Examples of such projects include the Transport for London cycle hire scheme, the forthcoming east London cable car scheme and potentially the northern line extension to Battersea power station.
In the mid-1970's, for example, Village School students were awarded credit for such projects as hitchhiking across North Africa and working on a kibbutz in Israel.
Ministries responsible for such projects can take the opportunity to upgrade their internal training centres, for example, partnering with local colleges, training institutes and vocational schools.
For example, the focus of two such projects, HapMap project [ 1] and 1000 genomes [ 2], is to identify the variants in the human genome.
Such projects are for example large distributed long-term projects with biobanking, several institutions involved, clinical data warehouses, and personalized medicine genome sequencing projects.
For example, such pilot/exploratory projects could assess the feasibility of a novel area of investigation or a new experimental system that has the potential to enhance health-related research.
The long time frames and enormous cost required to send humans to Mars, for example, afford opponents many opportunities to whittle down or kill such projects.
Typically, such projects were outsourced to local municipal engineering and construction companies (for example, Changsha Municipal Engineering Company) through a bidding process.
