Heart OMics in AGEing (HOMAGE)
Start date: Feb 1, 2013, End date: Jan 31, 2019,
As more people survive into old age, the prevalence of heart failure (HF), one of the most common and debilitating diseases in older people, will rise still further. Delaying or preventing HF will have great benefit to those at personal risk, their families, society and the economy. HOMAGE aims to provide a biomarker (BM) approach that will a) help identify i. patients at high risk of developing ...

European Consortium for the Early Treatment of Diabetic Retinopathy (EUROCONDOR)
Start date: Mar 1, 2012, End date: Jun 30, 2016,
Diabetic retinopathy (DR), the leading cause of blindness among working-age individuals in developed countries has been classically considered to be a microcirculatory disease of the retina. However, there is growing evidence to suggest that retinal neurodegeneration is an early event in the pathogenesis of DR. For this reason, it is reasonable to hypothesize that therapeutic strategies based on n ...

Sustainable products from economic processing of biomass in highly integrated biorefineries (SUPRA-BIO)
Start date: Feb 1, 2010, End date: Jul 31, 2014,
Economic and sustainable production of fuels, chemicals and materials from biomass requires capture of the maximum energy and monetary value from sustainable feedstock. SUPRA-BIO achieves this by focussing on innovative research and development of critical unit operations, by using process intensification to match economic production to the scale of available feedstock and by process integration t ...
