An integrated approach to diversify the genetic base, improve stress resistance, agronomic management and nutritional/processing quality of minor cereal crops for human nutrition in Europe (HealthyMinorCereals)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2018,

Consumers have increasing demands for healthy, nutritious, and innovative food produced sustainably. Minor cereals can address these points, as well as contributing to feed and non-food markets. However, they have been hardly developed as commercial varieties, with no major investment to exploit genetic diversity in breeding programmes, and have low yields. There has been little research to optimi ...

Disambiguating the Invisible Universe (DRKFRCS)

Start date: Sep 1, 2014, End date: Aug 31, 2016,

I aim to put into effect a new method for discerning the properties of dark energy (DE) from observational data that will be collected by the Euclid satellite. Current methods are tuned for discovery of any effect of DE that is different from the cosmological constant. Unfortunately, they most likely will not be able to determine what the precise mechanism is. For this, we must measure the scale d ...

The dark sector in cosmology and impact on present and future generation experiments (DEMO)

Start date: Feb 1, 2012, End date: Jan 31, 2014,

"Cosmology has seen the growth of an enthusiastic interest in the Dark Universe we live in. Observations show that ordinary matter is only a small fraction of the total energy in the Universe. The rest is in the form of Dark Matter and Dark Energy. They both emit no light: Dark Matter feels gravitational attraction and allows galaxies to form; Dark Energy contrasts gravity and makes the Universe e ...
