Standardization and Development of Assays for Assessment of Influenza Vaccines Correlates of Protection (FLUCOP)
Start date: Mar 1, 2015, End date: Feb 29, 2020,
Background: Influenza viruses cause annual epidemic and occasional pandemics, both of which induce significant morbidity and mortality. Influenza infections affect all age groups but children and adults over the age of 65 are at most risk of developing severe disease.Vaccination is the most effective approach to reduce the impact of annual influenza outbreaks and potential pandemics, however, the ...

InFLUenza virus UNIVersal VACcine development program (FLUNIVAC)
Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2017,
Effectively protecting the general population from seasonal and pandemic influenza has proven to be a challenge, since influenza viruses continue to escape from and evade immunity.

Advanced Studies towards Knowledge on Lyssavirus Encephalitis Pathogenesis Improving Options for Survival (ASKLEPIOS)
Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2016,
The overall aim of ASKLEPIOS is to unravel and increase our understanding of the mechanisms that govern pathogenesis of rabies virus (RABV) infection, in pursuit of the rational identification of novel therapeutic leads for rabies encephalitis. Several studies have been conducted over the past decades attempting to unravel the pathogenesis of this deadly disease, however with limited success. New ...
