Solutions for present and future emerging pollutants in land and water resources management (SOLUTIONS)
Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2018,
"SOLUTIONS will deliver a conceptual framework for the evidence-based development of environmental and water policies. This will integrate innovative chemical and effect-based monitoring tools with a full set of exposure, effect and risk models and assessment options. Uniquely, SOLUTIONS taps (i) expertise of leading European scientists of major FP6/FP7 projects on chemicals in the water cycle, (i ...

European Initial Training Network on Developmental and Computational Biology (DevCom)
Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2017,
The ability to manipulate cellular pluripotency and differentiation holds the as yet unrealized promise of regenerative medicine to produce replacement cells and tissues. To this end a deep understanding of the regulation of differentiation potential in the context of normal embryonic development is crucial. The recent revolution in sequencing technology has enabled high throughput and genome-wide ...

BIological tools to Optimize Treatment Technologies to remove micro Pollutants and Endocrine disrupters (BIOTTOPE)
Start date: Jun 1, 2012, End date: Jun 30, 2015,
Background
Over the past 20 years, water suppliers have become increasingly interested in endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs) and their negative environmental and health impacts. EDCs are a very large and diverse collection of chemical substances, which cause developmental disorders, such as sexual development problems, in aquatic organisms. The EUâs ...

Neuroendocrine Immune Networks in Ageing (NINA)
Start date: Dec 1, 2009, End date: Nov 30, 2013,
Current demographic trends indicate that by the year 2020 almost 1 in 5 of the European population will be aged over 65. However, although life expectancy is increasing in the developed world, the period of good health enjoyed by its people is not keeping pace. The ageing population is thus a major health and economic issue for Europe. Although ageing is a complex process, we know much about its a ...
