Bioactivated hierarchical hydrogels as zonal implants for articular cartilage regeneration (HYDROZONES)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2017,

Degeneration of cartilage is a major cause of chronic pain, lost mobility and reduced quality of life for millions of European citizens. From a clinical point of view treatment to achieve cartilage regeneration (hyaline) and not only repair (fibrous) remains a great challenge. No clinical therapy is available that leads to healing of cartilage defects.Current cartilage implants cannot establish th ...

Stem-cell based therapy for kidney repair (STELLAR)

Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2017,

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects 8% of the European population and ultimately results in renal failure due to progressive fibrosis. CDK carries a high mortality risk and the number of affected people rises, increasing the demand on renal replacement therapies while the number of available donor organs stays stable.The STELLAR consortium proposes to develop an alternative to renal replacement ...

Graded Membranes for Energy Efficient New Generation Carbon Capture Process (GREEN-CC)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2017,

Major sources for human made CO2 emissions comprise the energy and the industrial sector including cement production. One of the most appropriate concepts to capture CO2 from such point sources is the oxyfuel combustion. The main energy demand for this method results from the O2 generation, which is usually done by air liquefaction. This energy demand can substantially be lowered using thermally i ...

Design of Secure and energy-efficient embedded systems for Future internet applications (SecFutur)

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

Security has always been a stepchild to the developers of embeddedsystems. In the past they were able to rely on physicalprotection. Due to the connectivity and ubiquity of today's embeddedsystems this is no longer possible. The aim of SecFutur is to developand establish a security engineering process for embedded systems. Inorder to achieve this overall goal SecFutur will provide a set ofimplem ...

HYBRID INFORMATION PROCESSING (HIP)

Start date: Nov 1, 2008, End date: Apr 30, 2012,

Scaling quantum information processors beyond the present small-scale devices is challenging as communication between parts of the processor, single site addressability and scaling are dificult to reconcile. HIP addresses these issues with the experimental realization of elementary hybrid atom-photon devices, and the theoretical development of schemes for their integration on platforms capable of ...
