How force regulates cell function: a molecular and cellular outlook (ForceRegulation)

Start date: Mar 1, 2012, End date: Feb 28, 2018,

Force is ubiquitous in nature and physical stimuli are crucial for cell function. How cells process forces determines key physiological processes such as cell growth and differentiation, in which cells divide or differentiate according to the chemical and physical cues cells receive from the extracellular matrix. Physical stimuli have also been involved in the development of pathological processes ...

"Innovative Multi-purpose off-shore platforms: planning, Design and operation" (MERMAID)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

"European oceans will be subject to massive development of marine infrastructure in the near future. The most obvious is the energy facilities e.g. offshore wind farms, exploitation of wave energy, expansion of electricity connections, and also further development and implementation of marine aquaculture. This will also lead to an increased need for marine infrastructure to support installation an ...

"Competitiveness, Innovation and Intangible Investment in Europe" (COINVEST)

Start date: Apr 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2010,

"We aim to understand the contributions of intangible investments to innovation, competitiveness, growth and productivity in Europe. Such a project is, we feel, vital to help EU policy formation and deepen our understanding of some of the most crucial questions facing EU economic policy. The reason is simple. Currently, (almost all) intangible investments are either not measured, or treated as an ...
