Fast Assay for Pathogen Identification and Characterisation (FAPIC)

Start date: May 1, 2015, End date: Apr 30, 2020,

The emergence of highly diverse resistance mechanisms among pathogens requires their detailed analysis to guarantee an efficient medical treatment. The gold standard in clinical diagnostics is based on the cultivation of bacteria and their phenotypical characterisation. However, these methods are labour-intensive and time-consuming lasting in some cases up to a few weeks. Thus, faster diagnostic t ...

Position and Personalize Advanced Human Body Models for Injury Prediction (PIPER)

Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Apr 30, 2017,

"In passive safety, human variability is currently difficult to account for using crash test dummies and regulatory procedures. However, vulnerable populations such as children and elderly need to be considered in the design of safety systems in order to further reduce the fatalities by protecting all users and not only so called averages.Based on the finite element method, advanced Human Body Mod ...

European Clinical trials in Rare Sarcomas within an integrated translational trial network (EUROSARC)

Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: Nov 30, 2016,

Sarcomas are rare malignant tumors, with an overall incidence of 6/105/year. Bone and soft tissue connective tissue tumours encompass more than 50 different rare histotypes and more than 150 different molecular subtypes. The incidence of individual rare sarcomas subtypes is often less than 0.5/105/year. Given sarcoma rarity as a group, but even more as individual entities, few prospective clinical ...

ASSESSMENT OF THE SAFETY OF LABAS IN ASTHMA IN ROUTINE CARE BY COMBINING HEALTH-CARE DATABASES AND DIRECT PATIENT FOLLOW-UP (ASTRO-LAB)

Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: May 31, 2016,

Background: The efficacy of long-acting β-agonists (LABAs) in asthma has been demonstrated but their safety remains an issue, particularly in children. Co-therapy with inhaled corticosteroids (ICs) is recommended in persistent asthma. However, drug-use studies suggest frequently inadequate IC adherence, possibly explaining the occurrence of exacerbations. There is a need for detailed analyses of p ...

Intelligent Mold for Productivity Enhancement (Mold4ProdE)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2013,

The constant demand for diversified/personalised consumers' goods leads to decrease time-to-market, and to plastic injection molds with smaller batch production, with no stock acceptable for cost and quality reasons. This generates huge productivity losses in the molding industry: - Tool Tuning is too long for tool makers before delivery of a turn key mold. - New production run set-up time is too ...

Novel Polysaccharide Modifying Enzymes to Optimise the Potential of Hydrocolloids for Food and Medical Applications (PolyModE)

Start date: May 1, 2009, End date: Apr 30, 2013,

The PolyModE project convenes an international, interdisciplinary, and intersectorial consortium to identify, characterise, and optimise novel polysaccharide modifying enzymes, and to develop robust fermentation strategies for their large-scale production, to exploit the potential of biopolymers for food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and technical applications. We have selected the six complex carboh ...
