European Parliament
2009-04-06 - Brussels Plenary Session
Two days of debates in Brussels opened with a minute's silence for the estimated 300 migrants who drowned last week whilst trying to land on Europe's shores. MEPs discussed EU relations with Russia, demanding that respect for human rights and security of gas supply be put at the top of the agenda. They also agreed to expand the eco-labelling scheme and backed more investment in energy-efficient housing.

Health
2009-04-01 - New drug combats HIV in monkeys resistant to antiretroviral therapyResearchers in Austria, the UK and the US have tested a new drug on monkeys infected with SIV, the simian form of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and observed that it helped to reduce viral levels in animals that did not respond to antiretroviral therapy (ART). Their findings, published in the Journal of Immunology, provide encouraging evidence that the drug could be used in combination with ART to combat HIV/SIV infection.
Más información2009-04-01 - Study highlights learning difficulties in children born extremely prematurelyChildren born extremely prematurely (before the 26th week of pregnancy) face a high risk of developing learning difficulties by the age of 11, according to UK research published in the Archives of Disease in Childhood Fetal and Neonatal Edition. The findings are an outcome of the EPICure study, which was launched in 1995 with the goal of tracking the survival and long-term health of all babies born below 26 weeks gestation in the UK and Ireland during that year.
Más información2009-04-02 - Diabetes + abnormal heart rhythm = higher heart disease riskDiabetics who have atrial fibrillation (abnormal heart rhythm) have a stronger chance of succumbing to other heart-related problems and death, new research shows. The results from the ADVANCE[2] study, conducted by an international group of scientists, were recently published in the European Heart Journal.
Más información2009-04-03 - New cells in the human heart a beat awayResearchers at Sweden's Karolinska Institute have answered the disputed biomedical question of whether the human heart generates new cells or is equipped from birth with a prescribed number that decreases over time, unreplenished. Their findings, funded in part by the EU and published in the journal Science, show that in the course of a human life, fewer than half of some heart cells (cardiomyocytes) are in fact replaced. Analysing this process further could prove immensely beneficial as a means to treat cells damaged by heart attacks and to redirect therapeutic strategies.
Más información2009-04-03 - Women often feel 'ignorant' over pregnancy and birthThere is a prevailing idea in society that women are innately equipped through their gender and genes to deal calmly with the rigors of pregnancy, childbirth and childcare. But a new study from the UK's University of Warwick suggests this may not be the case and that many women, in fact, feel both ill-equipped and ignorant when it comes to the challenges of pregnancy and motherhood.
Más información2009-04-06 - Scientists elucidate role of diabetes geneEU-funded researchers have worked out how a gene called PTPN2 contributes to the development of type 1 diabetes. The scientists hope their findings will lead to the creation of new therapies to treat the condition. The research, published recently in the journals Nature Reviews Endocrinology and Diabetes, was partly supported by the EU through the SAVEBETA ('Molecular pathways underlying decreased beta cell mass in diabetes mellitus') project, which is financed under the 'Life sciences, genomics and biotechnology for health' Thematic area of the Sixth Framework Programme (FP6).
Más información2009-04-06 - Study finds no link between vitamin D deficiency and SADWinter is synonymous with skiing, tobogganing and hot cocoa. But for many, it is the season of the blues. With winter come shorter days and less sunlight, and a lack of vitamin D has been linked to depression and the symptoms of seasonal affective disorder (SAD). But researchers from the University of Warwick in the UK have found that there is no clear link between vitamin D levels in the blood and depression. Their findings are published in the Journal of Affective Disorders.
Más información2009-04-08 - Scientists identify genetic risk factor for common skin conditionScientists have identified a genetic variant that appears to be linked to an increased risk of developing the skin condition atopic dermatitis. The researchers hope their findings will lead to the discovery of new drugs to treat this chronic condition. The research, which is published online by the journal Nature Genetics, was supported in part by a Marie Curie researcher mobility grant from the EU.
Más información2009-04-08 - Tobacco gets new, healthy imageTobacco use triggers a number of common diseases in humans including heart disease and lung cancer. However, a group of scientists from Europe may be tobacco's saving grace. They successfully used genetically modified tobacco plants to generate medicines for a number of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. The study was part of the Pharma-Planta project, which was funded under the EU's Sixth Framework Programme (FP6) to the tune of EUR 12 million. The study's results were recently published in the open access journal BMC Biotechnology.
Más información2009-04-14 - Effectiveness of malaria drug varies throughout AfricaAn international study of malaria led by researchers in the UK shows that the effectiveness of the widely used anti-malaria drug sulfadoxine may vary widely across Africa because malaria parasites in different parts of the continent have developed different resistance mutations to the drug.
Más información2009-04-16 - The power of touch to take away painSitting by a sick person's bedside and stroking their hand is a natural impulse for most human beings, but a new study by researchers at the Sahlgrenska Academy in Sweden has proved that as well as creating a pleasurable sensation, stroking the skin can actually help relieve pain.
Más información2009-04-19 - Large-scale study identifies new genes involved in mental retardationIn one of the largest genetic sequencing efforts of a complex disease, an international team of EU-funded scientists has identified nine new genes on the X chromosome that play a role in learning disabilities. Their inactivation will lead to mental retardation. The study has been published in the journal Nature Genetics.
Más información2009-04-21 - How the brain links memory and behaviourA research team has identified which parts of the brain are responsible for different types of memory, a result that could have major implications for our understanding of neuropsychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia.
Más información2009-04-23 - Breakthrough on the cause of bacterial infectionsEuropean researchers have identified 39 proteins that interact with bacterial toxins in infected human cells, amounting to significant progress in understanding bacterial infection sources. The discovery, funded in part by the EU through the 'Interaction proteome' project, may open up new treatment targets for human illnesses in the future. The study is published in the journal Cell Host and Microbe.
Más información2009-04-24 - Early birds may get the worm but night owls perform betterEuropean researchers have shed light on one of life's biggest mysteries: why do some people perform well in the wee hours of the morning, while others kick-start their energy in the evening? Led by Professor Christina Schmidt from the Cyclotron Research Centre at the University of Liège in Belgium, a team of researchers investigated how the length of time we have been awake and the time of day influence our alertness and ability to concentrate. The findings of the neuroimaging study have been published in the journal Science.

