SYSTEMS GLYCOBIOLOGY OF GASTRIC CANCER (GASTRICGLYCOEXPLORER)
Start date: May 1, 2013, End date: Apr 30, 2018,
This ITN is built around the biological question of O-glycosylation in gastric cancer for training in systems glycobiology. For meeting the needs of the research goal and for training for future systems glycobiology operations, cross disciplinary international institutes have been identified with top level state-of-the-art glycobioanalytical, glycotechnological and glycobioinformatics platforms. T ...

Cytological Training at European Standard through Telepathology
Start date: Sep 1, 2014, End date: Aug 31, 2017,
The Project focuses on the area of Cytology, intended for the screening and diagnoses of Cancers of different organs. Cytological tests are performed in number of millions/year in Europe, with an objective need of standardizing quality levels. The necessary training of the professionals involved (Cytotechs, Cytoscreeners, Biologists, Pathologists) in the different European nations is based on Cour ...

Dengue research Framework for Resisting Epidemics in Europe (DENFREE)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2016,
"WHO estimates that one of the main consequences of global warming will be an increased burden of vector-borne diseases. Among these, dengue appears to be particularly problematic, with tens of millions of cases of dengue fever estimated to occur annually, including up to 500,000 cases of the life-threatening dengue hemorrhagic fever/dengue shock syndrome. In recent years, the global burden of den ...

A European Initial Training Network on the History, Archaeology, and New Genetics of the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade (EUROTAST)
Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2015,
The principal aim of this ITN is to examine the history of the transatlantic slave trade and its legacies from a variety of different angles. The idea is to hire thirteen Early Stage Researchers (ESRs) and two Experienced Researchers (ERs) across Europe and a wide range of disciplines, including history, archaeology, sociology, heritage studies and genetics, to investigate various aspects of the s ...

Integrated Micro-Nano-Opto Fluidic systems for high-content diagnosis and studies of rare cancer cells (CAMINEMS)
Start date: Jul 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2012,
The project aims at developing a new integrated and automated microfluidic tool for cancer cells screening. This instrument will have a reliability and power much beyond state of the art (capture yield increased by a factor from 10X to 100X and multimodal typing of the cells in 3D high resolution images), allowing earlier and more accurate diagnosis, prognosis and selection of treatments of cancer ...

Discovery of novel cancer serum biomarkers based on aberrant post translational modifications of O-glycoproteins (O-PTM-Biomarkers) and their application to early detection of cancer (O-PTM-Biomarkers)
Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2011,
Early detection accomplished through an efficient screening programme remains the most promising approach to improve the long-term survival of cancer patients. Therefore there is a pressing need for the development of biomarkers, which detect the early changes for cancers where clinical symptoms only appear when the cancer has progressed, and treatment is ineffective. Our proposal, which addresses ...
