 FINISHED 
How blood cells and ultimately hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) arise from uncommitted cells during development is only vaguely understood. Especially the initial formation of the first blood precursors in lateral mesoderm has been difficult to dissect. Investigating these early mechanisms of blood cell fate determination with genetic model systems provides a vital starting point for therapeutic dr ...

Zebrafish Regulomics for Human Health (ZF-HEALTH)

Start date: Jul 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

In recent years, the zebrafish has emerged as a new vertebrate model organism for biomedical research which offers a unique combination of traits: a short generation time, small size and efficient breeding procedures make it the best choice among vertebrates for forward genetic screening and small-molecule screens, including toxicology, while the transparent embryo and larva offers unique opportun ...

Circuit specific approaches to retinal diseases (RETICIRC)

Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2011,

"The RETICIR project focuses on neuronal mechanisms of vision from photoreceptor level to visual cortex. Physiological knowledge of the visual system will be used to address pathophysiological neuronal mechanisms of diseases affecting vision. In the project we will identify molecular and cellular disease mechanism of retinitis pigmentosa and glaucoma, and will demonstrate restoration of vision in ...
