INTEGRATION OF GENOMICS AND CARDIOMETABOLIC PLASMA BIOMARKERS FOR IMPROVED PREDICTION AND PRIMARY PREVENTION OF CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE (CARDIOPREVENT)
Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: Nov 30, 2016,
"By taking advantage of great experience in genetic and cardiovascular epidemiology and some of the largest cohorts in the world including 60 000 unique individuals, the applicant aims at (1) improving CVD risk prediction and (2) identifying mechanisms causally related to CVD development in order to provide novel targets for drug discovery and targeted life style interventions for use in primary p ...

Fast-Tracking Pathology via Automated Image Analysis and High-Performance Computing: Application to Prostate Cancer Diagnostics (FAST-PATH)
Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2015,
Histopathology has traditionally been a low-throughput, labour-intensive technique. Conventional manual annotation of tissue slides requires a pathologist to examine the tissue and cellular components to grade the level of disease progression. However, digital pathology and automated digital image analysis solutions can provide a more rapid solution. In recent years, there has been a rapid uptake ...

European Network for Genetic and Genomic Epidemiology (ENGAGE)
Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2012,
"ENGAGE (European Network for Genetic and Genomic Epidemiology) has, as its central objective, the translation of the wealth of data emerging from large-scale research efforts in molecular epidemiology into information of direct relevance to future advances in clinical medicine. ENGAGE will do this through the integration of very large-scale genetic and phenotypic data already available from a sub ...

Collaborative European effort to Develop Diabetes Diagnostics (CEED3)
Start date: Dec 1, 2008, End date: Nov 30, 2012,
"CEED3 (Collaborative European Effort to Develop Diabetes Diagnostics) has as its central objective, the development of diagnostic tools to differentiate specific subgroups of diabetic patients to allow individualisation of patient care. CEED3 will achieve this by integrating basic science findings from animal models, cell studies, and large scale genetic studies with clinical observations and tes ...

Minimizing Activity and Dose with Enhanced Image quality by Radiopharmaceutical Administrations (MADEIRA)
Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2010,
MADEIRA aims to improve 3D nuclear medical imaging technologies significantly. Achievements will be made in terms of reduction of radiation exposure, increase of spatial and temporal resolution. In consequence, the applied techniques will offer better and more detailed pictures for diagnosis obtained with less exposure to radioactivity. Due to the introduction of new diagnostic procedures such as ...
