Optimization and application of Intense High-Order harmonics (OHIO)
Start date: May 1, 2008, End date: Apr 30, 2010,
...th weak counter propagating beams. Three applications of intense high-order harmonics will be explored, time-resolved digital in-line holography, nonlinear optics in the extreme ultraviolet range and seeding for free-electron laser research."

Bioprinting of novel hydrogel structures for cartilage tissue engineering (PRINTCART)
Start date: Jul 1, 2011, End date: Jun 30, 2014,
...ndeveloped area in tissue engineering. It refers to the automated fabrication of tissue engineering constructs with incorporated living cells. The particular advantages as compared to the manual cell seeding of prefabricated scaffolds are the abilities to mimic the cellular organisation of native tissues, and to upscale to (economically feasible) clinical application.The lack of suitable hydrogels ...

MoorLIFE: Active blanket bog restoration in the South Pennine Moors (MoorLIFE)
Start date: Apr 1, 2010, End date: Aug 31, 2015,
...p peat erosion and to restore hydrological integrity, the project built low-maintenance stone dams to block gullies. Results from water table monitoring showed that two years after the seeding of degraded peat areas there was a significant rise in water tables, and that water tables remain higher for longer. A survey of the new dams showed that 100% held water and 82% were trapping peat. The conse ...

3-O-sulfated heparan sulfate translocation in altered membrane biology: A newstrategy for early population screening and halting Alzheimer’s neurodegeneration (ArrestAD)
Start date: Jan 1, 2017, End date: Dec 31, 2020,
...s a societal challenge for which there is neither prevention nor possible cure. Research in the field has long been refining classic concepts based on the aggregation of Aβ and tau through initial seeding and then spreading. Our vision is different and based on the demonstration that tau abnormal phosphorylation and aggregation is triggered by the interaction of tau with heparan sulfates internali ...

New therapies for uveal melanoma (UM Cure 2020)
Start date: Jan 1, 2016, End date: Dec 31, 2020,
Uveal melanoma (UM) is a rare intraocular tumour with an incidence of 5 cases per million individuals per year. Up to 50% of UM patients develop metastases, most often in the liver, and these are invariably fatal. Despite new discoveries in the genetic and molecular background of the primary tumour, little is known about the metastatic disease; furthermore, there is no therapy to either prevent or ...
