Molecular Regulation of Dendritic Tree Formation during Neocortical Development (DENDRITICDEV)

Start date: Aug 1, 2014, End date: Dec 31, 2018,

"This grant would support the establishment of a dynamic research group in the field of molecular neurobiology at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm. The PI is a Portuguese national with a PhD from the University of London, and is currently a junior team leader at the Charité Medical University, Berlin.The group analyses the molecular regulation of neuronal dendritic tree formation during early ...

European Network of HIV/AIDS Cohort Studies to Coordinate at European and International Level Clinical Research on HIV/AIDS (EuroCoord)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

Over the past 15 years, EU-funded cohorts and collaborations (EuroSIDA, CASCADE and PENTA), have played a central role in developing our understanding of HIV progression and the effects of ART, enabling European expertise to contribute directly to the advances in patient diagnosis and management worldwide, and providing a continued surveillance mechanism for detection of emerging problems at a Eur ...

Towards the establishment of a permanent European Virtual Institute dedicated to Malaria Research (EVIMalaR) (EVIMalaR)

Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Mar 31, 2015,

This is a proposal from 55 partners from 36 institutes to form a NoE that will seek to integrate European malaria research that is directed towards a better understanding of the basic biology of the parasite, its vector and of the biology of the interactions between the parasite and both its mammalian host and vectors. All the member institutes and researchers have demonstrated both their excellen ...

New mechanisms of angiogenesis modulators in switching between white and brown adipose tissues (ANGIOFAT)

Start date: Mar 1, 2010, End date: Feb 28, 2015,

Understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying adipose blood vessel growth or regression opens new fundamentally insight into novel therapeutic options for the treatment of obesity and its related metabolic diseases such as type 2 diabetes and cancer. Unlike any other tissues in the body, the adipose tissue constantly experiences expansion and shrinkage throughout the adult life. Adipocytes in ...

TOWARDS THE ESTABLISHMENT OF A FRAMEWORK IN MALARIA BETWEEN THE AMRN AND EVIMALAR (Ozmalnet)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2014,

54 partners from 34 institutes have formed an EC-funded Network of Excellence (NoE) in basic malaria research, the European Virtual Institute for Malaria Research (EVIMalaR). Over the previous >5 years as the NoE Biomalpar these partners successfully broke down many barriers to cooperation pursuing a programme of integrated research. This was greatly assisted by the Biomalpar PhD School whose stud ...

European Initiative for basic research in Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (EIMID ITN)

Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Sep 30, 2014,

The overall objective of EIMID-ITN is to train ten early stage researchers to join the next generation of world experts in the biology of infectious diseases and specifically in the mechanisms of host-pathogen interaction. The project will be carried out within the highly successful European collaboration EIMID (European Initiative for Basic Research in Microbiology and Infectious Diseases) that b ...

Unravelling the mechanism for development of WASP-associated primary immunodeficiency (WASPSTINGS)

Start date: Apr 1, 2010, End date: Mar 31, 2014,

"Two severe primary immunodeficiencies; Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) and X-linked neutropenia (XLN), are caused by mutations in the same gene encoding the WAS protein (WASP). WASP is a hematopoietic cell-specific cytoskeletal regulator that coordinates receptor signalling to changes in the actin cytokeleton, thereby altering migratory, adhesive, phagocytic, and signalling responses. WAS is cause ...

Double infection by HSV-2 and HIV: how does HSV-2 infection facilitate for HIV infection? (APO-HSV-2/HIV)

Start date: Aug 1, 2008, End date: Jul 31, 2010,

"Globally, more than 40 million people are currently infected with HIV-1, with the vast majority of infections initiated at mucosal surfaces and approximately half of the world people now living with HIV are women. Herpes simplex type 2 (HSV-2) is one of the most common sexually transmitted viral diseases (STD) with an estimated prevalence of up to 50% among the female population worldwide giving ...
