Zebrafish Regulomics for Human Health (ZF-HEALTH)

Start date: Jul 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

In recent years, the zebrafish has emerged as a new vertebrate model organism for biomedical research which offers a unique combination of traits: a short generation time, small size and efficient breeding procedures make it the best choice among vertebrates for forward genetic screening and small-molecule screens, including toxicology, while the transparent embryo and larva offers unique opportun ...

Muscle Z-disk Protein Complexes: from atomic structure to physiological function (MUZIC)

Start date: Nov 1, 2009, End date: Jul 31, 2014,

Movement is vital to all living organisms, from the transport of single molecules in cells to the movement of entire organisms. Sarcomeres are the smallest cellular unit behind the operation of skeletal and heart muscles. Furthermore, dysfunctional sarcomeres are responsible for a long list of diseases that reduce the quality of life and burden the health care sector throughout the world. Understa ...

Indicators for biodiversity in organic and low-input farming systems (BioBio)

Start date: Mar 1, 2009, End date: Aug 31, 2012,

Organic and low-input farming systems have been shown to benefit farmland biodiversity although a generic indicator system to assess these benefits at the European level is lacking. The BIOBIO project will therefore pursue the following objectives: 1. Conceptualization of criteria for a scientifically-based selection of biodiversity indicators for organic/low-input farming systems; 2. Assessment ...
