Stem-cell based therapy for kidney repair (STELLAR)

Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2017,

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects 8% of the European population and ultimately results in renal failure due to progressive fibrosis. CDK carries a high mortality risk and the number of affected people rises, increasing the demand on renal replacement therapies while the number of available donor organs stays stable.The STELLAR consortium proposes to develop an alternative to renal replacement ...

"Codeine Use, Misuse and Dependence" (CODEMISUSED)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2017,

"Contemporary research has underscored the need for ‘increased pharmaco-vigilence’ around codeine dispensing as the most commonly consumed opiate worldwide. Codeine represents an interesting quandary in terms of its regulated status, with individuals varying in their metabolism of codeine, estimation of safe dosages, and abuse potential. Within user trajectories of codeine use, a variety of sub gr ...

Coordination Action for the integration of Solar System Infrastructures and Science (CASSIS)

Start date: Jun 1, 2010, End date: Nov 30, 2013,

Solar System Science has traditionally been undertaken within a number of separate disciplines. However, like any system its aspects are inter-related and it has been difficult to address these aspects because of the lack of the integrating technology required to span the inter-disciplinary boundaries. While advances in technology means that the intrinsic differences between disciplines (manifest ...

European Network for Genetic and Genomic Epidemiology (ENGAGE)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2012,

"ENGAGE (European Network for Genetic and Genomic Epidemiology) has, as its central objective, the translation of the wealth of data emerging from large-scale research efforts in molecular epidemiology into information of direct relevance to future advances in clinical medicine. ENGAGE will do this through the integration of very large-scale genetic and phenotypic data already available from a sub ...

GENETIC FACTORS FOR OSTEOPOROSIS (GEFOS)

Start date: Mar 1, 2008, End date: Aug 31, 2012,

"Osteoporosis is a common, age-related disease with a strong genetic component. With increasing age of the population, Europe and industrialised countries across the globe are facing a substantial increase in osteoporotic fractures, which account for considerable disease-burden and costs. Early identification and treatment of subjects at risk can help preventing this, and genetic susceptibility al ...
