Development of mouse mutant resources for functional analyses of human diseases - Enhancing the translation of research into innovation (INFRAFRONTIER-I3)
Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,
The mouse shows great similarities in development, physiology and biochemistry to humans, which makes it a key model for research into human disease. The major challenges for mouse functional genomics in the 21st century are to:• Develop a series of mutant alleles for every gene in the mouse genome• Determine the phenotypic consequences of each mutation• Identify mouse models for the complete dise ...

Innovative tools and strategies for surveillance and control of dengue (DengueTools)
Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Apr 30, 2016,
Current surveillance systems and control efforts are clearly insufficient to combat dengue in endemic countries and to prevent spread to previously uninfected areas (including Europe). We will focus on the following aspects of the call: better diagnosis, surveillance, prevention as well as prediction and/or prevention of the spread of Dengue fever to previously uninfected regions (including Europe ...

Epigenetics towards systems biology (EPIGENESYS)
Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Mar 31, 2016,
The ‘EpiGeneSys’ Network of Excellence aims to enable European epigenetics research to enter the arena of systems biology, a new step forward with major implications for human health. Many diseases, not explained solely by gene mutation, have rather been associated with epigenetic disorders. Following the identification of key epigenetic regulators, a move towards a systems biology approach is nee ...

Genetic and Epigenetic Networks in Cognitive Dysfunction (GENCODYS)
Start date: May 1, 2010, End date: Apr 30, 2015,
Mutations in about 400 different genes have been associated with Cognitive Disorders (CD), such as mental retardation, autism, neurodegenerative disorders, and psychiatric disorders. Whereas CD impose a major medical and socio-economical problem, there are no systematic studies that aim to provide insight into common mechanisms in CD. We propose a systems biology approach to gain insight into comm ...

Prostate Research Organizations-Network of Early Stage Training (PRO-NEST)
Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2013,
"New and recent developments have revolutionized the prostate cancer research and clinical arenas, requiring the next generation scientists to have comprehensive knowledge and expertise in basic, clinical and applied research. PRO-NEST offers young researchers a European integrated, multi-disciplinary training programme to become an independent and all-round scientist and team leader in (prostate) ...

Coordination of resources for conditional expression of mutated mouse alleles (CREATE)
Start date: Nov 1, 2008, End date: Oct 31, 2011,
"This proposal describes CREATE, an internationally based Coordination Action directly addressing a large scale data gathering activity for systematic conditional mouse mutagenesis. Advances in the sophisticated manipulation of the mouse genome has established the mouse as the premier organism for developing models of human disease. Internationally coordinated initiatives have established for the ...
