Lifecourse biological pathways underlying social differences in healthy ageing (LIFEPATH)
Start date: May 1, 2015, End date: Apr 30, 2019,
"The dramatic differentials in healthy ageing, quality of life and life expectancy between individuals of different socioeconomic groups, is a major societal challenge facing Europe. The overarching aim of the LIFEPATH project is to understand the determinants of diverging ageing pathways among individuals belonging to different socio-economic groups. This will be achieved via an original study de ...

MicroRNAs in the Pathogenesis, Treatment and Prevention of Epilepsy (EPIMIRNA)
Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2018,
Epilepsy is a major burden for patients and health systems worldwide. It is a common chronic neurological disorder affecting people of all ages, and the shortfall in existing treatments means that 30% of patients continue to suffer uncontrolled seizures. MicroRNAs (miRNA) are a recently-discovered, network-level layer of gene expression regulation that controls protein levels of entire signaling p ...

Peptide-based diodes for solar cells (PEPDIODE)
Start date: Aug 1, 2011, End date: Jul 31, 2015,
In a solar cell that converts energy as efficient as the natural plant photosystems, electrons should travel over very short distances, through an extremely ordered structure free of traps. Guided by these principles that were worked out at WIS and CUNY, we want to synthesize many different peptides, and consecutively screen variants thereof for a putative diode function. When linked to light-harv ...

A novel concept for support to diagnosis and remote management of tremor (NeuroTREMOR)
Start date: Feb 1, 2012, End date: Jan 31, 2015,
Tremor is the most common movement disorder and is strongly increasing in incidence and prevalence with ageing. The most frequent types of tremor are those arising from two neurodegenerative disorders: Parkinson's disease and essential tremor. Although not life threatening, upper limb tremors hamper independent life of 65% of those suffering from them, greatly impacting on their quality of life. T ...

Integration of Self-management and Paliation: Implications for Health policy and nursing education
Start date: Sep 16, 2010,
The nursing experts from two European Union (EU) institutions and two United States (US) institutions and associated networks will reassess traditional approaches to the self-management of chronic ill-health, including palliative care, education and practice standards, across the continuum of patient care, in the age range aged 40 through 100. Research and key policy documents will be examined fo ...
