A CANcer Development mOnitor (CanDo)

Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Feb 28, 2017,

Through further development, integration and validation of micro-nano-bio and biophotonics systems from previous projects CanDo will develop an instrument that will permit the identification and concentration determination of rare cells in peripheral blood for two key societal challenges, early and low cost anti-cancer drug efficacy determination and cancer diagnosis/monitoring.A cellular link bet ...

OncoTrack - Methods for systematic next generation oncology biomarker development (ONCOTRACK)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

We propose here an exhaustive analysis of the genome, exome, methylome and transcriptome of primary tumours and metastases from patients with colon carcinoma, based on a combination of deep sequencing and chip based techniques. Dependent on their availability, we shall also perform analyses of tumor stem cells, circulating tumor cells, free tumor DNA in serum and xenografts derived from the same p ...

NOROSENSOR - A real-time monitoring system for airborne norovirus (NOROSENSOR)

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

Gastroenteritis, caused by the airborne Norovirus, is the third most deadly infectious disease worldwide, infecting ~4% of the population annually, worldwide, and has related costs measured in billions € annually in the EU alone. Today, detection of airborne viruses can only be done in retrospect in the laboratory, which severely limits the ability to rapidly react and limit the spread of an outbr ...

Cancer Responsiveness Monitoring based on Resistance mutations in CTCs (CAREMORE)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2016,

Today's treatment of metastatic breast cancer is guided by characterisation of the primary tumour while 90% of deaths due to breast cancer occur as a consequence of metastases. Given important differences in molecular characteristics between metastases and primary tumour tissue, characterization of metastatic tumours instead of the primary tumour may provide better treatment guidance for patients ...

New approaches to the study of membrane-protein folding in vivo and in silico (MEMFOLD)

Start date: Apr 1, 2009, End date: Mar 31, 2015,

Membrane proteins are central players in many if not most cellular processes: cell-cell interaction, signal transduction, nerve conduction, small molecule transport, macromolecular trafficking, etc. A growing number of high-resolution membrane protein structures provide important insights not only into function but also into the general structural constraints imposed by the lipid bilayer. In cont ...

Point-Of-Care MONitoring and DIagnostics for Autoimmune Diseases (POCEMON)

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

The POCEMON project aims to the hardware and software development of a multi-purpose autoimmune diseases diagnostic platform by combining Lab-on-Chip (LOC) technologies, genomic microarrays of HLA (human leukocyte antigens) typing, microelectronics, mobile devices, intelligent algorithms and wireless communications. The multi-purpose platform will be provided as a portable integrated platform with ...
