A Nanoscale Artificial Nose to easily detect Volatile Biomarkers at Early stages of Lung Cancer and Related Genetic Mutations (LCAOS)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2011, Date de fin: 31 mars 2015,
The LCAOS project will develop and test a new diagnostic tool, able to detect:(i) the presence of lung cancer (LC), and(ii) an increased risk of a patient developing LC in the future.Diagnostic tests currently available are unsuitable for widespread screening because they are costly, occasionally miss tumours, are not time-efficient, nor free of complications.LCAOS will overcome these problems by ...

Vaccines against helminth infections (PARAVAC)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2011, Date de fin: 31 mars 2015,
Livestock production efficiency is impaired by helminth infection which is ubiquitous in cattle, sheep and goats world-wide. It causes severely debilitating gastro-intestinal, respiratory and hepatic disorders, dependent on the infecting species. The treatment and prevention of helminth parasitism in livestock continues to rely almost exclusively on the use of anthelmintic drugs, an approach thre ...

Climate Change and Inland Seas: Phenomena, Feedback and Uncertainties. The Physical Science Basis (CLIMSEAS)
Date du début: 1 juin 2010, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2014,
The overall aim of this proposal is to create an international network of scientists working on climate change in inland sea areas, which are sensitive environments capable of providing key information about global climate change. Although inland seas and large lakes are very vulnerable to anthropogenic and climatic stressors and require special attention, there is not a single, easily identifiabl ...

Development of novel diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to improve patient outcome in lung and pancreatic tumours (CANCERALIA)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2011, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2014,
Lung and pancreatic cancers still have a mortality rate over 85% at 5 years of diagnosis, a clear demonstration of the actual treatment failure and the need for improved clinical management. This involves better tools for diagnosis, prognosis, and selection of sensitive and resistant patients to current conventional therapies or improved innovative treatments as well as the development of novel th ...

Targeting the tumour microenvironment to improve pancreatic cancer prognosis (EPC-TM-Net)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2011, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2014,
Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal human cancers with a five-year survival rate of less than 5%. Late presentation and a high level of resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs are among the major reasons for this dismal prognosis. The presence of the highest degree of desmoplasia among all solid tumours and the fact that chronic inflammatory pancreatic disease is associated with an increased ...

Determining (epi)genetic therapeutic signatures for improving lung cancer prognosis (CURELUNG)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2011, Date de fin: 30 juin 2014,
"Lung cancer (LC) is still the most lethal type of cancer worldwide. The extremely poor prognosis for LC patients is partly due to the lack of effective therapies. At present, most patients with pulmonary carcinomas are treated with chemotherapy. This essentially consists of classic cytotoxic drugs which only improve survival in small cohorts in few cases. In spite of the rapidly growing understan ...

Development of a Smart Integrated Miniaturised Sensor System for analytical challenges in diagnostics, industry and the environment (SIMS)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2010, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2014,
The widespread availability of smart miniaturised systems is limited by the inability to integrate a sufficient number of functionalities into a single device at low cost and high volume using traditional production technologies. Organic, flexible and printed electronics (OFPE) offers this possibility. However, it too must overcome some significant challenges relating to device interfacing and fab ...

Quantifying Weather and Climate Impacts on Health in Developing Countries (QWeCI)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2010, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2013,
One of the most dramatic and immediate impacts of climate variation is that on disease, especially the vector-borne diseases that disproportionally affect the poorest people in Africa. Although we can clearly see that, for example, an El Nino event triggers Rift Valley Fever epidemics, we remain poor at understanding why particular areas are vulnerable and how this will change in coming decades, s ...

Sperm competition and the evolution of the male reproductive genome: a case study in the nannoptera group of Drosophila (REPROEVOL)
Date du début: 1 août 2009, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2012,
"Sperm competition is known to affect many aspects of animal behaviour and anatomy. In this proposal, I will examine how the threat of sperm competition is reflected in the complexity of male ejaculates, and in the rate of evolution of the components of this ejaculate. My core hypothesis is that loss of sperm competition will be reflected in ejaculates that are less complex (as they do not have to ...
