Establishing the role of Purkinje fibres in the development of arrhythmias for the prevention of Sudden Cardiac Death: Insights from a combined in vivo and ex vivo study (PSCD)
Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2014,
"Sudden cardiac death (SCD) following ventricular fibrillation (VF) is a major cause of mortality in the industrialised world. VF is characterised by chaotic electrical activity in the ventricles leading to severe cardiac dysfunction. Thus far, the underlying mechanisms for the initiation and maintenance of VF are not fully understood. Recent clinical developments in the treatment of VF by the Hos ...

Study of Endothelial and Osteoclastic cells cooperation for Bone Tissue Engineering applications (EOBoTE)
Start date: Aug 1, 2011, End date: Jul 31, 2014,
Bone diseases like osteoporosis and osteoarthritis are affecting an increasing number of people worldwide. The short- and long-term consequences are an increasing risk of fractures, total joint replacement and bone grafting. Current treatments of osteoporosis are based on inhibition of bone resorption and at best preserve bone volume but do not improve bone formation together with a high risk of c ...
