The NanoChemBioVision project is being co-ordinated at The University of Southampton with an ERC grant lasting until 2020. It has been developing a generic and simple optic ultra-high resolution technology based on a super-oscillatory modulation of light coupled with wavelength mixing to provide optical information at <100 nm levels. This will be used for new…
Funded through Horizon 2020, co-ordinated by the Marine Institute in Galway Ireland and now in its 4th year, the AORAC-SA project (Atlantic Ocean Research Alliance Coordination and Support Action) was set up in order to provide scientific, logistical and technical support to the European Commission in developing and implementing trans-Atlantic marine research cooperation between the…
The MycoSynVac project is a 5 year research programme funded through Horizon 2020 and co-ordinated at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) in Spain. Now entering its 4th year it has been looking at Mycoplasmas and the infections caused by them in the livestock industry. Their inherent resistance to common antibiotics, due to the lack…
With just under 2 years left of a 5 year project, META-STRESS, which is co-ordinated at the University of Helsinki, has been studying the large metapopulation of the Glanville fritillary Butterfly in order to test how organisms cope with environmental stress and the eco-evolutionary consequences. The potential results of the project could prove ground-breaking in…
