Collaborative Landscape planning for Enhanced Agrobiodiversity and Resilience
Given increasing attention on the importance of agrobiodiversity in agricultural landscapes, we identify integrative landscape-level planning as a promising approach to incentivize more widespread ad
Patient Stratification by Standardization of the Image-based Sweat Test for Cystic Fibrosis for use in Clinical Routine
The demonstration of a salty sweat has long been used to diagnose cystic fibrosis (CF), a rare disorder affecting 1 in 2,500 live births and associated with high morbidity and mortality. CF represen
Body fluid proteome SIGnatures for persoNALised intervention to prevent cardiovascular and renal complications in diabetes
Diabetes and the associated cardiovascular and renal complications are among the largest burdens for patients, and also the public healthcare system. In Europe 700.000 deaths are attributed to diabete
Defining (sex and age) cell-specific epigenetic mechanisms underlying Environmental Enrichment/Exercise as non-pharmacological intervention for Alzheimer’s and Huntington’s disease and related potential noninvasive biomarkers.
Aerobic exercise or cognitive training, as well as the combination of both (referred to as environmental enrichment, EE) can enhance synaptic plasticity, improve memory function and ameliorate disease
Managing sustainable sea urchin fishery and marine forest conservation
MUrFor acts at the interface of ecosystem dynamics, habitat conservation and resource use by exploring sustainable management options for sea urchin fishery in tri-trophic systems with fishes, sea urc
Marine sponge biodiversity from genes to ecosystems: delivering knowledge and tools for sustainable management and conservation
Sponges (phylum Porifera) are widely distributed across the oceans and form highly-structured habitats (sponge grounds, gardens and reefs) that play key functional roles and deliver numerous ecosystem
CULTURAL HERITAGE IN THE METROPOLITAN PERIPHERIES
The proposed research aims at analyzing two parallel but concurrent phenomena: I) The increasing recognition of the interest for the cultural heritage located in the metropolitan peripheries of Europe
Museums and Industry: Long Histories of Collaboration
The starting point of Museums and Industry: Long Histories of Collaboration (MaILHoC) is that museums of science, technology, and medicine (STM heritage) are in a state of upheaval. STM heritage
Multidimensional mechanistic investigations of trans spinal direct current stimulation in motor neuron disease.
Trans-spinal direct current stimulation (tsDCS) is a modern non-invasive neuromodulation technique with a unique capability of providing non-pharmacological, safe and cost-efficient treatment in sever
Mining allelic diversity of maize landraces for tolerance to abiotic and biotic stresses
Climate change, soil degradation and fertilizer costs threaten food security and agriculture sustainability in Europe. Traditional varieties of crops or landraces are a valuable source of genetic div
