Nanoporous and Nanostructured Materials for Medical Applications (NanoMed)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2017, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2020,
This project aims to stimulate intersectoral and international collaboration within Europe and with an ICPC country, Kazakhstan, in the area of novel nanoporous and nanostructured adsorbents for the treatment of very serious health conditions associated with acute and chronic exposure to external radiation and uptake of heavy metals and radiation as a consequence of accidental, occupational or del ...

Developing and Testing a novel, low-cost, effective HOOKworm VACcine to Control Human Hookworm Infection in endemic countries (HOOKVAC)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2013, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2017,
Approximately 600-700 million people are infected by hookworm, primarily in sub-Saharan Africa, Southeast Asia, and Latin America. Hookworm infection ranks number one in terms of Years Lost from Disability from a neglected infectious disease, and among the top 3 in terms of lost Disability-Adjusted Life Years. HOOKVAC will be developing the first and only vaccine for human hookworm infection. A ...

Biomaterials for Tracheal Replacement in Age-related Cancer via a Humanly Engineered Airway (BIOtrachea)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2012, Date de fin: 31 mars 2017,
Age-related cancers, especially of the trachea, are neoplastic lesions that significantly impact upon the lives of thousands of European patients each year. Unfortunately, most present with inoperable lesions for which median survival is less than 12 months. Based on our previous clinically successful experiences with in vivo completely tissue engineered tracheal replacement in benign tracheal dis ...

Imaging of Neuroinflammation in Neurodegenerative Diseases (INMiND)
Date du début: 1 mars 2012, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2017,
The goal of this proposal (INMiND) is to carry out collaborative research on molecular mechanisms that link neuroinflammation with neurodegeneration in order to identify novel biological targets for activated microglia, which may serve for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, and to translate this knowledge into the clinic. The general objectives of INMiND are:(i) to identify novel mechanisms ...

Development and evaluation of a quantitative imaging technique for assessment of nanoparticle drug delivery across the blood-brain barrier: Applications for brain cancer therapeutics (OncoNanoBBB)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2015,
...tive doses of drugs reaching the site of disease. There is thus a major need for technologies that can successfully overcome such a hurdle without having a negative effect on safety and tolerability. Pharmidex have developed a drug delivery system that transiently and reversibly opens the BBB to entry of compounds into the brain without inducing tissue injury. It is based on patented lipid-like st ...

Biocompatability of carbon nanoparticles with tissues of the neuromuscular system (NMS-CNT)
Date du début: 1 mai 2009, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2013,
The partners wish to build a long-term European, industry-academia consortium, to work on the problem of repairing tissue damage in the neuromuscular system (NS). We initially seek to determine the biocompatibility of carbon nanoparticles with tissues of the NS as an essential prelude to our medium to long-term goal of developing marketable novel carbon nanotube-based implants for tissue repair of ...
