Biomarker Development for Postoperative Cognitive Impairment in the Elderly (BioCog)
Start date: Feb 1, 2014, End date: Jan 31, 2019,
Postoperative delirium (POD) is characterized by the progressive deterioration of sensory/cognitive function after surgery with incidences of up to 30-80%. It is frequently followed by postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) which tends to persist over time. In elderly patients, POCD resembles chronic dementia and appears to accelerate the cognitive decline in Alzheimer dementia. POD is strongl ...

Image-guided pancreatic cancer therapy (iPaCT)
Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Dec 31, 2017,
The aim of the iPaCT project is to address the unmet clinical need for an improved therapy of pancreatic cancer by developing a new integrated technology platform for image-guided thermal therapy. Yearly, 280000 new cases of pancreatic cancer are diagnosed worldwide. Being usually diagnosed late stage and without any efficient therapy available, basically all patients die with an average life expe ...
