An international network of 50 CubeSats for multi-point, in-situ measurements in the lower thermosphere and re-entry research (QB50)

Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2017,

The QB50 Project will demonstrate the possibility of launching a network of 50 CubeSats built by CubeSat teams from all over the world to perform first-class science and in-orbit demonstration in the largely unexplored middle and lower thermosphere. Space agencies are currently not pursuing a multi-spacecraft network for in-situ measurements in the middle and lower thermosphere because the cost of ...

Development of COMBInatorial BIOmarkers for subclinical atherosclerosis (COMBI-BIO)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2014,

"Systems biology involves the analysis of relationships among the elements in a system, viewed as an integrated and interacting network of genes, proteins and biochemical reactions. We have pioneered the use of metabolic profiling and the metabolome-wide association study (MWAS) approach, involving high-throughput spectroscopic screening, to capture comprehensive data on a range of exposures affec ...

Manipulation of Reynolds Stress for Separation Control and Drag Reduction (MARS)

Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Mar 31, 2014,

"Reynolds stress is the most important quantity affecting the mean flow as it is responsible for a major part of the momentum transfer in the wall bounded turbulent flow. It has a direct relevance to both skin friction and flow separation. Manipulation of the Reynolds stress can directly lead to changes in the viscous stress at the wall so as to effectively control the flow for effective flow cont ...

DEVELOPMENT OF DIAMOND INTRACELLULAR NANOPROBES FOR ONCOGEN TRANSFORMATION DYNAMICS MONITORING IN LIVING CELLS (DINAMO)

Start date: May 1, 2010, End date: Apr 30, 2013,

Dynamic information about biomolecular processes in living cells is important for fundamental understanding of cellular functions, which is one of the primary targets of molecular cell-biology with important applications to pharmacology. However fur further progress in this field, and this specifically for monitoring genomic processes, there is immense need for developing sensing and detection tec ...

BIOmimetic Technology for vibrissal ACtive Touch (BIOTACT)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2012,

BIOTACT will develop novel biomimetic computational methods and technologies for active touch sensing. The project is inspired by the functionality, morphology, and neural processing architectures of biological sensory systems that use tactile hairs known as whiskers or vibrissae. It will focus on two animals that are tactile specialists--the Norwegian rat and the Etruscan shrew. Both species make ...
