Immunoglobulin IgY pseudomonas A clinical trial for cystic fibrosis treatment (IMPACTT)
Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2016,
"Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a chronically debilitating and life threatening medical condition. Respiratory insufficiency and complications of chronic lung infection lead to long term reduction in quality of life and health and even to premature death. Chronic bacterial infections with Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA), Staphylococcus aureus and Haemophilus influezae are typical for CF and repeated courses ...

Advanced Systems for Wood Fire Protection (ReactaFire)
Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2015,
Wood is an important construction material (over 70% of people in the developed world live in timber frame housing) as it performs well as an engineering material and compared to other commonly used construction materials it is more sustainable. However, timber is combustible, unlike concrete or steel, and this has significant implications for how it is used within the construction industry as the ...

Unbiased Biomarkers for the Prediction of Respiratory Disease Outcomes (U-BIOPRED)
Start date: Oct 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2015,
RationaleThe inability of pre-clinical studies to predict clinical efficacy is a major bottleneck in drug development. In severe asthma this bottleneck results from: a lack of useful and validated biomarkers, underperforming pre-clinical models, inadequate and incomplete sub-phenotyping, and insufficient disease understanding.HypothesisThe use of biomarker profiles comprised of various types of hi ...
