Personalised Guidance Services for Optimising lifestyle in teen-agers through awareness, motivation and engagement (PEGASO)

Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: May 31, 2017,

Obesity and other lifestyle-related illness are among the top healthcare challenges in Europe. Obesity alone accounts for up to 7% of healthcare costs in the EU, as well as wider economy costs associated with lower productivity, lost output and premature death. Obesity in younger age is an alarming predictor for obesity in adulthood, but also entails short term health complications in juvenile age ...

Advanced Flow Diagnostics for Aeronautical Research (AFDAR)

Start date: Nov 1, 2010, End date: Apr 30, 2014,

"The objective of AFDAR is to develop, assess and demonstrate new image-based experimental technologies for the analysis of aerodynamic systems and aerospace propulsion components. The main development focus is on new three-dimensional methods based on Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) to measure the flow field around aircraft components, and on the high-speed version of the planar technique for th ...

Fate of Repository Gases (FORGE)

Start date: Feb 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2013,

... repository design and construction. However, the performance of the repository as a whole (waste, buffer, engineering disturbed zone, host rock), and in particular its gas transport properties, are still poorly understood. Issues still to be adequately examined that relate to understanding basic processes include: dilational versus visco-capillary flow mechanisms; long-term integrity of seals, in ...

Resolution Enhanced Microscopy for Medical Diagnostics (REMEDI)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Jun 30, 2013,

"Since the histopathological diagnosis of tumours is based on microscopy, it would be highly desirable to possess a microscopical technique allowing morphological investigation with a wide zoom range, high resolution and the implementation of multiplex staining. Thus, the goal of the REMEDI project is to explore the possibilites of novel light microscopy techniques, which overcome the diffraction ...

Single Molecule Workstation (SMW)

Start date: Dec 1, 2008, End date: Nov 30, 2011,

This proposal aims at the development and application of an innovative single molecule workstation, enabling advances in the research happening throughout Europe and the rest of the world around the investigation of living cells. By combining three most advanced microscopic techniques into a single workstation, we aim at reaching a new quality level in the study of the molecular biology of living ...

FIT for Research (FIT)

Start date: Apr 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2011,

"Raising public awareness and interest for science and research still requires continuous and dedicated work. People usually react curious and excited about themes that are strange and unknown to them. Provoking curiosity seems to be a good starting point to an exploration into the hardly-known world of research and its activities to enhance public recognition at the Researchers Night.A university ...

TNS Train Nutrition Vocational training for learners with special needs using the example of nutrition education with digital media

While the apprentices and job- starters, with or without special needs, live with digital media, they are rarely used in education, which forgoes a big chance for more efficient teaching. The increasing skills- shortage in all countries of the EU requires extra efforts to offer qualified training to all young persons. In order to improve training, TNS transfers established training- modules to pa ...

Go4Job - European Gateway to Career and Success

An expert report, which was published by the European Commission at the beginning of 2010, comes to the result, that Europeans need to orientate their competences more and better to the demands of the labour market. In order to do so it is necessary to build "pedagogic bridges" between the educational system and the labour market, which helps to get more detailed information on occupations and the ...
