Euroabstracts: July 1994
"Euroabstracts" is published each month by DG XIII of the European Commission. It provides abstracts of Community RTD publications in addition to a review of RTD results, policies and activities. The July issue is devoted to European cooperation in the field of scientific and technical research. It presents an overview of COST, the Community's programme for scientific and technical research, which complements EUREKA and the framework programmes as a European-wide research initiative. A chapter on the COPERNICUS programme explores the Community's scientific and technological cooperation with Central and East European countries. Scientific and technical cooperation with developing countries is examined with regard to the important contributions made by the Community's international cooperation programme to strengthening the scientific base in developing countries. The July edition includes some 40 pages of abstracts of recent Community publications on research, science and technology. These cover a wide range of subjects: chemistry, earth sciences, engineering and technology, energy, life sciences, materials, mathematics, computers and telecommunications, nuclear science and engineering, and physics.
