| BELIEF | BELIEF is an EU FP6 project 1 spanning over 24 months, starting 1st November 2005, with the aim of promoting the application of European e-Infrastructures in new research domains.
We create knowledge-exchange and raise awareness of e-Infrastructures developments, both through our digital library comprising e-Infrastructure documentation and related services,
as well as through our networking events and publications.
Emphasis is given to developing stronger co-operation links with emerging economies specifically in both India and Latin America. |
| SAFE | The SAFE (Special Non-Invasive Advances in Fetal and Neonatal Evaluation) Network started on 1 March 2004, and is set to run for a period of 5 years. It is sponsored under the EU Framework 6 programme and has 50 partners from 19 countries currently participating. SAFE aims to lay the foundations for European advances in NIPD (Non Invasive Prenatal Diagnosis) and NS (Neonatal Screening). It is a programme designed to achieve intellectual and practical integration with a view to enhance the efficacy of NIPD and NS for genetic disorders within and beyond the European Community. This programme is interested in the use of cell-free circulatory fetal DNA as a screening tool to determine pregnancies at risk for heterozygous Mendelian genetic disorders, such as the haemoglobinopathies prevalent in large proportions of the European population. |
| ENERCA | ENERCA is an acronym for EUROPEAN NETWORK FOR RARE AND CONGENITAL ANAEMIAS. In this network, different experts are working together with the purpose of offering an improved public health service to professional medical practitioners and patients in every aspect of rare anaemias.ENERCA allows us to share all the advances and experience in the field of rare anaemias, congenital and non congenital. The simple aim is to help those people who suffer from these diseases. In addition, ENERCA also intends to help the physicians to obtain detailed information on rare anaemias for improved clinical care. |
| EUROBIOBANK | The EuroBioBank network is the first operating network of biobanks in Europe providing human DNA, cell and tissue samples as a service to the scientific community conducting research on rare diseases. It is the only network dedicated to rare disease research in Europe. |
| GLOBINBANK | |
| EUROGENE | The EUROGENE's project objective is to migrate towards more efficient development of higher quality (multimedia) didactic material on genetics through the guided editing and 'assembly' of educational packages based on the IMS learning design metadata framework and the sharing of different types of 'learning objects' between content owners, in 9 languages. |
| EGEE | Enabling Grids for E-sciencE (EGEE) is the largest multi-disciplinary grid infrastructure in the world, which brings together more than 120 organisations to produce a reliable and scalable computing resource available to the European and global research community.The EGEE project brings together experts from more than 50 countries with the common aim of building on recent advances in Grid technology and developing a service Grid infrastructure which is available to scientists 24 hours-a-day.The project provides researchers in academia and business with access to a production level Grid infrastructure, independent of their geographic location. The EGEE project also focuses on attracting a wide range of new users to the Grid. |
| DANTE | DANTE (Delivery of Advanced Network Technology to Europe) was established in 1993 in Cambridge, UK. It is a limited liability company and a “Not for Profit” organisation. The location of Cambridge was chosen as a result of an international competition, with the tax benefits which the UK government offered constituting a significant factor in determining the choice of location. DANTE's purpose is to plan, build and operate pan-European research networks. It was set up, and is owned, by a group of National Research and Education Networks (NRENs). It was established in 1993 and has since played a pivotal role in four consecutive generations of pan-European research network: EuropaNET, TEN-34, TEN-155 and now GÉANT. |
| CYNET | CyNet is Cyprus' National Research and Education Network. It provides a network infrastructure for the Cypriot Research and Education Community. CyNet connects universities and research institutions. The national backbone of CyNet is connected to the European backbone GEANT2 that is a part of the worldwide community of research and education networks. Through this connection the CyNet backbone is connected to the Global Internet as well. |
