PRESS RELEASE
Digital Agenda: Europe invests in photonics research to accelerate high-speed broadband

(28 June 2011) Thirteen photonics research projects are being launched in the field of high-speed fibre broadband networks with the aim of developing technologies to deliver super fast internet speeds to the home in excess of 1 Gigabit per second. The projects were jointly selected in 2010 by the European Commission, Austria, Germany, Poland, the United Kingdom and Israel, who are together paying a total of EUR 22.3 million towards them. The research projects will run for two to three years. Giving every European access to fast and ultra fast broadband by 2020 and boosting investment in European information and communications technology research are key objectives of the Digital Agenda for Europe.

PRESS RELEASE
Key Enabling Technologies to spur Europe's technological leadership

(28 June 2011) A key expert group set up by the Commission today set out guidelines on giving European industry a competitive edge in deploying the industrial technologies of the future (Key Enabling Technologies). The main conclusions call on decision-makers to adopt radical policy objectives to retain critical capability and capacity in Europe through a single and comprehensive approach to KETs. In particular, the group recommends that the vital importance of KETs should be reflected in the structure and funding balance in the upcoming framework for research and innovation and in the priorities of the EU's future regional policy. KETs are embedded at the core of innovative advanced products, such as electric cars and mobile phones. The High-Level Group was launched on 13 July 2010 by Vice-Presidents Antonio Tajani and Neelie Kroes and Commissioner Maire Geoghegan-Quinn and met three times.

PRESS RELEASE
Only two social networking sites protect privacy of minors' profiles by default

(21 June 2011) Only two social networking sites (Bebo and MySpace) tested on behalf of the European Commission have default settings to make minors' profiles accessible only to their approved list of contacts and only 4 sites ensure minors can be contacted by default by friends only (Bebo, MySpace, Netlog and SchuelerVZ). However, a majority of 14 social networking sites tested do give minors age-appropriate safety information, respond to requests for help and prevent minors' profiles from being searched via external search engines. The number of minors using social networking sites in the EU is growing - currently 77% of 13-16 year olds and 38% of 9-12 year olds who use the Internet.

PRESS RELEASE
Commission concerns on aspects of Belgian regulators' proposal to regulate broadcasting and (to a lesser extent) broadband markets

(21 June 2011) The European Commission has expressed a number of concerns on a proposal by the Belgian audiovisual regulators to regulate broadcasting services in Belgium. It has also raised some questions on the Belgian telecommunications regulator's proposal to regulate broadband access. In particular, the Commission is asking the Belgian regulators to take full account of market developments in both markets and to further substantiate and justify its reasoning with regard to the broadcasting market. The Commission's role is to oversee the details of remedies proposed by national telecoms regulators to address competition problems so as to ensure that customers and businesses are able to benefit from a fair and competitive single EU telecoms market, and that operators have the regulatory certainty they need to confidently operate EU-wide.

PRESS RELEASE
EU and Japan agree to strengthen cooperation in Future Internet research

(20 June 2011) Senior officials from the EU and Japan have agreed on a common area for research in Future Internet and New Generation Networks. This will be the subject of the first ever EU-Japan coordinated calls for ICT research proposals in 2012-13. The EU and Japan share many similar goals in designing the Internet of the future. We have the Internet of connected computers, and connected people, and the Internet is now going mobile. In the near future it will connect a whole range of machines and objects, generating ever-increasing volumes of data. But the internet needs to adapt to manage future data streams, and provide the associated levels of accuracy, resilience and safety. Challenges of this magnitude require a global response and global cooperation. A firm understanding on developing coordinated calls for research in Future Internet was reached at a meeting between the European Commission and the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications of Japan.

European Disability Forum and partners launch campaign for Accessible websites

(23 June 2011) On the occasion of the 1st Digital Agenda Assembly EDF and its partners launched their campaign for Accessible websites. 95% of public websites remain inaccessible. Concretely, this means that older people and persons with disabilities cannot access vital information online and perform the same everyday tasks as non-disabled people can. The European Commission has committed to improving web-accessibility by 2015: The Digital Agenda for Europe, one of the flagships of the Europe 2020 Strategy, and the European Disability Strategy 2010-2020 mention a legislative proposal that would "ensure that public sector websites and websites providing basic services to citizens are fully accessible by 2015". By concluding the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, the EU committed to take action to ensure equal access to information to persons with disabilities.

epSOS - Facilitating mobility in EUrope

28 June 2011

Mobility in Europe is growing as European citizens travel abroad more and more often for business reasons, as commuters or as exchange students. This increased mobility also leads to a greater need for supportive measures for the travelling population, in particular in the healthcare sector. When abroad, we all could find ourselves in need of medical care some day. The epSOS consortium has taken on the goal of improving medical treatment of European citizens while abroad. This year, the epSOS pilot operation phase will be initiated.

Oferta de contrato predoctoral para realizar una tesis en la fisiología del islote de Langerhans y la diabetes.

Se oferta un contrato predoctoral asociado a un proyecto (PROMETEO/2011/080) de la Generalitat Valenciana, para realizar una tesis doctoral en la Unidad de Investigación Básica en Diabetes en el Instituto de Bioingeniería de la Universidad Miguel Hernández en Elche (Alicante). La investigación requerirá la combinación de técnicas de fisiología celular con métodos de biología molecular. El estudio se centrará en el papel de la señalización por estrógenos en la regulación del receptor de leptina y su función en las células beta secretoras de insulina y las células alfa secretoras de glucagón. Además, se estudiará la regulación de este receptor durante el embarazo y en situaciones de obesidad así como su posible implicación en la homeostasis de la glucosa.

El candidato debe contar con una licenciatura en Biológicas, Bioquímica, Farmacia o estudios afines (posterior a 1 de enero de 2008). El expediente deberá ser igual o superior a 7 puntos sobre 10.

El contrato será de 3 meses con posibilidad de renovación durante 36 meses adicionales, con una cuantía aproximada de 1.400 euros mensuales brutos. El plazo de presentación de solicitudes finalizará el 29 de Julio 2011.
