European Medical Information Framework (EMIF)
Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2017,
In response to the need to tackle increasingly complex medical research questions, a growing amount of human health data is being collected, either in routine Electronic Healthcare Record (EHR) databases, through research-driven cohort studies, in biobanks or related efforts. However, data sources are typically fragmented and contain information gaps which prevent their full exploitation. EMIF aim ...

European large-scale functional genomics in the rat for translational research (EURATRANS)
Start date: Apr 1, 2010, End date: Mar 31, 2015,
Genetic studies in model organisms and humans, including human genome-wide association studies, have pinpointed genomic regions that contribute susceptibility to common disease. However, to date, these data have provided limited insights into the genes, molecular pathways and mechanisms underlying disease pathophysiology.The EU FP6 Euratools consortium has been a remarkable success that establishe ...

Sharing capacity across Europe in high-throughput sequencing technology to explore genetic variation in health and disease (GEUVADIS)
Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2013,
"High-throughput next-generation DNA sequencing technologies allow investigators to sequence entire human genomes at an affordable price and within a short time frame. The correct interpretation, storage, and dissemination of the large amount of produced genomics data generate major challenges. Tackling these challenges requires extensive exchange of data, information and knowledge between medical ...

Building a biological knowledge-base on fish lifecycles for competitive, sustainable European aquaculture (LIFECYCLE)
Start date: Feb 1, 2009, End date: Jul 31, 2013,
LIFECYCLE (14 partners, 9 countries) will deliver a knowledge-base to improve competitiveness and sustainability of European aquaculture, through a combination of question-problem driven approaches. The focus will be on early developmental events, growth and environmental adaptation throughout the lifecyle, and on the physiology and immunology of key life-stage transitions, such as metamorphosis, ...

Genomic variations underlying common behavior diseases and cognition trait in human populations (ADAMS)
Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2012,
"The subject of the proposal is the search and analysis of genomic variations underlying Alzheimer's disease (AD), alcoholism and schizophrenia – wide-spread diseases in human populations. Schizophrenia and alcoholism are common forms of behavior pathology and disability in adult life. AD is a most common form of dementia in human populations. Though the genomic variations presumably associated wi ...

"Systems-Level, Multi-layer Understanding of Cellular Responses to Ionizing Radiation" (TRIREME)
Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2011,
"The TRIREME project aims at developing and implementing a multidisciplinary strategy for a systems-level analysis of a cornerstone of cellular homeostasis – the DNA damage response (DDR). The DDR is a complex signaling network that is responsible for maintaining the stability and integrity of the cellular genome in the face of DNA damage. DDR defects underlie acute and chronic forms of human ailm ...

Biobanking and Biomolecular Resources Research Infrastructure (BBMRI)
Start date: Feb 1, 2008, End date: Jan 31, 2011,
The Preparatory Phase for a pan-European Biobanking and Biomolecular Resources Research Infrastructure (BBMRI) will focus on technical, legal, governance, and financial issues to • prepare to construct BBMRI, building on existing biobanks, resources and technologies, specifically complemented with innovative components and properly embedded into European scientific, ethical, legal and societal fra ...
