RD-CONNECT: An integrated platform connecting registries, biobanks and clinical bioinformatics for rare disease research (RD-CONNECT)

Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2018,

Despite examples of excellent practice, rare disease (RD) research is still mainly fragmented by data and disease types. Individual efforts have little interoperability and almost no systematic connection between detailed clinical and genetic information, biomaterial availability or research/trial datasets. By developing robust mechanisms and standards for linking and exploiting these data, RD-Con ...

Phase I/II Gene Therapy Trial of Fanconi anemia patients with a new Orphan Drug consisting of a lentiviral vector carrying the FANCA gene: A Coordinated International Action (EUROFANCOLEN)

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

Fanconi anemia (FA) is a rare inherited syndrome characterized by the early development of bone marrow failure and increasing predisposition to cancer with age. Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT) is the only curative therapy for hematopoietic manifestations of FA, although associated with complications arising from myeloablation, graft versus host disease and increased inciden ...

Resistance in Gram-Negative Organisms: Studying Intervention Strategies (R-GNOSIS)

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

Antibiotics are a mainstay of public health, but their use has increased exponentially leading to the emergence of antibiotic resistance. The R-GNOSIS (Resistance in Gram-Negative Organisms: Studying Intervention Strategies) project combines 5 international clinical studies, all supported by highly innovative microbiology, mathematical modelling and data-management, to determine - in the most rele ...

Quantum Algorithmics (QALGO)

Start date: May 1, 2013, End date: Apr 30, 2016,

We will study the algorithmic aspects of quantum information. Our goal is to find new algorithms for quantum computers and new quantum communication protocols that are more efficient than the classical protocols. We will pursue this goal in a number of different ways.Firstly, we will study concrete problems that may have fast quantum algorithms and develop methods for constructing quantum algorith ...

Quantum Cascade Lasers Based TERAhertz Frequency COMB (TERACOMB)

Start date: Jun 1, 2012, End date: Nov 30, 2015,

Despite significant research efforts during the past 10 years, the terahertz (THz) spectral range remains vastly underexploited, owing essentially to the insufficient signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) achievable with present technology. The project's aim is to address this problem by building a new technological platform enabling the generation of high power, broad bandwidth, THz frequency combs (FCs) w ...

Evolution and Transfer of Antibiotic Resistance (EVOTAR)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2015,

Antibiotics are essential therapeutics in the treatment of bacterial infections. However, the indiscriminate use of antibiotics has led to the emergence of antibiotic resistant bacteria that pose a major threat to human health as options for treating infections by these bacteria have become limited. The evolution, emergence and spread ofantibiotic resistance genes are still only poorly understood ...

Quantum Computer Science (QCS)

Start date: Sep 1, 2010, End date: Aug 31, 2013,

Quantum Information Science (QIS) is a young, highly interdisciplinary field touching on the foundations of both computer science and quantum physics It provides a new model of computation that is both physically feasible and more powerful than conventional computing. If a quantum computer is built, we will be able to solve computational problems that are hard for ordinary computers. Quantum infor ...

"The interrelation of Tense, Aspect and Modality with Evidentiality in Australian Aboriginal languages" (TAMEAL)

Start date: Jun 1, 2009, End date: Jul 31, 2013,

"The present research project focuses on the relationship between tense/aspect and modality with evidentiality in Australian Aboriginal languages. These languages are good candidates for such a study, for they possess tense-aspect markers with both modal and evidential uses, as well as fully grammatical evidentials. From a purely theoretical point of view, tense, aspect, modality and evidentiality ...

CERTIFIED COMPLEXITY (CerCo)

Start date: Feb 1, 2010, End date: Mar 31, 2013,

The project aims to the construction of a formally verified complexity preserving compiler from a large subset of C to some typical microcontroller assembly, of the kind traditionally used in embedded systems. The work comprise the definition of cost models for the input and target languages, and the machine-checked proof of preservation of complexity (concrete, not asymptotic) along compilation. ...

COMPUTATIONAL COMPLEXITY MEETS AUTOMATA THEORY (MINICOMPLEXITY)

Start date: Sep 1, 2010, End date: Aug 31, 2012,

"Computational Complexity classifies computational problems according to difficulty. Although a rich map of time complexity classes has already been developed (P, EXP, EEXP, ...; NP, Delta2P, Sigma2P, Pi2P, ..., PH, AP; ZPP, RP, BPP, PP; IP; BQP; etc.), many fundamental questions about them remain wide open. The most famous one is P vs NP. In 1978, Sakoda and Sipser proposed a ""miniature version" ...

EUROPEAN UNION & THE WORLD SEEN FROM ABROAD (EUROBROADMAP)

Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Mar 31, 2012,

Geographers are the most critical social scientists when it comes to the delimitation of borders of the so-called European continent. Continents as Huntington’s civilisation are ideological productions that are certainly not based on natural facts. But they are deeply enhanced in the mind of European citizens and policy makers because they were historically produced by Europeans as a tool of world ...

The altering of the agricultural labour's meaning through the multifunctional model of agricultural activity as an answer to the crisis caused by the loss of jobs in the agricultural sector (AGROCLINICAL)

Start date: Feb 1, 2010, End date: Jan 31, 2012,

"Economy globalization has led to the development of a new work ideology in companies. The employee’s contribution to the competitiveness of the company and his/her direct responsibility for maintaining his/her position in the company comprise the central axis of this ideology. The model appeals to the employee's ability to adjust to a continuously changing economic environment, readjusting his/he ...
