Advanced T-cell Engineered for Cancer Therapy (ATECT)

Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2018,

"T-cell engineering strategies for Cancer therapy, either Chimeric Antigen Receptors (CARs) or TCR transfer holds promise to revolutionize cancer treatment. There are, however, considerable barriers to be overcome to take this form of therapy to a format that can benefit all EU citizens with a wide range of common cancers. The aim of this consortium is to exploit advances in T-cell engineering to ...

Stem Cells for Relevant Efficient Extended and Normalized Toxicology (SCR&TOX)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

In the development of products for use by humans it is vital to identify compounds with toxic properties at an early stage of their development, to avoid spending time and resource on unsuitable and potentially unsafe candidate products. Human pluripotent stem cell lines offer a unique opportunity to develop a wide variety of human cell-based test systems because they may be expanded indefinitely ...

New-to-nature biosurfactants by metabolic engineering: production and application (BIOSURFING)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2015,

"This project aims to create new-to-nature and tailor-made biosurfactants through metabolic engineering of the unconventional yeast Candida bombicola. Biosurfactants produced by fermentation offer a worthy alternative to traditional surfactants, which are typically derived from non-renewable petrochemical resources and may cause environmental problems due to their ecotoxicity and poor biodegradabi ...