Más información2009-04-02 - CO2 in natural gas fields dissolves in water, study showsAn international study led by researchers in the UK has shown that in natural gas fields, which have stored carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gases over millennia, most of the CO2 is stored by means of dissolving in water, rather than precipitating into minerals. Their findings, published in the journal Nature, have major implications for the study of the long-term effects of underground carbon storage.
Más información2009-04-14 - Green genes provide insights into climate changeAn international team of researchers has decoded genomes of two strains of algae that grow in very different parts of the ocean, and have gained new insights into the genes that enable them to capture carbon. Their findings, published in the journal Science, shed light on ancient cellular processes that have implications for the study of climate change and the development of algae-derived biofuels.
Más información2009-04-14 - Soil contamination test improved with wormsA Dutch researcher has discovered that exposing soil and sediment invertebrates like worms and springtails to toxic chemicals can give a more accurate test of soil contamination. Dr Miriam León Paumen of the University of Amsterdam also found that prolonged exposure can have a significant impact on the lifecycle of these invertebrates. Her findings give weight to the theory that gradual effects cannot be assumed in risk assessments for soil and sediment contamination.
Más información2009-04-21 - Study reveals costs of damage caused by invasive speciesEU-funded researchers are counting the costs of the damage caused by invasive species in Europe. Writing in the journal Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment, scientists from the DAISIE ('Delivering alien invasive species inventories for Europe') project highlight the invasive species with the greatest economic and environmental impacts. The findings of the project will contribute to the EU's Strategy on Invasive Alien Species.
Más información2009-04-22 - Study suggests link between ozone hole and expanding Antarctic sea iceThe hole in the ozone layer is responsible for the growth of Antarctic sea ice, new UK-US research suggests. However, over the coming decades, as the ozone layer recovers and greenhouse gas concentrations rise, this effect is likely to diminish, the scientists warn.
Más información2009-04-23 - Plants absorb more carbon under polluted skies, study showsNew research from Switzerland and the UK reveals that, somewhat paradoxically, plants absorb more carbon dioxide (CO2) when the atmosphere is polluted than they do under cleaner skies. Writing in the journal Nature, the scientists warn that as air pollution levels continue to decline, even steeper greenhouse gas emissions cuts will be needed to stabilise the climate.

2009-04-24 - More eco-friendly products for a low carbon future
The European Commission welcomes today’s adoption by the European Parliament of its proposal to push ahead the shift towards a low-carbon economy. The legal framework has been enlarged to all energy related products. So far eco-design requirements were restricted to energy-using product, such as boilers, water heaters, computers, televisions or industrial fans. If industry fails to act voluntarily, it will now be possible to set such standards for all energy related products including products which have a significant indirect impact on energy consumption during use, such as water-using devices and windows. Today’s vote allows a 1st reading adoption as the Member States have signalled their agreement.

