Global Dynamics of Proteolytic Quality Control Networks in Stress Response and Aging (PROTEODYNAMICS)

Start date: Jun 1, 2014, End date: May 31, 2019,

Accumulation of damaged and aggregated proteins is associated with age-related neurodegeneration in Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s patients. The ubiquitin/proteasome system (UPS) is a major proteolytic route functioning in a cellular network that maintains the proteome during stress and aging. Degradation of damaged proteins is mediated by the 26S proteasome upon attachment of ubiquitin (Ub) proteins ...

Rome's Mediterranean Ports (ROMP)

Start date: Feb 1, 2014, End date: Jan 31, 2019,

Rome was connected to its Mediterranean provinces by commercial routes articulated through networks of ports acting as poly-functional nodes. Ships, people and goods moved along these, drawing the micro-regions of the Mediterranean into closer economic and commercial relationships with the City. Central to the success of these networks were the major ports through which were channelled major comme ...

"Resilience in East African Landscapes: Identifying critical thresholds and sustainable trajectories – past, present and future" (REAL)

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

"The strong temporal dynamics of the East African landscape and natural-resource distributions have always encouraged people to innovate and adapt to changing conditions. However, increasing population growth, changes in patterns of land tenure, industrialization, weak systems of governance, and global climate change have exacerbated previously localized environmental problems such as soil erosion ...

"Development of an Intra European Auditory Speech Perception standard for hearing impaired subjects with conventional/digital hearing instrumens, hybrid devices or cochlear implants" (HEARD)

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

"Only relatively recently, in hearing impaired children the use of sophisticated acoustical and electrical hearing devices enables swift progress of the development of auditory speech perception. Effectiveness of different types of hearing devices is influenced by the etiology, type and degree of hearing loss of the hearing impaired subject. There are, however, no clear, decisive, indications avai ...
