APOPIS - Abnormal proteins in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders
Degenerative disorders of the nervous system including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Huntington's, motor neuron and prion diseases are among the most debilitating illnesses, putting an enormous strain on both social and health care budgets in Europe. As these diseases progress, all but the most ...

ACCESS - Autonomic Complex Communication nEtworks, Signals and Systems

PIDNET - A Chinese Network for Primary Immunodeficiency
We have previously created a network for colleagues working on the genetics of primary immunodeficiency diseases (PID) and their treatment within the EU. This project is one of the finalists for the Descartes Prize in 2005. We extended this work to encompass the NAS countries in 2001, again within ...

ALLOMICROVAC - A combined microbicidal-immunizing strategy against SIV and HIV infection
The objective of the proposed project is to establish proof of concept that a tri-molecular construct, consisting of MHC antigens combined with microbial HSP70 and extracellular CCR5 can be utilized in microbicidal, preventive and therapeutic immunisation. This strategy utilizes a novel ...

MOLTOOLS - Advanced molecular tools for array-based analyses of genomes, transcriptomes, proteomes, and cells
The recording of complete genome sequences provides for the first time opportunities to comprehensively characterize the flow of information from genetic variation at the DNA level, over messages expressed as RNA, and on to their protein products, and to functions of the cell. By eavesdropping on ...

EUROHEAR - Advances in hearing science : from functional genomics to therapies
EuroHear has two closely inter-related objectives.These are (1 )to provide fundamental knowledge about the development and function of the inner ear,and (2) to identify the molecular defects underlying hereditary hearing impairments (HI), including presbycusis,one of the most frequent forms of ...

EMBRACE - A European Model for Bioinformatics Research and Community Education
The objective of this network is to draw together a wide group of experts throughout Europe who are involved in the use of information technology in the biomolecular sciences. The EMBRACE network will optimise informatics and information exploitation by pure and applied biological scientists in ...

BIOSAPIENS - A European Network for Integrated Genome Annotation
The objective of the BIOSAPIENS Network of Excellence is to provide an infrastructure to support a large scale, concerted effort to annotate genome data by laboratories distributed around Europe. This will use both informatics tools and input from experimentalists. Experimental validation of a ...

PROCARDIS - A genome-wide mapping and functional genomics approach to elucidating PRecOcious Coronary ARtery DISease
A programme is proposed, by an established European consortium, that will exploit advances in complex trait genetics and functional genomics to discover novel susceptibility genes for coronary artery disease (CAD). The aim is to identify novel proteins and pathways implicated in atherosclerosis and ...

Aging Research Centre
Aging Research Centre (ARC) is a multidisciplinary center focused on aging research in which both the medical university Karolinska Institutet (KI) and Stockholm University (SU) are collaborating. The administration of the center is placed at the Division of Geriatric Epidemiology, Department of ...
