Integrated non-CO2 Greenhouse gas Observing System (INGOS)

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

InGOS will support and integrate the observing capacity of Europe for non-CO2 greenhouse gases (NCGHG: CH4, N2O, SF6, H2 and halocarbons). The emissions of these gases are very uncertain and it is unknown how future climate change will feedback into the land use coupled emissions of CH4 and N2O. The NCGHG atmospheric abundances will increase further in the future and the emissions of these gases a ...

Employment 2025: How will multiple transitions affect the European labour market (NEUJOBS)

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

The objective of NEUJOBS is to imagine future, or rather various possible futures, under the conditions of the socioecological transition (and incorporating other key influences), map the implications for employment overall, but also in key sectors and relevant groups and integrate all of this together under a single intellectual framework. It will do so by combining EU-wide studies based on exist ...

Stem Cell Cocooning for Targeted Cardiac Cell Therapy (Stem Cells Cocooning)

Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2014,

Stem cell therapy is believed to be the most viable method for restoration of cardiac function after Myocardial Infarction (MI), the leading cause of death in Europe. Despite numerous attempts at injecting stem cells into post-MI heart to affect regeneration, the consensus is that anoikis (cell death) induced by the lack of contact between the cells and the tissue scaffold during injection, the ha ...

Invasive predator control: response of American mink to eradication in relation to farm distribution (MinkControl)

Start date: Apr 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2011,

The objective of this project is to develop empirically testable predictions that can advance both shared predation theory and its application to biological control. The introduction of alien species into some areas has had a devastating impact on native biodiversity as they cause fundamental changes in ecosystems. Often eradication is impossible; however, it is necessary to control alien species ...
