DARIAH ERIC Sustainability Refined (DESIR)

Start date: Jan 1, 2017, End date: Dec 31, 2019,

Europe has a long and rich tradition as a centre for the arts and humanities. However, the digital transformation poses challenges to the arts and humanities research landscape all over the world. Responding to these challenges the Digital Research Infrastructure for Arts and Humanities (DARIAH) was launched as a pan-European network and research infrastructure. After expansion and consolidation, ...

PhenoMeNal: A comprehensive and standardised e-infrastructure for analysing medical metabolic phenotype data (PhenoMeNal)

Start date: Sep 1, 2015, End date: Aug 31, 2018,

In the coming decade a significant number of the 500.000.000 European (EU/EEA) citizens will have their genome determined routinely. This will be complemented with much cheaper (currently ~20 Euro per measurement) acquisition of the metabolome of biofluids (e.g. urine, saliva, blood plasma) which will link the genotype with metabolome data that captures the highly dynamic phenome and exposome of p ...

Integrating chemical approaches to treat pancreatic cancer: making new leads for a cure (Panacreas)

Start date: Mar 1, 2011, End date: Feb 29, 2016,

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) causes 34000 deaths in the EU every year. Conventional cancer treatments have close to no impact on this disease. As a result, almost all patients diagnosed with PDAC develop metastases and eventually die. Given this poor outlook, the search for new therapeutics is mandatory. These will have to target relevant cancer pathways and be designed based on the ava ...

Improving beta-cell function and identification of diagnostic biomarkers for treatment monitoring in diabetes (IMIDIA)

Start date: Feb 1, 2010, End date: Sep 30, 2015,

An absolute or relative loss of beta-cell mass and function underlie the development of type I and type 2 diabetes.Preventing beta-cell demise or restoring their number and function is a major therapeutic goal. However,development of novel diagnostic and prognostic tools, and of novel therapeutic modalities, is hampered by the limited knowledge of the molecular pathways that control beta-cell demi ...

Modelling and predicting sensitivity to targeted therapies in colorectal cancers (COLTHERES)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2014,

Effective and long term treatment of cancer is now in sight, but will ultimately require an increasingly ‘personalised’ approach where the ‘right’ combination of drugs will be administered to the ‘right’ patients, based on a detailed understanding of their genetic background and their co-associated sensitivity or resistance ‘biomarkers’. Efforts are specifically required to identify validated risk ...