2009-04-27 - Barca Report: Commissioner Danuta Hübner and Fabrizio Barca present reform proposals for EU Cohesion Policy
Danuta Hübner, European Commissioner for Regional Policy, and Fabrizio Barca, Director General in Italy's Ministry of Finance and Economy, today present the findings of the "Barca Report - an agenda for a reformed Cohesion Policy". The report, requested by the Commissioner, sets out the rationale for a European Cohesion Policy and puts forward recommendations for a comprehensive reform based on ten "pillars". Doctor Barca's proposals have been developed in full independence from the Commission, with input from academic experts and Member State officials following a series of meetings held throughout 2008. The report is part of a thorough reflection process on the future policy post-2013, which began in 2007 with the Fourth Report on Economic and Social Cohesion.

2009-04-02 - Commission consults publishing SMEs on innovation barriers and new business models
The Commission has launched its first ever consultation devoted to Small and Medium Enterprises in the publishing sector: books, newspapers, and magazines. Publishing now provides nearly 700 000 jobs, in around 80 000 companies across today’s 27 Member States, most of them SMEs. The consultation will map out how publishing SMEs are responding to the evolving business environment and the changes brought about by new technologies. The results will help to better understand the difficulties publishing SMEs face and identify ways action at national and EU level can strengthen the sector during difficult economic times.

Three years after its launch, the .eu top-level internet domain continues to be a success story. There are now more than three million internet domains under Europe's own top-level domain. Even the financial crisis has not stopped this growth: the number of .eu domains increased by 2% during the first quarter of 2009, and .eu was firmly entrenched as the fifth most popular country code top-level domain worldwide. By promoting a distinctly European online identity .eu can help citizens and businesses to reap the full benefits of Europe's single market. Multinational companies and SMEs, NGOs, think tanks as well as citizens have all adopted .eu to mark their web presence. They are not the only ones. Early last month, Sweden made a symbolic gesture by being the first Member State to adopt ".eu" for its official website dedicated to the Presidency of the European Union that will start on 1 July: www.se2009.eu.

50% of 10 year-old, 87% of 13 year-old and 95% of 16 year-old children in the EU have a mobile phone, but half of European parents worry mobile phone use might expose their children to sexually and violently explicit images (51%) or bullying by other children (49%), according to a survey. The European Commission today called on mobile operators to do more to keep children safe while using mobile phones by putting in place all the measures in the voluntary code of conduct, signed by 26 mobile operators in 2007. A report just published by the GSM Association, the trade body of the mobile phone industry, showed that national self-regulatory codes based on the framework agreement brokered by the European Commission now exist in 22 Member States, 90% of them in line with the 2007 agreement, and 80% of operators have put in place measures to control child access to adult content.

Más información2009-04-22 - Cost of roaming texts, calls and data services to plummet from 1 July
A text message sent from abroad in the EU will cost no more than €0.11 as of 1 July, instead of €0.28 today. The times where consumers had to expect "bill shocks" for downloading a picture or a movie with a mobile phone while roaming in the EU are over. The European Parliament, in its plenary session in Strasbourg, today voted by a large majority in favour of new EU rules on SMS and data roaming, proposed by the European Commission in September 2008. The Parliament also voted for further cuts in the price of mobile phone calls while roaming in another EU country. The present cap for a mobile phone call made abroad will progressively drop from €0.46 to €0.35 per minute by July 2011, and from €0.22 today to €0.11 for mobile calls received while roaming abroad. Mobile operators will also be required to bill roaming calls by the second from the 31st second at the latest, which will end the current practice under which consumers are overcharged by up to 24%. As the Council of EU Telecoms Ministers has already signalled its agreement with the new roaming rules, today's vote paves the way for an entry into force of the new rules just in time for the summer holidays. European consumers are expected to save up to 60% on their bill for using a mobile phone abroad in the EU.

While being the backbone of most other crucial services, such as energy and water distribution, air and road traffic control or banking, European critical information infrastructures are themselves under constant threat of technical breakdowns and cyber attacks.

