EMRP | Industry | IND05 | MeProVisc | Dynamic Mechanical Properties and Long-term Deformation Behaviour of Viscous Materials | Enabling polymer use in industry: Improving confidence in polymer properties | completed | 2010 | |
iMERA-Plus | Health | T2.J06 | Brachytherapy | Increasing cancer treatment efficacy using 3D brachytherapy | Brachytherapy (BT) is a radiotherapy technique in which small encapsulated radioactive sources are placed inside or in close proximity to the treatment volume, delivering a high dose to the tumour at small distances while sparing the surrounding tissue. About 100 000 patients per year are treated in the European area with BT (about 10% of radiotherapy treatments). | completed | 2007 | |
iMERA-Plus | Health | T2.J10 | TRACEBIOACTIVITY | Traceable measurements for biospecies and ion activity in clinical chemistry | Traceable measurement results in clinical chemistry are mandatory in Europe. Within this framework, measurement methods and materials are evaluated which can serve as the required higher order reference points and which are linked with the SI as closely as possible. Reference and test laboratories in Europe profit from this newly developed system in a fast and efficient way. | completed | 2007 | |
EMRP | Industry | IND10 | Form | Optical and tactile metrology for absolute form characterisation | Measuring optical curved surfaces: Characterising free-form 3D surfaces | completed | 2010 | |
iMERA-Plus | Health | T2.J.11 | CLINBIOTRACE | Traceability of Complex Biomolecules and Biomarkers in Diagnostics - Effecting Measurement Comparability in Clinical Medicine | Stakeholders representing policy, diagnostic industry, academia and healthcare quality assessors, have highlighted the need for the further development of traceable reference measurement systems for complex biomolecules (e.g. disease state biomarkers and protein markers relevant for therapeutic intervention). | completed | 2007 | |
iMERA-Plus | Length | T3.J1.1 | Nanoparticles | Traceable Characterisation of Nanoparticles | Ever since the development of nanoparticles in the late 1960's and early 1970's they have been known to act as a bridge between atomic structures and bulk properties. This means they have potentially unique properties, for example as highly concentrated suspensions in the ink industry as drug delivery agents for the pharmaceutical industry, and in novel composite materials. Additional toxicological concerns require strict and well defined standards to be applied. | completed | 2007 | |
EMRP | Industry | IND15 | SurfChem | Traceable quantitative surface chemical analysis for industrial applications | Understanding chemical reactions at surfaces: Improving the speed and efficiency of industrial processes | completed | 2010 | |
iMERA-Plus | Electricity and Magnetism | T4.J02 | NanoSpin | Nanomagnetism and Spintronics | When starting the project in the field of nanomagnetism and spintronics, exciting new developments are under way in applications ranging from ultra strong magnets, spin polarized materials, ultra high density recording media, such as hard disks, flash memories/MRAM, spin transistors or spin-based qubits, leading to potential mass market products such as the instant boot computer, computer in a test tube and ubiquitous DNA- and bio-sensors. | completed | 2007 |
