Implications of copy number variants of the genome in the etiology and progression of colorectal cancer (COLONGEVA)

Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2017,

"Cancer susceptibility genes involved in Mendelian inherited forms of colorectal cancer (CRC) (e.g., Lynch Syndrome) may account for only 5% of all CRC cases. However, increased cancer risk because of a positive family history may vary from 25 up to 40%, and the genetic basis for this familial aggregation remains largely unknown. Recently, high-resolution genomic strategies have revealed an unprec ...

Diagnosis of skin cancer using optics (DIAGNOPTICS)

Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2016,

DIAGNOPTICS deals with novel tools for the diagnosis and prognosis of skin cancer. Biophotonics-based tools for in-vivo and ex-vivo analysis of lesions will be combined in a pilot diagnostic workflow, which pursues using them as consecutive filters discarding benign lesions, and confirming the malignancy of others in order to guide them to surgery only when required. The in-vivo techniques will be ...

eVV - endoVascularVision: new endoscopic tools for real time vascular assisted vision (ENDO-VV)

Start date: Sep 1, 2010, End date: Aug 31, 2014,

"One of the main goals in endoscopic surgery is to improve reproducibility and safety by means of computer assisted systems to improve the surgeon’s vision. The main objective of this Transfer of Knowledge action is to conduct a common research programme leading to the development of new endoscopic assisted vision tools for real time enhanced identification of blood vessels (vascular vision). To t ...

Fixed Dose Combination drugs for Secondary Cardiovascular Prevention (FOCUS)

Start date: Jul 1, 2010, End date: Jun 30, 2014,

Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the leading cause of death worldwide, and their incidence is increasing sharply in developing countries. Two insufficiently addressed factors contribute to increased morbidity and mortality, threatening the effectiveness of any health system: poor patient adherence to treatment, and limited access to medication in resource-poor countries and regions. To address th ...
