Rheumatoid Arthritis and Periodontal Inflammatory Disease (RAPID) (RAPID)

Start date: Apr 1, 2012, End date: Mar 31, 2016,

"The most prevalent chronic inflammatory diseases of humans are complex disorders of multifactorial aetiology influenced by genes, the environment and their interactions. Periodontitis (PD) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are two such chronic inflammatory diseases associated withsignificant morbidity and mortality, and have recently shown to have a bi-directional association. Moreover, the prevalenc ...

European Training and Research in Peritoneal Dialysis (EUTRIPD)

Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: Nov 30, 2015,

Peritoneal dialysis (PD) and haemodialysis (HD) are life-saving renal replacement therapies for more than 200,000 patients with chronic kidney disease in Europe, and this number increases annually. Although PD and HD have similar mortality rates, PD offers major advantages in terms of quality of life, costs, home-based treatment opportunities and early patient survival. Moreover, PD, rather than H ...

"""RNPnet"" - RNP structure, function and mechanism of action" (RNPNET)

Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2015,

RNA molecules are at the heart of life. It is now commonly admitted that nearly all the human genome is transcribed, and a wealth of new coding and non-coding RNAs have been discovered. Importantly, modern RNAs are never naked, but always exist in complex with proteins to form RNPs (Ribonucleoproteins). In the case of non-coding RNAs, these proteins are usually stably associated with the RNA and h ...

Incorporation of multiscale tissue-specific properties into musculoskeletal finite element modelling (TissSpecBoneFEM)

Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Feb 28, 2014,

Despite the remarkable advances in musculoskeletal biomechanics during the last decade, realistic physiological tissue-level strain fields in whole bones are not yet known as these cannot be measured experimentally and the numerical simulations targeting this aim either do not include microstructural and elastic information or investigate a sub-volume with simplified loading. However, this knowle ...

Theoretical and experimental study of vestibular otolith function towards treatment of associated equilibrium disorders (OTOLITH)

Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Jan 31, 2013,

"The EUFP7-PEOPLE-IRSES consortium OTOLITH brings togethers 2 EU organisations (based in Belgium and Germany) together with 2 non-EU organisations (based in Russia and Ukraine). The scientific programme aims at studying the vestibular otolith system, if disturbed often resulting in equilibrium disorders. Therefore, the different partners involved bring in specific expertise and resources. The Ukra ...
