Laser Multiplexed Biosensor (GLAM)

Start date: May 1, 2015, End date: Apr 30, 2019,

Differential cancer diagnosis takes place daily in clinical settings for a better monitoring of patient responses to existing treatments. However outcome of this diagnosis is today still poor. Moreover, current technology to measure biomarker levels is expensive and sophisticated.Most cancer biomarker analysis use blood or biological tissues as the main source of material. These biopsies must be a ...

Gaining sage on the Epoetins' saga: assessing long term risks and advancing towards better Epoetin driven treatment modalities (EPOCAN)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2014,

EpoCan aims to develop and implement a comprehensive interdisciplinary strategy to assess the long-term risks of erythropoietin (EPO) and its derivatives (epoetins) on tumour growth progression and thromboembolic events in cancer patients, cardiovascular events, and the development of cancer in chronic kidney disease. Approximately 400,000 patients across Europe receive epoetins treatment each yea ...

Rehabilitation of a discrete sensory motor learning function by a prosthetic chip (ReNaChip)

Start date: Feb 1, 2008, End date: Jan 31, 2011,

The objective of this project is to develop a full biohybrid rehabilitation and substitution methodology; replacing the aged cerebellar brain circuit with a biomimetic chip bidirectionally interfaced to the inputs and outputs of the system. Information processing will interface with the cerebellum to actuate a normal, real-time functional behavioural recovery, providing a proof-of-concept test for ...
