Elearning, Communication and Open-data: Massive Mobile, Ubiquitous and Open Learning (ECO)

Start date: Feb 1, 2014, End date: Jan 31, 2017,

Open Educational Resources (OER) has the potential to widen access to education and to improve the quality and cost-efficiency of teaching and learning in Europe. The most successful way to achieve a practical implementation of OERs are Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs). MOOCs are large-scale online courses and represent one of the latest developments in open education in its continuous e ...

"Closing the seed-dispersal loop: How does seed-dispersal affect plant population structure at the global, regional and local scales?" (SEEDS)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

"Seed-dispersal is an important ecosystem function with important consequences for the dynamics of plant and animal populations. This project will cover four related objectives which will evaluate different aspects of seed dispersal at the global (biogeographic), regional (national) and local (community) scales deepening the current knowledge on seed dispersal and its consequences. Early botanists ...

Micro/nanosensors for early cancer warning system - diagnostic and prognostic information (SMARTCANCERSENS)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

"Oncologists still rely heavily on biological characterisation of tumours and a limited number of biomarkers which have demonstrated clinical utility. Routine cancer diagnostic tools may not be always sensitive enough and may only detect proteins at levels corresponding to an advanced stage of the disease. Recently, new genomic and proteomic molecular tools (molecular signatures) are being employe ...

Reproductive isolation and competitive ability between native and non-native ranges of invasive weeds (ReproWeed)

Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Aug 31, 2016,

Over the last three centuries many species have been dispersed beyond their natural geographic limits by humans, but to our knowledge no reproductive isolation has been demonstrated for such neo-allopatric species. Centaurea solstitialis and C. sulphurea have overlapping distributions in their native and non-native ranges. Our preliminary results show that seed production of Californian infloresce ...

SMART MOBILITY IN SMART CITY (MOBINCITY)

Start date: Jul 1, 2012, End date: Jun 30, 2015,

Urban transport is responsible for about a quarter of CO2 emissions from transport. The gradual phasing out of 'conventionally-fuelled' vehicles from the urban environment is a major contribution to significant reduction of oil dependence, greenhouse gas emissions and local air and noise pollution. Fully Electric Vehicles (FEV), for public and private transport, can contribute significantly to the ...

INEXPENSIVE AND RELIABLE ON-SITE SOLUTION FOR OLIVE PRODUCERS TO CONTAIN VERTICILLIUM WILT (VERTIGEEN)

Start date: Feb 1, 2012, End date: Jan 31, 2015,

VERTIGEEN addresses a need identified by olive sector SME-Associations for the rapid and reliable on-site detection and quantification of the Verticillium dahliae fungus in soil and plant samples. The increasing frequency and severity of this pathogen in most EU olive growing areas has made it the most serious problem of commercial olive plantations.For an estimated commercial price of €1,000/devi ...

HeartWays - Advanced Solutions for Supporting Cardiac Patients in Rehabilitation (HEARTWAYS)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2014,

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is caused by an accumulation of plaques within the walls of the arteries that supply the myocardium with oxygen and nutrients. After decades of progression, some of these plaques may rupture and along with the activation of the blood clotting system limit blood flow to the myocardium, resulting in an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). This may be either a heart attack (my ...
