Decision Support and Information Management System for Breast Cancer (DESIREE)

Start date: Feb 1, 2016, End date: Jan 31, 2019,

Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer affecting woman in the EU. Multidisciplinary Breast Units (BUs) were introduced in order to deal efficiently with breast cancer cases, setting guideline-based quality procedures and a high standard of care. However, daily practice in the BUs is hampered by the complexity of the disease, the vast amount of patient and disease data available in the dig ...

Utility of omic-based biomarkers in characterizing older individuals at risk for frailty, its progression to disability and general consequences to health and well-being - The FRAILOMIC Initiative (FRAILOMIC)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2017,

The forecasted increase in the number of older people for this century will be accompanied by an increase of those with disabilities. Disability is usually preceded by a condition named frailty that encompasses changes associated with ageing, life styles and chronic diseases. To detect and intervene on it is of outstanding importance to prevent disability, as recovery from disability is unlikely. ...

High-throughput peptidomics and transcriptomics of animal venoms for discovery of novel therapeutic peptides and innovative drug development (VENOMICS)

Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2015,

"Animal venoms are complex cocktails of peptides that have enormous potential as novel therapeutic leads. Replicating in vitro the diversity of venoms by generating large synthetic combinatorial peptide libraries will solve the challenge of working with limited amounts of natural products and permit high-throughput investigation of their pharmacology. A new investigation paradigm associating trans ...

Translational Research on Combating Antimicrobial Resistance (TROCAR)

Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Jun 30, 2012,

"The health care systems of most European countries are based on a continuum from acute care hospitals, though other health care facilities to the community. Such a framework provides the perfect opportunity for the wide-spread dissemination of high-risk resistant clones or genetic resistant elements. The driving concept of TROCAR is to investigate the fundamentals of the epidemiology of new high ...
