While elections and opinion polls offer a snapshot of thought on particular topics, they do not delve into the deeper feelings, hopes and fears of Europeans on key questions. The ESS charts changing attitudes and behaviour patterns of the diverse European populations on key policy issues, shedding light on the complex relationships between citizens and institutions. ]]> Thu, 13 Jun 2013 00:00:00 GMT tag:ch,2013-06-13:/infocentre/article_en.cfm?id=/research/headlines/news/article_13_06_13_en.html&item=Infocentre&artid=30373 http://ec.europa.eu/research/index.cfm?pg=events&eventcode=55765F8D-DC58-E9E6-093B82E415398DA0 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 00:00:00 GMT tag:ch,2013-04-29:/index.cfm?pg=events&eventcode=55765F8D-DC58-E9E6-093B82E415398DA0 http://ec.europa.eu/research/infrastructures/index_en.cfm?pg=mapri Fri, 22 Mar 2013 00:00:00 GMT tag:ch,2013-03-22:/infrastructures/index_en.cfm?pg=mapri http://ec.europa.eu/research/index.cfm?pg=events&eventcode=4A504652-F3AC-A4CC-5B55BA71AE69A818 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 00:00:00 GMT tag:ch,2013-03-08:/index.cfm?pg=events&eventcode=4A504652-F3AC-A4CC-5B55BA71AE69A818 http://ec.europa.eu/research/index.cfm?pg=events&eventcode=11FCB5EE-D5C7-457C-EBEDB19FEAC872C5 Mon, 25 Feb 2013 00:00:00 GMT tag:ch,2013-02-25:/index.cfm?pg=events&eventcode=11FCB5EE-D5C7-457C-EBEDB19FEAC872C5 http://ec.europa.eu/research/infocentre/article_en.cfm?id=/research/headlines/news/article_13_02_25_en.html&item=Infocentre&artid=29313 Covering 72% of the Earth and supplying half its oxygen, oceans are our planet's life support system. They play a crucial role in distributing heat, carbon, oxygen, nutrients, and, of course, water around the world, influencing our climate and our weather. The effects of global warming on sea levels, currents and water heat are still only partly understood, making predictions for future climate conditions difficult. But a worldwide programme using thousands of plastic floats is currently monitoring the oceans and - with crucial help from European researchers - is finding answers to what moves the seas. ]]> Mon, 25 Feb 2013 00:00:00 GMT tag:ch,2013-02-25:/infocentre/article_en.cfm?id=/research/headlines/news/article_13_02_25_en.html&item=Infocentre&artid=29313 http://ec.europa.eu/research/index.cfm?pg=events&eventcode=F6CC393D-A406-B302-C16A3868017B4B2E Wed, 20 Feb 2013 00:00:00 GMT tag:ch,2013-02-20:/index.cfm?pg=events&eventcode=F6CC393D-A406-B302-C16A3868017B4B2E http://ec.europa.eu/research/infocentre/article_en.cfm?id=/research/star/index_en.cfm?p=ss-stronger&calledby=infocentre&item=Infocentre&artid=28676 In French Guiana, as the distance between the expanding human habitat and the surrounding ecosystem is reduced, this has the potential to expose the population to new viruses and bacteria. European scientists are exploring how to improve research infrastructure and capacity to tackle the emerging threat of infectious disease in French Guiana and boost public health in the region. ]]> Thu, 13 Dec 2012 00:00:00 GMT tag:ch,2012-12-13:/infocentre/article_en.cfm?id=/research/star/index_en.cfm?p=ss-stronger&calledby=infocentre&item=Infocentre&artid=28676 http://ec.europa.eu/research/infocentre/article_en.cfm?id=/research/star/index_en.cfm?p=ss-eatris&calledby=infocentre&item=Infocentre&artid=28673 All too often, researchers who secure medical breakthroughs in the laboratory find themselves at a loss when it comes to turning their findings into health