The SILENTWOOD project has developed sophisticated noise-reducing wall panels and doors. These multilayered wood-based panels with enhanced acoustic insulating properties for applications on doors and wall panels aim to substantially reduce the financial losses caused by noise pollution, but also to contribute to the health and well-being of citizens.

Europe's Water Framework Directive states that water is a heritage we must protect and defend. The potential threat of water contamination and the spread of waterborne diseases are becoming more serious than ever before. This is the result of a number of factors, including the increase in population, globalisation and the movement of more people across borders and between continents, and the effects of global warming.

You may be good at maths, art or sport, but you are probably not great at all three. The same is probably true of the region where you live, where the strengths of local industries rely on a unique combination of resources, knowledge or expertise. As a major provider of research funding, the European Union is seeking to build on these regional and sectoral strengths in order to drive growth and prosperity across the 28-nation bloc.

An EU-funded cooperation project between India and several EU countries could transform the sustainability and competitiveness of the food industry, while having a positive impact on the environment. Using new methods and technologies the project is turning fruit and cereal waste into valuable by-products.

Achieving the full economic potential of the oceans and seas in harmony with the marine environment is the primary goal of the European Union (EU)-funded project SEAS-ERA, which has brought together leading Marine Research and Technological Development funding organisations from across Europe. The project coordinates and integrates national and regional marine and maritime research programmes, and harmonises common priorities and needs related to the European sea basins.

From biotechnology to digital media, from energy to cloud computing, almost every job area today is strongly affected, if not entirely reshaped, by scientific and technological advancements. Still, according to surveys, young people in developed countries do not place a high value on science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM).

Tidal power has great potential for electricity generation due to the fact that tides are more predictable than wind energy and solar power. However, tidal energy conversion presents a complex engineering challenge: to produce affordable, competitive energy in one of the harshest natural environments, where access to maintenance is both expensive and high risk. An EU-funded project is meeting this challenge by testing long-range ultrasonic sensors for the automated detection of defects in tidal energy conversion devices such as turbine blades.

The EU-funded Global Allergy and Asthma European Network (GA²LEN), launched in 2004, has become a leading force in the battle against allergic diseases. The network is still expanding, with over 60 centres in more than 20 European countries.

Preparations are underway for a second phase of the European & Developing Countries Clinical Trials Partnership programme (EDCTP2, 2014-2024), which is expected to start in the course of 2014 as part of the EU's Horizon 2020 research funding programme.

Perceived by the general public as a disease that largely has been tamed, tuberculosis kills about 1.5 million people worldwide each year – including an average of one person every seven hours in Europe. Faced with 9 million new infections annually, and mutating strains of the tuberculosis bacteria that confound the medical community, a high-profile European Union research project is working to coordinate the development of stronger, longer-lasting vaccines.

Search articles

Notes:
1) This search is for articles in the Information Centre, i.e. this site. To search all the European Commission's research and innovation sites, use the search box at the top of the page to the right of the menu.
2) In both cases, new content may take between a few minutes to a day to be indexed by the search engine and therefore to appear in the results.
3) If after clicking on a link in the search results the page is blank, please refresh the page (press F5 or CTRL-R). This problem is limited to Internet Explorer and the way it has been installed in some organisations; you should have no problem with other browsers. We will implement a solution as soon as possible.

Print to PDF!

Now you can easily convert your own selection of articles into a single PDF file!

Simply click in the box alongside any article in a list or above the title on any article page to add to your collection.

When you have completed your shopping, click the Convert to PDF button near the top of the right-hand column to produce the file. But be careful, if you have selected a lot, this may take some time!

Once the file has been produced you can view it online or save it to your computer; and there are even bookmarks in the file to help you find the beginning of each article.
