Development of novel treatment strategies based on knowledge of cellular dysfunction in diabetes (BetaBat)
Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2015,
A reduction in functional pancreatic beta cell mass is the key feature of type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Beta cell failure is exacerbated in the context of obesity and insulin resistance. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) is a highly metabolic organ, mediating energy dissipation and glucose disposal, thus contributing to maintain energy balance. BAT dysfunction contributes to obesity and impaired glucose me ...

European Training Network on Cancer-Induced Bone Diseases (BONE-NET)
Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Jan 31, 2015,
Several cancers are prone to metastasize to bone. Combating bone metastasis, especially the early dissemination of cancer cells in bone, requires basic research knowledge, skills in different technologies and longstanding clinical experience in order to make clinically significant progress. BONE-NET is a european consortium with complementary expertises in the fields of cancer and bone. It brings ...

Genome-based biomarkers leading to validated molecular diagnostic tests for response prediction in breast cancer (RESPONSIFY)
Start date: Feb 1, 2012, End date: Jan 31, 2015,
Individualisation of cancer therapy based on standardized biomarker assays is one of the most demanding challenges in cancer medicine. In the RESPONSIFY consortium, we will integrate information on response prediction from different breast cancer types and methodologies into biomarker tests for targeted therapies in the clinical routine setting. Those tests will be developed for commercialisation ...
