Cancer Genomics of the Kidney (CAGEKID)

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

The International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) has the goal of obtaining a comprehensive description of genomic, transcriptomic and epigenomic changes in 50 different tumour types and/or subtypes, with the aim of elucidating the genomic changes present in the many forms of cancers that contribute to the burden of disease throughout the world. We present a proposal for a European contribution to ...

High throughput molecular diagnostics in individual patients for genetic diseases with heterogeneous clinical presentation (TECHGENE)

Start date: Feb 1, 2009, End date: Jan 31, 2012,

"Since the sequencing of the human genome has been completed the demand for genetic analysis in the human health care system is drastically increasing, and the extension of molecular genetic diagnostics is urgently needed. However, the majority of genetic diseases is molecularly and clinically highly heterogeneous, and until recently the available techniques lacked the required capacity to analyze ...

Set up and comparison of multiple stem cell approaches for kidney repair (STAR-T REK)

Start date: Nov 1, 2008, End date: Oct 31, 2011,

"With the increasing rate of end-stage renal failure and limited alternatives for its treatment, potential regenerative approaches for kidney damages are urgently needed. Because of the complexity of the organ, the development of stem cell therapies for kidney is still in its infancy. Identifying which cell types are capable of beneficial effects is the critical step required to realize the potent ...
