In order to maintain a high level of safety and health protection against the risk of transmitting animal spongiform encephalopathies to patients or other persons via medical devices manufactured utilising non-viable animal tissues or derivatives rendered non-viable, including custom-made devices and devices intended for clinical investigation, it is necessary to update the rules laid down in Directive 2003/32/EC on the basis of the experience with the application of this Directive and to apply them also to active implantable medical ...[+++]devices manufactured utilising tissues of animal origin that fall within the scope of Directive 90/385/EEC.

Protecting Canadians from risks related to medical devices is the responsibility of Health Canada under the act as well as under the medical devices regulations.

In addition to presentations from the Italian authorities, experts from four research projects related to the Assisi case, and funded by the European Union's Environment and Climate research programme, will describe innovative techniques for protecting cultural heritage against seismic activity, the risks associated with the use of inappropriate tec ...[+++]hnologies, and the effects of mass tourism.

Research into the natural environment, environmental quality and global change" the aim of which is to understand the basic mechanisms of the climate and natural systems and their impact on natural resources (water, forests, agriculture, desertification, coastal areas); ". Environmental technologies" in order to develop environmental monitoring and protection technologies (biosensors, waste treatment, etc.), the restoration of deteriorated sectors of the environment, and the management of natural hazards (forest fires, seismic and volcanic risks ...[+++], flooding, etc.); ". Space technology applied to Earth observation and environmental research" in order to determine the planet's state of health from satellite data, necessitating the development of specific space instruments (advanced sensors).

2. Safety devices, controlling devices and regulating devices intended for use outside potentially explosive atmospheres but required for or contributing to the safe functioning of equipment and protective systems with respect to the risks of explosion are also covered by the scope of this Directive.

6. Environment and climate The environment and climate programme will continue the efforts to structure European environmental research by establishing networks of excellence and RTD in the following three areas: - "Research into the natural environment, environmental quality and global change" the aim of which is to understand the basic mechanisms of the climate and natural systems and to assess the impact of human activities on these systems and on natural resources (water, forests, agriculture, desertification, coastal areas); - "Environmental technologies" in order to develop environmental monitoring and protection technologies (biose ...[+++]nsors, waste treatment, etc.), the restoration of deteriorated sectors of the environment, and the management of natural hazards (forest fires, seismic and volcanic risks, flooding, etc.); - "Space technology applied to Earth observation and environmental research" in order to determine the planet's state of health from satellite data, necessitating the development of specific space instruments (advanced sensors).
