Novel radical chemistry for complex peptide synthesis and engineering (NoRaChem)

Start date: Apr 1, 2014, End date: Mar 31, 2019,

"Natural products are a constant source of inspiration in chemistry and have played a key role in the development of medicine. Recently, thanks to the progress in genomics and metagenomics, it has appeared that the biosynthetic potential of microorganisms and the complexity of the reactions catalyzed have been largely underestimated. Notably, enzymes using radical-based chemistry have been shown t ...

Improving European aquaculture by advancing selective breeding to the next level for the six main finfish species (FISHBOOST)

Start date: Feb 1, 2014, End date: Jan 31, 2019,

Only about 10% of today’s global aquaculture production use genetically improved stocks. In Europe, some breeding programmes consist of only the basic components of a breeding scheme. Hence, there is large potential to increase efficiency and profit by domestication and genetic improvement of farmed finfish. The main challenge of FISHBOOST is to realise this potential into economic and social acce ...

Microbiome Influence on Energy balance and Brain Development-Function Put into Action to Tackle Diet-related Diseases and Behavior (MyNewGut)

Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2018,

Emerging evidence indicates that the gut microbiome contributes to our ability to extract energy from the diet and influences development and function of the immune, endocrine and nervous systems, which regulate energy balance and behaviour. This has led to hypothesize that developing microbiome-based dietary interventions can be cost-effective measures to prevent diet-related and behavioural diso ...

Advanced Multidisciplinary Training in Molecular Bacteriology (AMBER)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

"The advancement in life sciences has created a growing number of disciplines that are required to elucidate the increasingly complicated biological questions. This has led to an unsurpassed level of knowledge, but it has also resulted in a continuous specialization in PhD trainings, which makes the students less prepared for complex present day biological questions. To provide a better comprehens ...
