 FINISHED 
Our society in Europe is still under prepared for the demographic changing situation of an ageing population which began several decades ago. This is visible in the age structure of the population and is reflected by the fact that the population aged 65 years and over is increasing in every European country. The growth in the elderly population may be explained by increased longevity, but at the s ...

 FINISHED 
The basic concept of our proposal is to develop nanoparticle-based encapsulated libraries of different immunotherapeutic biomolecules for treatment after surgery as part of a novel cancer management strategy. The current state-of-art for the management of cancer starts with surgery, after identification of an accessible tumour mass. Surgery remains an effective treatment option for many types of c ...

 FINISHED 
Mobility, important for well-being, is seriously impaired by chronic low back pain and osteoarthritis in many people due to degeneration of cartilaginous tissue of the intervertebral disc and joint. To develop a treatment for these diseases this ETN aims to combine expertise in novel highly advanced drug delivery carriers with dedicated targeting tools, state of the art imaging techniques and expe ...

eHealth in Rheumatology (ELECTOR)

Start date: Jan 1, 2015, End date: Mar 31, 2018,

The increasing number of chronic patients in rheumatology calls for further development of the traditional methods for monitoring symptoms. The aim of the ELECTOR project is to develop a web-based ICT platform for home-based monitoring of self-reliant patients with rheumatoid arthritis. This will provide clinicians with a tool that can completely substitute a large proportion of the conventional v ...

Molecular Imaging of Brain Pathophysiology (BrainPath)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2017,

BRAINPATH aims to build upon current developments in molecular imaging by creating an academic-industrial training and mobility network for the next revolution of imaging technology. Molecular in vivo imaging is a fertile area which combines expertise, state-of-art equipment and many disciplines and inter-sector work environments. Our goal is to better understand brain diseases and develop new pre ...

Targeting LRP5 to Increase Bone Formation in Osteoporosis (TALOS)

Start date: May 1, 2008, End date: Apr 30, 2011,

"The balance between bone resorption and bone formation determines the mass and structural integrity of the skeleton and is disturbed in osteoporosis. In contrast to the molecular mechanisms regulating bone resorption, knowledge of the mechanisms regulating bone formation is limited. A recent breakthrough has been the identification of a link between bone mass in humans with rare bone disorders an ...
