Nanosystems for the early Diagnosis of Neurodegenerative diseases (NADINE)
Start date: Sep 1, 2010, End date: Aug 31, 2015,
Medical diagnosis is currently undergoing a major revolution due to the fast discovery of molecular biomarkers, and the development of multimodal “metabiomarker” signatures. Progress, however, is hindered by low abundance of many biomarkers of interest in body fluids, in absolute concentration and with regard to other biomolecules. The aim of the present project is to apply these progresses in bio ...

Semantic Tools for Carbon Reduction in Urban Planning (SEMANCO)
Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Nov 30, 2014,
While many cities in Europe and in the world have issued climate change policies and set targets for reduction of CO2 emissions, their implementation in urban planning practice remains a major challenge. Devising effective decision systems which support CO2 emissions reduction demands a systems approach which enables different actors -policy makers, planners, engineers, consultants, and inhabitant ...

Training future mechanical, civil, electrionic engineers and computer scientists in SYStem Identification, Condition & Health Monitoring for a New Generation of WIND Turbines (SYSWIND)
Start date: Dec 1, 2009, End date: Nov 30, 2013,
Growth in the European wind energy market has led to the manufacture of larger turbines (~ 7.5 MW). There are several challenges associated with these turbines, particularly offshore, e.g., vibrations/ damage of the flexible blades, mechanical drives/electric converters. These raise maintenance concerns and result in operational downtime, impacting on power systems and supply reliability. For thes ...

Training in European Asset Health Management (TEAM)
Start date: Nov 1, 2009, End date: Oct 31, 2013,
"Transport demand, both for passengers and freight, is growing strongly. To meet the economic growth targets of the Lisbon Agenda and to facilitate the economic integration of the European Union, European transportation needs to cater for a continuing medium term growth in demand. However, transport growth using the technologies of today is unsustainable. New technologies and processes need to be ...

Personal Glucose Predictive Diabetes Advisor (DIAdvisor)
Start date: Mar 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2012,
The DIAdvisor is a large scale integrating project (IP) aiming at development of a prediction based tool which uses past and easily available information to optimise the therapy of type I and developed type II diabetes.The DIAdvisor does not depend on specific sensor technologies and technologies like standard strip sensing, minimally-invasive continuous glucose sensors and non-invasive methods.Fo ...
