Sensing and integration of signals governing cell polarity and tropism in fungi (FUNGIBRAIN)
Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2017,
"Cell polarity and directed growth (tropism) are fundamental biological processes. Most fungi are dependent on these processes because they grow as polarised filaments called hyphae, whose growth and developmentare governed by physical and chemical cues from the environment. Such cues include surface-contact, light, nutrients, mating partners, host organisms, or ‘self’ hyphae from within the fung ...

Novel antifungals to treat resistant organisms (NOFUN)
Start date: Jul 1, 2013, End date: Jun 30, 2016,
"Invasive fungal diseases are estimated to kill 1.5 million people each year. The incidence of mortality has risen significantly across the EU over the last 20 years due to an expansion of at risk patient populations. Given the obvious importance of these diseases it is perhaps surprising that only four classes of drug are available to treat systemic fungal infection. The azole class of antifungal ...

Pathogenomics and Systems Biology of Fungal Infections – An Integrative Approach (FINSysB)
Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2012,
The vision of the FINSysB Network is to generate bright, ambitious and well-trained young researchers capable of contributing significantly to the knowledge-base and economy of the European Union. We will achieve this goal by providing a strong, multidisciplinary training for early stage and experienced researchers in the pathobiology, genomics, molecular biology, bioinformatics and systems biolo ...
