Demonstration of a Sustainable & Effective 2nd Generation Biofuels Application in an Urban Environment (BIOFUELS-2G)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2012,

Background Substituting biofuels for fossil fuels has the potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. However, the amount of carbon dioxide generated in the production of the biofuel should not cancel out any relative savings that might result from its use. Second generation biofuels are seen as a solution in this respect, because they are produced from ...

Reactive Oxygen Species and the Evolution of Life Histories (ROSELH)

Start date: Aug 1, 2010, End date: Jun 13, 2014,

"The target of this proposal is ageing and its association with reproduction, immunity and behaviour. This is an area of biology that has intrigued every generation since Aristotle (c. 300 BC). We assess how free radicals (reactive oxygen species), so often identified as factors of ageing and immune disorders, exert selection on living organisms and whether resistance (and defence) towards free ra ...

Go digital! Culture at your fingertips

Start date: Sep 1, 2016, End date: Nov 30, 2017,

Despite significant superiority over the younger generation in the form of greater life knowledge and experience, people aged 50+ often undergo a gradual marginalization. The reasons are multiple, but one of them definitely is digital exclusion which not only causes one’s economic but also personal losses – leading to withdrawal from life, less confidence and worse understanding of the fast-changi ...

Modelling the Complexity of Ageing in a Simple Genetic System (ELDERLYeast)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2016,

Ageing is the highest risk factor for a large number of diseases and yet surprisingly little is known about the underlying molecular mechanisms. Ageing is a classical complex trait affected by both the genetic background and the environment, and varies quantitatively among individuals. Identifying the causal genetic variants underlying variation in longevity is a major challenge. I propose to use ...

Start date: Apr 1, 2013, End date: Mar 31, 2015,

Competition for mates is one of the essential characteristics of all sexual reproducing organisms. Sexual selection is particularly strong in males. In some species males have developed several mating strategies to compete for females. Until now the identification of the underlying genetic variation of these alternative strategies has remained largely elusive. Here I propose to identify and study ...

Advanced tools for the management of electricity grids with large-scale wind generation (ANEMOS.PLUS)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2011,

Nowadays, wind power has an increasing share in the electricity generation mix in several European countries. Due to the intermittent nature of wind, the large-scale integration of wind power causes several difficulties in the management of a power system. Often, a high level of reserves is allocated to account for wind power variability, thus reducing the benefits from the use of wind energy.Toda ...
