Monitoring of Animals for Feed-related Risks in the Long Term (MARLON)

Start date: Aug 1, 2012, End date: Jul 31, 2015,

While there are many European scientific activities for each of the items related to either animal health or the occurrence of GM ingredients in animal feed, the proposed MARLON project will be unique in bringing these widely different fields of scientific expertise together for the cross-disciplinary task of developing an epidemiological model for the case-specific monitoring of potential health ...

The proposal deals with the establishment of control measures for two major tick-borne diseases of small ruminants: theileriosis caused by Theileria lestoquardi and T. uilenbergi and babesiosis caused by Babesia ovis. The research programme aims at improving existing and producing new attenuated vaccines, designing subunit vaccines and capability building. To achieve these goals the proposal will ...

Mycoplasma (M.) hyopneumoniae is the causative agent of porcine enzootic pneumonia (EP). This disease, leading to reduced weight gain, reduced feed conversion and increasing use of antibiotics, is one of the major health problems in the pig production throughout Europe. The epidemiology of EP is influenced by several factors including management, hygiene, virulence of the M. hyopneumoniae strain a ...

"Whilst the biomechanical determinants of a chewing cycle are essential components of the primate feeding system from an evolutionary and a clinical perspective, lack of experimental studies have resulted in the construction of oversimplified and biologically inconsistent computer simulation models. Such models have been employed to answer hypotheses regarding feeding biomechanics and dietary ecol ...

Despite major efforts, identifying susceptibility genes for common human diseases - cancer, cardiovascular, inflammatory and neurological disorders - is difficult due to the complexity of the underlying causes. The dog population is composed of ~ 400 purebred breeds; each one is a genetic isolate with unique characteristics resulting from persistent selection for desired attributes or from geneti ...

ChIP and MIRA for clinical diagnosis (DIA-ChIP)

Start date: Jul 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2012,

DIA-ChIP seeks to develop state-of-the-art molecular techniques for the routine high-throughput analysis of clinical samples for advanced molecular diagnosis and biomedical research. This will be achieved through a collaborative partnership between academic, SME and public health partners interacting through the IAPP, and the secondments and recruitments it supports. New molecular diagnostics in c ...
