Lignin Based Carbon Fibres for Composites (LIBRE)
Start date: Nov 1, 2016, End date: Oct 31, 2020,
The use of carbon fiber (CF) based composites is of growing importance in many industrial applications with the current global market estimated at $28Bn [ref 9]. However, the current high cost, limited production capability in Europe and the use of petroleum-based polyacrylonitrile (PAN) as the precursor fiber (PF) from which the CF is ultimately derived, requires the development of innovative rou ...

SYSTEMS-BASED VIEW OF MELANOMA PROGRESSION: TOWARDS NOVEL DIAGNOSTIC (AND THERAPEUTIC) APPLICATIONS (SYS-MEL)
Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2017,
Worldwide figures show that there were 160,000 incidences of melanoma in 2002, whilst 39,000 died from the disease.
