  1. New COST Action proposalsOpen Call - collection date 26 September 2008(OC-2008-2) Brussels, 26-27 May 2009

  2. COST Action TD0903 - Understanding and manipulating enzymatic and proteomic processes in biomineralization: towards new biomimetic strategies, the creation of tailored nano-scale architectures and environmental monitoring The Action will promote research on the biomineralisation processes of selected land, freshwater and marine species for both environmental biomonitoring and as a source of new biomimetic strategies and materials. Domains: CMST / ESSEM / MPNS Pg 18

  3. BMBS New Actions • BM0901 - SYSGENET - European systems genetics network for the study of complex genetic human diseases using mouse genetic reference populations • SYSGENET will contribute to the discovery of gene networks that are involved in the development of complex genetic diseases in human • BM0902- Network of experts in the diagnosis of myeloproliferative disorders (MPD) • facilitate and improve the accuracy of the diagnosis of MPD and related diseases in European countries • BM0903 - Skin barrier and atopic diseases (SKINBAD) • bundle research expertise on atopic eczema (AE) and to identify key genetic and environmental risk factors

  4. FA New Actions • FA0902 – Understanding and Combating Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome in Europe • improve knowledge on porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome in Europe in order to identify effective strategies to combat it • FA0903 – Harnessing Plant Reproduction For Crop Improvement • understand the mechanisms of sexual/apomictic plant reproduction and to facilitate the use of this increased knowledge in the development of new approaches in biotechnology, agriculture and food industry through improved crops

  5. FPS New Actions • FP0902 – Development and harmonisation of new operational research and assessment procedures for sustainable forest biomass supply • build the scientific capacity within forest energy research and support the technology transfer of the forest biomass procurement chain and sustainable forest management, through the harmonisation of terminology and methodologies

  6. CMST New Actions • CM0902 - Molecular machineries for ion translocation across biomembranes • improve the understanding of proton and metal ion translocation across bio-membranes and the fate of such chemicals following their uptake by bridging neighbouring scientific fields and fostering applicative outcomes

  7. ES0901 - European procedures for flood frequency estimation (FloodFreq) • undertake a pan-European comparison and evaluation of methods for flood frequency estimation under the various climatologic and geographic conditions found in Europe, and different levels of data availability • ES0902 - Permafrost and gas hydrate related methane release in the Arctic and impact on climate change: European cooperation for long-term monitoring: PERGAMON • quantify the methane input from marine and terrestrial sources into the atmosphere in the Arctic region, and ultimately to evaluate the impact of Arctic methane seepage on global climate • ES0903 - Spectral sampling tools for vegetation Biophysical Parameters and Flux measurements in Europe • develop common protocols and new instruments within a larger European network for optical measurements, bringing together scientists from the existing research networks with those from scientific instruments industries

  8. IS0903 - Enhancing the Role of Medicine in the Management of European Health Systems: Implications for Control, Innovation and User Voice increase empirical, theoretical and policy relevant knowledge about the changing role of medical professionals in the management of healthcare ISCH New Actions

  9. TUD New Actions • TU0901 - Integrating and Harmonizing Sound Insulation Aspects in Sustainable Urban Housing Constructions • harmonise the descriptors for airborne and impact sound insulation between dwellings and for airborne sound insulation of facades as well as to prepare a European classification scheme with a number of quality classes • TU0902 - Integrated assessment technologies to support the sustainable development of urban areas • develop better representations of the urban systems interactions and dynamics as well as new configurations of urban areas so that they consume fewer resources, emit less pollution, are more resilient to the impacts of climate change and are more sustainable in general • TU0903 - Methods and tools for supporting the use, calibration and validation of traffic simulation models • develop, implement and promote the use of methods and procedures for supporting the use of traffic simulation models, especially on the topics of model calibration and validation
