A systems biology approach to RESOLVE the molecular pathology of two hallmarks of patients with metabolic syndrome and its co-morbidities; hypertriglyceridemia and low HDL-cholesterol (RESOLVE)
Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2017,
"Through combining basic pre-clinical and clinical research, network analysis and computational modelling, RESOLVE aims at resolving the disturbed dynamics and mechanisms underlying the high triglyceride (HTG) and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) phenotype and insulin resistance in patients with metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its associated co-morbidities (cardiovascular disease, CV ...

Using chemical-biology to synthesis and study nuclear receptor proteins (CHEMbioNMR)
Start date: Apr 1, 2012, End date: Mar 31, 2014,
The rapidly growing field of Chemical Biology combines the power of synthetic chemistry with the spectrum of micro- and molecular biology techniques, thus important challenges in medicine can be addressed in revolutionary new ways. This innovative methodology allows problems associated with studying diseases and designing novel drug-like molecules to be tackled in a unique approach. A recent examp ...

Disc-degeneration linked pathologies: novel biomarkers and diagnostics for targeting treatment and repair (Genodisc)
Start date: Mar 1, 2008, End date: Feb 28, 2013,
Disorders arising from degeneration of the intervertebral disc are an enormous clinical and financial burden on European societies. Most of the burden arises from 10% of patients who become chronically disabled. Any factor which will improve treatment of back pain sufferers or prevent development of chronic disability would have an important impact both on society and in improving quality of life ...

Osteoporotic Virtual Physiological Human (VPHOP)
Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Oct 31, 2012,
Nearly four million osteoporotic bone fractures cost the European health system more than 30 billion Euro per year. This figure could double by 2050. After the first fracture, the chances of having another one increase by 86%. We need to prevent osteoporotic fractures. The first step is an accurate prediction of the patient-specific risk of fracture that considers not only the skeletal determin ...
