Comorbidity and Synapse Biology in Clinically Overlapping Psychiatric Disorders (COSYN)
Start date: Jan 1, 2016, End date: Dec 31, 2020,
COSYN integrates outstanding European academic and three large Pharma to exploit genomic findings for intellectual disability (ID), autism, and schizophrenia. We capitalise on comorbidity, from clinic to cells and synapses, and have access to large existing samples. We focus on rare genetic variants of strong effect in patients with clinical comorbidity. Our aims are: (1) Understand comorbidity by ...

Targets and biomarkers for antiepileptogenesis (EPITARGET)
Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2018,
Epilepsy is a devastating condition affecting over 50 million people worldwide. This multidisciplinary project is focused on the process leading to epilepsy, epileptogenesis, in adults. Our main hypothesis is that there are combinations of various causes, acting in parallel and/or in succession, that lead to epileptogenesis and development of seizures. Our central premise and vision is that a comb ...

European stem cell consortium for neural cell replacement, reprogramming and functional brain repair (Neurostemcellrepair)
Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2017,
...The research plan is constructed on exchange of tools, sharing of protocols and expertise and joint deliverables among the participants. We will address issues related to the control of progenitor proliferation and differentiation into authentic, functional and phenotypically stable dopaminergic or striatal neurons, and exploit new technology for cell reprogramming. We will develop strategies to o ...

IMAging GEnetics for MENtal Disorders (IMAGEMEND)
Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2017,
"Mental disorders are leading causes of disability, absence from work and premature retirement in Europe. While magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) facilities are broadly available and a vast research literature exists, few neuroimaging applications have reached clinical practice in psychiatry. A major problem is that mental illnesses are currently diagnosed as discrete entities defined clinically. I ...
