Empowering children in clinical trials

Ιουλ 02, 2013 12:35

There is evidence that over 50 percent of medicinal products developed for children have not been tested or authorised for use by this age group. The research project RESPECT ('Relating Expectations and Needs to Participation and Empowerment of Children in Clinical Trials') has sought to change this.

European scientists have made a major breakthrough in the treatment of inherited retinal diseases.

A guide to facilitate the study of the potential environmental impacts of Offshore Renewable Energies

Ιουλ 02, 2013 12:33

This is a publication that aims to present in a synthetic and easily understandable way the existing knowledge about the potential environmental impacts of marine renewable energy projects and to point to the methodological means for studying them, so that future projects of this nature can be sustainably managed from an environmental perspective.

No biomarkers identified to assess potential health effects of GMOs

Ιουλ 02, 2013 12:32

Many people in Europe are critical of genetically modified (GM) food, due to safety concerns. A Eurobarometer survey, published in 2010, revealed that the European public tends to be worried on a “mediate level” about GM food, with people in Austria being particularly concerned. Today, genetically modified maize is cultivated commercially, mainly in Spain and Portugal. Nonetheless, authorised GM Organisms (GMO) may enter the European market as feed for animals or in food products.

Deciphering cancer cell invasion and metastasis

Ιουλ 02, 2013 12:30

The most fearsome aspect of cancer depends on the ability of cancer cells to spread from a primary tumour and to form new cancers in distant organs. The process is known as metastasis and scientists are edging closer to new preventative therapies.

Resistance to combination drugs threatens efforts to eradicate malaria

Ιουλ 02, 2013 12:27

With 300-500 million people falling ill to malaria each year, this debilitating tropical disease remains a global problem. Current combination drug therapy is still generally effective, but recent signs of resistance present scientists with a new challenge.

Researchers engineer synthetic pathways for new antibacterial treatments

Ιουλ 02, 2013 12:26

Bacteria, for the most part, thrive in extreme temperatures and in arid conditions. But some types of bacteria have the capacity to do this and more: they grow within diverse environments and adapt easily. One such species is the Bacillus subtilis. Known to make its home in soil and in water, researchers have also found evidence that B. subtilis is frequently present in the human gut.

Saving energy in subway stations

Ιουλ 02, 2013 12:25

As well as being the backbone of urban public transport systems, subways are also major consumers of energy. For example, the entire underground train network in Barcelona consumes around 63.1 million kWh a year. A third of the total energy is used to operate subsystems in the subway stations, such as air conditioning, escalators, elevators, and lighting. If it were possible to reduce energy consumption by just a few percent, this would save an impressive quantity of electricity.
