European multidisciplinary ALS network identification to cure motor neuron degeneration (Euro-MOTOR)
Start date: Feb 1, 2011, End date: Jan 31, 2016,
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis is one of the most devastating diseases in neurology affecting in Europe 50,000 individuals at any time, and causing around 10,000 deaths each year. ALS is characterized by progressive degeneration of motor neurons in brain and spinal cord leading to muscle weakness. ALS affects otherwise healthy people at any time in adulthood. The patient becomes paralyzed and dies ...

Smart Connected Electro Mobility (smartCEM)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2014,
Four European cities/regions (Barcelona, Gipuzkoa-San Sebastian, Newcastle and Reggio Emilia) have come together to demonstrate the role of ICT solutions for cities and citizens in addressing shortcomings of electro mobility. Electric power solutions have proven to offer a potentially ground-breaking solution for more energy-efficient and less petrol-dependent vehicles and transport systems. The ...

Circadian clock function by quantitative proteomics and phosphoproteomics (Clockproteomics)
Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Jun 9, 2014,
The circadian clock is an endogenous oscillator that drives daily rhythms in physiology and behavior. The mechanism underlying circadian timekeeping is cell-autonomous and oscillations are generated by interconnecting transcriptional and translational feedback loops. To date large-scale approaches to study molecular circadian rhythms have been limited to the analysis of the transcriptome (mRNA). H ...

Therapeutic challenge in Leukodystrophies: Translational and ethical research towards clinical trials (LEUKOTREAT)
Start date: Mar 1, 2010, End date: Aug 31, 2013,
Leukodystrophies (LDs) are inherited rare neurodegenerative diseases of the white matter and its main component, the myelin, that are affecting predominantly children. Severity of the disease is related to the axonal dysfunction due to myelin deficiency or destruction. Despite the achievement of remarkable advances made in the past decade, there is no current curative therapy. The development of t ...
