OPtimization of Treatment and Management of Schizophrenia in Europe (OPTiMiSE) (OPTiMiSE)

Start date: Feb 1, 2010, End date: Jul 31, 2016,

OPTiMiSE (OPtimization of Treatment and Management of Schizophrenia in Europe) will focus on two goals: optimising current treatments in Schizophrenia and explore novel therapeutic options for schizophrenia. The project intends to both address basic, but so far unanswered, questions in the treatment of schizophrenia and develop new and experimental interventions. It is expected that the project wi ...

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 ...

Dissecting the Immunological Interplay between Poverty Related Diseases and Helminth Infections: An African-European Research Initiative (IDEA)

Start date: Mar 1, 2010, End date: Aug 31, 2015,

Worm infections are receiving increased attention due to: the wide geographic overlap in occurrence between worms and HIV, TB and malaria; the large proportion of individuals (minimal estimates around 25%) co-infected with worms and HIV/TB/ malaria; the potential risk of increasing disease burden; the very limited understanding of the impact by worm infections on HIV-, TB- and malaria-specific imm ...

Treatment of reperfusion injury using a mitochondrial targeted approach: towards a better understanding of the disease (MITOCARE)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2013,

"Current interventional treatment of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) focused on re-establishing cardiac reperfusion has significantly improved clinical outcome by reducing infarct size and mortality due to cardiac ischemia.It is now recognized that events triggered at reperfusion also result in cell death and may account for as much as 50% of the infarct volume, this being termed ischemia-reperf ...

Role of Ebf3 in the distribution of Cajal-Retzius cells (Neuromigration)

Start date: Nov 1, 2010, End date: Oct 31, 2012,

Cell migration is a fundamental process during mammalian brain development since all neurons migrate to their final location. Cajal-Retzius (CR) cells are transient neurons that control the laminar organization of the cerebral cortex and form a monolayer at its the surface. It has been shown that CR cells are generated by focal sources surrounding the cerebral cortex and disperse on its surface. H ...

European Network of Bipolar Research Expert Centres (ENBREC)

Start date: Jul 1, 2009, End date: Jun 30, 2011,

"Bipolar (BP) disorder is characterized by recurrent manic and depressive episodes, affecting more than 1% of the EU population. Delay in the diagnosis (based only on clinical features), uncertainties in the definition of episodes and on the treatment strategy best adapted to each patient lead to devastating socio-economic, professional and family consequences that be reverted by optimized diagnos ...
