Brain injury and trauma monitoring using advanced photonics (BitMap)
Start date: Jan 1, 2016, End date: Dec 31, 2019,
Our vision is to develop a suite of standardised non-invasive devices that will provide essential information about brain health in neurocritical care and neuromonitoring, with a particular emphasis on 1. traumatic brain injury: the “silent epidemic of the third millennium” and 2. hypoxia in newborn children. Survivors present permanent neurological conditions that have a profound impact on the qu ...

Novel Stromal Cell Therapy for Diabetic Kidney Disease (NEPHSTROM)
Start date: May 1, 2015, End date: Apr 30, 2019,
Type 2 diabetes will affect >500 million adults by 2040 and its secondary complications will generate enormous socioeconomic costs - in particular, diabetic kidney disease (DKD), which is already the most common cause of chronic kidney disease. DKD is associated with greatly increased mortality and frequently progresses to end stage renal failure. Pharmacotherapy, dialysis and transplantation repr ...

Safe, Chemical-Free, Cleaning of Hospital Ward Surfaces (Cleanward)
Start date: Dec 1, 2012, End date: Feb 28, 2015,
Cleanward aims to develop a novel, safe, user-friendly anti-microbial cleaning system, using titanium dioxide coated ultra-microfibre fabric that will integrate easily into existing contract cleaning equipment: it will achieve log105 microbial removal and the coating will react with water and UV to produce a highly reactive environment: this will kill all harmful micro-organisms quickly and thorou ...

“Effect of diet on the mental performance of children” (NUTRIMENTHE)
Start date: Mar 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2013,
Current evidence on the effect of diet on mental performance (MP) is largely based on animal, retrospective studies, and short-term nutritional intervention studies in humans. NUTRIMENTHE will significantly improve this knowledge through studying the role, mechanisms, risks & benefits of specific nutrients & food components to respond to specific needs and improve the MP of children. The research ...
