A Clostridal Biology Network to Facilitate European-wide Medical Countermeasures and Commercial Exploitation (CLOSTNET)
Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Aug 31, 2013,
"There is an urgent need to better understand the basic biology of Clostridium as a prerequisite for both countering the diseases they cause (C.difficile, C.perfringens and C.botulinum), and exploiting their beneficial properties in industry (biofuels by C.acetobutylicum) and medicine (cancer therapy by C.sporogenes). Attainment of this goal is being impeded because: (i) European research efforts ...

European Urban Health Indicators Part Two: Using indicators to inform policy (EURO-URHIS 2)
Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Jun 30, 2013,
"Urban health is important due urbanisation and requires specific information not captured by national datasets. The EURO-URHIS (www.urhis.eu) project funded by DG SANCO, identified urban health indicators and their availability. EURO-URHIS 2 aims to develop methodology and validated tools useful to policy makers at all levels to make health gains via evidence based policy decisions for urban popu ...

CAse studies on the Development and Application of in-Silico Techniques for Environmental hazard and Risk assessment (CADASTER)
Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2012,
"Implementation of REACH requires demonstration of the safe manufacture and use of chemicals. REACH aims to achieve a proper balance between societal, economic and environmental objectives, and attempts to efficiently use the scarce and scattered information available on the majority of substances. Thereupon REACH aims to reduce animal testing by optimized use of in silico and in vitro information ...

The Physiological Basis of Hypervirulence in Clostridium difficile: a Prerequisite for Effective Infection Control (HYPERDIFF)
Start date: Nov 1, 2008, End date: Oct 31, 2011,
"Clostridium diffficile is currently wreaking havoc within European health systems due to the emergence of hyper virulent strains, responsible for more severe disease, higher relapse rates, increased mortality and greater resistance to antibiotics. Its impact in healthcare settings is considerable, in terms of morbidity, mortality and financial cost However, the physiological basis of pathogenesis ...
