Printed Logic for Applications of Screen Matrix Activation Systems (PLASMAS)
Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Apr 30, 2017,
The EU has lost a significant share of the electronics manufacture sector to the Far East, resulting in a negative trade balance of >€100bn/year within this sector. This is (in part) due to the current manufacturing technologies that are based on subtractive processing that are expensive, wasteful and energy intensive, making manufacture in the EU economically and environmentally unfeasible.

Active wound dressings based on biological mimicry (BacterioSafe)
Start date: Jul 1, 2010, End date: Jun 30, 2014,
The aim of the Bacteriosafe consortium is to construct, test and develop a unique active wound dressing, which incorporates novel colourimetric sensor and active therapeutic processes for detecting and counteracting pathogenic bacteria in wounds. The inspiration for this project is the natural nano-biological mechanism of bacterial attack on healthy cells. The outer cell walls are ruptured by an a ...

Unravelling the molecular basis of common complex human disorders using the dog as a model system (LUPA)
Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2012,
Despite major efforts, identifying susceptibility genes for common human diseases - cancer, cardiovascular, inflammatory and neurological disorders - is difficult due to the complexity of the underlying causes. The dog population is composed of ~ 400 purebred breeds; each one is a genetic isolate with unique characteristics resulting from persistent selection for desired attributes or from geneti ...
