[PROJECT] PASSAM - Passive and Active Systems on Severe Accident source term Mitigation
ID: 323217
Start date: 2013-01-01, End date: 2016-12-31
In case of a severe accident in a Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) fission products are released from the degraded fuel and might reach the environment if their confinement is lost and/or bypassed. Given the high radio-toxic nature of fission products for environment and population,...

[REPORT SUMMARY] Roles of telomeric chromatin in malignant transformation
Recent evidence has associated telomere instability to oncogenesis but the mechanisms and the significance for human cancers remains elusive. To explore the ability of telomere dysfunction to promote neoplastic transformation in defined human cellular systems, Eric Gilson and ...

[PROJECT] TELOSENS - Telomeres and radiosensitivity of individuals
ID: FIGH-CT-2002-00217
Start date: 2003-01-01, End date: 2005-12-31
Risk estimate of radiation-induced cancer in human population is based on epidemiological data. Most extrapolations are limited by the lack of understanding of the mechanisms responsible for radiation carcinogenesis. The acquisition of knowledge on common genetic factors that ...

[PROJECT] NANET - Network to review natural analogue studies and their applications to repository safety assessment and public communication
ID: FIKW-CT-2002-20204
Start date: 2003-01-01, End date: 2004-12-31
The aim of this project is to promote a more considered use of natural analogues in safety assessment and public communication. This will be achieved by a critical review of traditional analogue studies, such as investigations of radionuclide transport around uranium ore bodie...

[PROJECT] NON-DSB LESIONS - Radiation specific DNA non-double strand break lesions: repair mechanisms and biological effects
ID: FIGH-CT-2002-00207
Start date: 2003-01-01, End date: 2004-12-31
Ionising radiation induces a plethora of DNA non-double strand break lesions such as oxidised bases, a basic sites and single strand breaks. Strong evidence exists that ionising radiation induces, besides isolated DNA lesions; a unique form o f DNA damage termed clustered dama...

[PROJECT] RAHGE - Individual radiosensitivity: heritability and genetics
ID: FIGH-CT-2002-00216
Start date: 2003-01-01, End date: 2005-12-31
Clinical data from radiotherapy and experimental evidence obtained in vitro demonstrate the existence of inter-individual variation in response to ionising irradiation. The contribution of age, genetic polymorphism and environmental factors to these variations is still unknown...
