Developmental neurotoxicity assessment of mixtures in children (DENAMIC)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
Various recent epidemiological studies have indicated that exposure to low doses of environmental biologically active contaminants during human development can alter gene expression and have deleterious effects on cognitive development in childhood. The DENAMIC project is ultimately focused on reducing such effects of environmental contamination on learning and developmental disorders in children. ...

ROLE OF THE MICROBIOTA IN THE DEFENSE AGAINST ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANT PATHOGENS (FLORA STOP INFECTION)
Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: Nov 30, 2015,
Antibiotic resistant bacteria, such as Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE) or carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (KPC), are an increasing problem in hospitalized patients and commonly cause infections following antibiotic therapy. Infections with these opportunistic pathogens generally begin by colonization of the intestinal epithelium. Our intestinal tract is inhabited by hundreds of ...

High throughput sequencing to reveal the causes and consequences of Mycobacterium tuberculosis genomic variation (MTB variation)
Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Aug 31, 2013,
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the causative agent of tuberculosis in humans, is estimated to infect one third of the human population leading to circa two million deaths a year. While many work has been done onto the socio-economic and host factors affecting the different outcomes of the disease, little is still known about the possible influence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain variation. ...
