EUROPEAN NETWORK for CANCER research in CHILDREN and ADOLESCENTS (ENCCA)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

"ENCCA aims to establish a durable, European Virtual Institute clinical and translational research in childhood and adolescent cancers that will define and implement an integrated research strategy and will facilitate the necessary investigator-driven clinical trials to introduce the new generation of biologically targeted drugs into standard of care for children and adolescents with cancer. This ...

Self-Printing Advertisement Board with Reusable Ink (SPABRINK)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2015,

"Outdoor advertising can be split into two main categories, static and dynamic. The static types are much cheaper but apart from producing a lot of waste (paper, glue, ink) they are also limited as they are not capable of real time advertising. In addition, human resources are required for changing images, generating additional costs for the board owners. Dynamic (digital) advertising is becoming ...

Regulation of cellular proliferation in chronic neurodegenerative disease: Microglial proliferation and neurogenesis in prion disease (ProNeuroDeg)

Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Aug 31, 2013,

An important aspect of chronic neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Huntington’s or prion disease, is the generation of an innate inflammatory reaction within the central nervous system. Microglial cells play a leading role in the development and maintenance of this inflammatory reaction, showing enhanced proliferation and morphological activation. Moreover, during neurode ...

Core-shell catalysts for Direct Alcohol Fuel Cells (DAFCs): Study of the structure and stability under electrochemical conditions by X-ray structural techniques (XAS-DAFC)

Start date: May 1, 2011, End date: Apr 30, 2013,

"The development of low-cost materials is a determining step for the final introduction of low temperature fuel cells in the market. These systems, especially direct alcohol fuel cells (DAFCs), are the most important and promising alternative energy systems. However, their commercialisation for demanding applications, in particular for the transport sector, requires an increase of the metal effici ...

The control of protein synthesis in health and disease (Protein synthesis)

Start date: Feb 5, 2009, End date: Feb 4, 2013,

Protein synthesis is a key process in living cells, being required for cells to grow, divide, and respond to changing conditions, as well as being critical in gene expression. However, protein synthesis in an expensive process, using a great of energy and amino acids. It is therefore tightly controlled. This involves the regulation, by phosphorylation, of proteins involved in protein synthesis (‘t ...