2009-04-01 - Adapting to climate change: the European Union must prepare for the impacts to come
The European Commission presented today a White Paper outlining actions needed to strengthen the Union's resilience in coping with a changing climate. Recent findings indicate that the impacts of climate change will be swifter and more severe than indicated by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in their 2007 report. Europe will not escape these effects and must therefore prepare to cope with them. The impact of climate change will have varying regional implications meaning that most adaptation measures will need to be taken nationally and regionally. The framework presented by the Commission sets out a two-phase strategic approach to adapting to the impacts of climate change in the EU which complements actions taken by Member States through an integrated and coordinated approach.

The European Commission has set out a strategy to help the EU cope with the impacts of climate change. In the White Paper 'Adapting to climate change: Towards a European framework for action', the Commission points out that even if greenhouse gas emissions are successfully reduced on a global scale, the greenhouse gases we have already released into the atmosphere will remain for some time yet, meaning that a certain degree of climate change is now inevitable. Meanwhile, recent research suggests that the impacts of climate change will be greater and felt sooner than many had expected.

The Council of the European Union has given its official stamp of approval to the climate and energy package, which comprises several pieces of legislation designed to help the EU tackle climate change. Under the package, the EU has committed to reducing its greenhouse gas emissions by 20% by 2020. The Commission first put forward the climate and energy package back in January 2008.

The European Commission welcomes the formal adoption today of the climate and energy package and legislation to reduce CO2 emissions from new cars and transport fuels. The measures, agreed in December, put Europe firmly on the road towards becoming a low-carbon economy and will increase energy security. The package sets legally binding targets to cut greenhouse gas emissions to 20% below 1990 levels and to increase the share of renewable energy to 20%, both by 2020. It will also help achieve the EU's objective of improving energy efficiency by 20% within the same timeframe. The package makes Europe the first region in the world to implement such far-reaching, legally binding climate and energy targets. It represents an important contribution to reaching an ambitious international climate agreement at the United Nations climate conference in December.

2009-04-23 - Commissioner Vassiliou welcomes the European Parliament's positive contribution to building a ‘Europe for Patients’
Today, the European Parliament voted on three important health policy initiatives; patients' rights in cross border healthcare, improving patient safety and an EU strategy on rare diseases. These actions mark an important step forward in providing patients with better opportunities and access to healthcare in Europe. The first reading vote on cross border healthcare endorses the Commission's proposal and further emphasises patients’ rights and the need for quality and safety in healthcare. Patients need clear information on their rights and conditions when seeking healthcare in another EU country. The European Parliament also highlighted in all three health votes the need for enhanced cooperation between all EU Member States, in order to pool knowledge and expertise to maximise health benefits for all.

More and more European air passengers are being offered the choice to use their normal mobile phone to send text messages, browse the web or even make calls on board airplanes. One year after the European Commission put in place common rules for safe use of mobile phones on aircrafts and for simple and non-bureaucratic authorisations of this essentially cross border service, 27 European aircraft have been equipped to allow the secure use of standard GSM handsets onboard aircraft while flying in European airspace. The number of aircrafts enabled for in-flight use of mobile phones is expected to double by the end of the year.

2009-04-02 - Commission publishes new report on national strategies to ensure coexistence of genetically modified crops with conventional and organic farming
Member States have made significant progress in developing coexistence legislation during the last years. This development of the legislative framework has gone hand in hand with a moderate expansion of the cultivation of GM crops. At the present time there is no indication of the need to deviate from the subsidiarity-based approach on coexistence. The Commission will continue to develop recommendations for crop-specific technical segregation measures together with Member States and stakeholders. These are the main conclusion of the second report from the European Commission on the coexistence of GM crops with conventional and organic farming, published today.

The European Commission today adopted a Communication paving the way for a new classification of agricultural areas with natural handicaps. With the help of scientific experts, the Commission has identified 8 soil and climate criteria as a basis for objectively and clearly classifying such areas. However, before presenting a legislative proposal, the Commission needs more data to assess their feasibility. Therefore, Member States are asked to provide simulations using national data to show how the criteria might work. The new classification system is likely to be in place in 2014; meanwhile the current system remains in force. This review exercise does not affect mountain areas (already classified based on objective common criteria) or areas with specific handicaps (e.g. islands and coastal areas) which are classified according to those specific handicaps.

Control lies at the heart of the CFP, because the policy's credibility depends on effective implementation and enforcement of the agreed rules. Last November, the Commission proposed a root-and-branch overhaul of the existing control system to have a new, more efficient system which would foster a culture of compliance with fisheries rules and create a level playing field for Europe's fishermen. The Parliament tabled several amendments today, but retained most of the key elements of the Commission's proposal.
