Personalized diagnosis and treatment of hyperinsulinemic hypoglycaemia caused by beta-cell pathology (BETACURE)
Start date: Apr 1, 2014, End date: Mar 31, 2018,
Background:Hyperinsulinaemic hypoglycaemia (HH) is a potentially lethal disease caused by over functioning beta cells derived from the pancreatic islets of Langerhans. Lethal HH and brain damage is a problem especially in infants with congenital HH. Current therapeutic approaches are associated with severe side effects/morbidity (diabetes, exocrine pancreas insufficiency etc.) considered acceptabl ...

Improving Low Earth Orbit Security With Enhanced Electric Propulsion (LEOSWEEP)
Start date: Oct 21, 2013, End date: Nov 1, 2016,
The total mass of space debris in the low Earth orbit region is estimated to be close to 2,500 tons. About half of this mass is composed by rocket upper stages clustered in high inclination orbital regions. Because they are grouped in a relatively small number of families, acquiring the capability to deorbit just a few upper stage types would lead the way towards the elimination of hundreds of ton ...

European IPF Network: Natural course, Pathomechanisms and Novel Treatment Options in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (eurIPFnet)
Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2011,
In the eurIPFnet consortium, leading European basic and clinical scientists in the field of interstitial lung diseases associate to jointly decipher the natural course and molecular pathomechanisms of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) and to develop new therapeutic strategies for patients with IPF. This devastating disease affects about 360.000 patients in the EU and causes a substantial socioec ...
