticles: Response, Bioimaging and Distribution at Cellular and Body Level (HINAMOX)

Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2012,

Metal oxide and metal NPs are particularly dangerous for two reasons: their special catalytic activity coming from the properties of their nanointerface may interfere with numerous intracellular biochemical processes and the decomposition of NPs and the ion leakage could heavily interfere with the intracellular free metal ion homeostasis, which is essential for cell metabolism. A very specific pro ...
