Interplay between influenza viruses and host SUMO pathways (SUMOFLU)

Start date: Feb 1, 2014, End date: Jan 31, 2019,

"Influenza viruses cause a significant seasonal disease burden and continually threaten to initiate human pandemics. Antivirals are available for treatment of influenza, however drug-resistant viruses often emerge. Thus, there is urgent need to develop new antivirals with lower chances of selecting resistance. As viruses rely extensively on cellular functions, one way to minimise resistance is to ...

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 ...

Compound Semiconductors for 3D integration (COMPOSE3)

Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2016,

COMPOSE3 aims to develop 3D stacked circuits in the front end of line of Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) technology, based on high mobility channel materials. The final objective is a 3D stacked SRAM cell, designed with gates length taken from the 14nm technology node. This technology will provide a new paradigm shift in density scaling combined with a dramatic increase in the power ...

A Toolbox for Photon Orbital Angular Momentum Technology (PHORBITECH)

Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Sep 30, 2013,

Description  Orbital angular momentum (OAM) is a degree of freedom of light associated with rotationally structured transverse spatial modes of light beams, as in helical wave-front beams. In many respects OAM is analogous to polarization, but in contrast to polarization it is defined in an unbounded infinite-dimensional space. This may allo ...

A PHArmacogenomic study of Statins in the Elderly at risk for cardiovascular disease (PHASE)

Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Jun 30, 2012,

"Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in industrialized countries. The prevention of cardiovascular disease is critically dependent on lipid lowering therapy, which includes the 3-hydroxymethyl-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors (statins). Although statins are the most prescribed class of drugs worldwide, and therapy is generally associated with a reduction ...

Advanced Arterial Hypotension Adverse Event prediction through a Novel Bayesian Neural Network (AVERT-IT)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Jul 31, 2011,

Hypotension (sub-normal blood pressure) adverse events (AE's) occur commonly in patients managed in intensive care and high dependency units. Health care technology which could reduce the burden of these events by as little as ten percent would equate to at least five billion Euros p.a. saved by European healthcare organisations for use in other treatment regimensThe AVERT-IT project will create ...

A new platform for fast molecular detection of MDR and XDR resistant strains of M. tuberculosis and of drug resistant malaria (TM-REST)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2011,

"Recent developments in molecular tools combined with updated epidemiological data provide novel challenges to the development of modern molecular diagnostics. The increasing threat of infections due to Mycobacterium tuberculosis, including multidrug-resistant (MDR) and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) infections poses important questions that call for development of integrated tools for rapid dia ...
