Policy Design and Evaluation Research in Developing Countries (PODER)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2013, Date de fin: 31 août 2017,
"Good policy design requires understanding of how agents respond to incentives and how they interact through market and non-market institutions. New approaches to policy design have recently emerged. These rely on controlled experiments as well as analysis of natural policy experiments. They allow us not only to evaluate whether a policy has been successful but also to test the theoretical channel ...

More Medicines for Tuberculosis (MM4TB)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2011, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2016,
The More Medicines for Tuberculosis (MM4TB) consortium evolved from the highly successful FP6 project, New Medicines for TB (NM4TB), that delivered a candidate drug for clinical development two years ahead of schedule. Building on these firm foundations and exploiting its proprietary pharmacophores, MM4TB will continue to develop new drugs for TB treatment. An integrated approach will be impleme ...

Consortium for Health Policy and Systems Analysis in Africa (CHEPSAA)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2011, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2015,
In sub-Saharan Africa health improvement remains a major development challenge. A growing evidence base demonstrates that health systems must be strengthened to secure progress in addressing mortality and tackling disease burdens. Yet there is a dearth of African research to support such action. African Ministers of Health and international agencies have, therefore, called for accelerated developm ...

Health, environmental change and adaptive capacity: mapping, examining and anticipating future risks of water-related vector-borne diseases in eastern Africa (HEALTHY FUTURES)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2011, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2014,
The HEALTHY FUTURES project is motivated by concern for the health impacts of environmental changes. HEATHLY FUTURES aims to respond to this concern through construction of a disease risk mapping system for three water-related high-impact VBDs (malaria, Rift valley fever and schistosomiasis) in Africa, accounting for environmental/climatic trends and changes in socio-economic conditions to predic ...

"Promoting sexual- and reproductive health among adolescents in southern and eastern Africa – mobilising parents, schools, and communities" (PREPARE)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2010, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2014,
"The purpose of this project is to develop research-based, culture- and gender-sensitive, sustainable, community-based interventions to promote sexual- and reproductive health among adolescents aged 12-14 years in southern and East Africa, with schools as the gateway for delivery. In two sites (Cape Town and Dar es Salaam), comprehensive, 'best practice', effectiveness studies will be implemented. ...

Development of global plankton data base and model system for eco-climate early warning (GREENSEAS)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2011, Date de fin: 30 juin 2014,
GreenSeas shall advance the quantitative knowledge of how planktonic marine ecosystems, including phytoplankton, bacterioplankton and zooplankton, will respond to environmental and climate changes. To achieve this GreenSeas will employ a combination of observation data, numerical simulations and a cross-disciplinary synthesis to develop a high quality, harmonized and standardized plankton and plan ...

Probabilistic Framework for Onboard Fire-Safety (FIREPROOF)
Date du début: 1 juin 2009, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2012,
"The traditional fire safety regulations that apply to ship design have been widely described as inadequate in two ways. Firstly they do impose unnecessary and inapplicable constraints on novel designs. Secondly novel designs can have features that do not satisfy the premise of existing rules, thereby setting them free from fire safety rules by default, often leading to unsafe designs. In or ...

IMproving Protein Annotation and Co-ordination through Technology (IMPACT)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2008, Date de fin: 30 juin 2011,
New DNA sequencing and metagenomics projects are increasing the flow of poorly annotated raw sequence data into public databases with limited annotation. At the same time, users are imposing increasing demands on databases to include functional and contextual information, and to facilitate linking to other databases. Recent advances in technologies for achieving this and enabling complex querying ...

"Coordination, rationalisation and integration of antimalarial drug discovery initiatives" (CRIMALDDI)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2009, Date de fin: 30 juin 2011,
"Antimalarial drug discovery and development initiatives globally are fragmented and uncoordinated. We have brought together key organisations including MMV, WHO and AntiMal, an EU-funded FP6 Integrated Project represented by its coordinating institution and a number of academic malaria researchers, to resolve this problem through a logical series of meetings, conferences, workshops and dissemina ...