products. This blockage is due to the slow, cumbersome and failure-prone testing and approvals mechanism, which involves lengthy inter-disciplinary dealings amongst basic scientists, clinicians, regulators and more. But a new European project is simplifying the system and speeding the journey from science to therapy. ]]> Thu, 13 Dec 2012 00:00:00 GMT tag:ch,2012-12-13:/infocentre/article_en.cfm?id=/research/star/index_en.cfm?p=ss-eatris&calledby=infocentre&item=Infocentre&artid=28673 http://ec.europa.eu/research/index.cfm?pg=events&eventcode=2D334377-DF21-5657-AE9CE3D49BAEE248 Fri, 23 Nov 2012 00:00:00 GMT tag:ch,2012-11-23:/index.cfm?pg=events&eventcode=2D334377-DF21-5657-AE9CE3D49BAEE248 http://ec.europa.eu/research/sse/2011/index_en.cfm Thu, 25 Oct 2012 00:00:00 GMT tag:ch,2012-10-25:/sse/2011/index_en.cfm http://ec.europa.eu/research/sse/2011/index_en.cfm Wed, 10 Oct 2012 00:00:00 GMT tag:ch,2012-10-10:/sse/2011/index_en.cfm http://ec.europa.eu/research/infrastructures/index_en.cfm?pg=ri_projects_fp7 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 00:00:00 GMT tag:ch,2012-07-27:/infrastructures/index_en.cfm?pg=ri_projects_fp7 http://ec.europa.eu/research/infrastructures/index_en.cfm?pg=consultation Mon, 16 Jul 2012 00:00:00 GMT tag:ch,2012-07-16:/infrastructures/index_en.cfm?pg=consultation http://ec.europa.eu/research/index.cfm?pg=events&eventcode=0DF10A55-D47B-9086-FAB1D8D3CE374C18 Wed, 02 May 2012 00:00:00 GMT tag:ch,2012-05-02:/index.cfm?pg=events&eventcode=0DF10A55-D47B-9086-FAB1D8D3CE374C18 http://ec.europa.eu/research/infocentre/article_en.cfm?id=/research/headlines/news/article_12_03_28_en.html&item=Infocentre&artid=24353 Scientists in Cameroon, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and the United States have discovered that chimpanzee populations living in pretty close proximity are considerably more different genetically than are humans living on different continents. The study shows that genomics can play a key role in chimpanzee conservation. Presented in the journal PLoS Genetics, it was funded in part by the EUPRIM-NET ('European primate network: specialised infrastructures and procedures for biological and biomedical research') project, which clinched more than EUR 4.7 million under the Infrastructures Thematic area of the FP6. ]]> Wed, 28 Mar 2012 00:00:00 GMT tag:ch,2012-03-28:/infocentre/article_en.cfm?id=/research/headlines/news/article_12_03_28_en.html&item=Infocentre&artid=24353 http://ec.europa.eu/research/infocentre/article_en.cfm?id=/research/infrastructures/index_en.cfm?pg=success6&item=All&artid=24116&caller=SuccessStories Tue, 06 Mar 2012 00:00:00 GMT tag:ch,2012-03-06:/infocentre/article_en.cfm?id=/research/infrastructures/index_en.cfm?pg=success6&item=All&artid=24116&caller=SuccessStories http://ec.europa.eu/research/index.cfm?pg=newsalert&lg=en&year=2012&na=na-020312 Fri, 02 Mar 2012 00:00:00 GMT tag:ch,2012-03-02:/index.cfm?pg=newsalert&lg=en&year=2012&na=na-020312 http://ec.europa.eu/research/index.cfm?pg=newsalert&lg=en&year=2012&na=na-290212-1 Wed, 29 Feb 2012 00:00:00 GMT tag:ch,2012-02-29:/index.cfm?pg=newsalert&lg=en&year=2012&na=na-290212-1 http://ec.europa.eu/research/infrastructures/index_en.cfm?pg=events Mon, 30 Jan 2012 00:00:00 GMT tag:ch,2012-01-30:/infrastructures/index_en.cfm?pg=events http://ec.europa.eu/research/infrastructures/index_en.cfm For more information on Research infrastructures, click the link above, which will take you to the Research Infrastructures web site.
