Evolution of olfactory circuits (EVONEURO)
Date du début: 1 juin 2014, Date de fin: 31 mai 2019,
"Nervous systems have undergone remarkable diversification in their structure and function as animals have adapted to distinct ecological niches. What are the genetic mechanisms underlying neural circuit evolution? The project addresses this fundamental question in the Drosophila olfactory system, a superior ""evo-neuro"" model for several reasons: (i) as in mammals, the Drosophila olfactory syste ...

The origin and functional evolution of long non-coding RNAs (EVOLNCRNAS)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2014, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2015,
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a heterogeneous class of RNA molecules that function in a wide range of biological processes, including the inactivation of sex chromosomes, imprinting and the regulation of gene expression. Despite their obvious biological importance, lncRNAs are the least understood class of genomic transcripts. Little is known about how they originate, how they acquire and evo ...

Neuroendocrine Immune Networks in Ageing (NINA)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2009, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2013,
Current demographic trends indicate that by the year 2020 almost 1 in 5 of the European population will be aged over 65. However, although life expectancy is increasing in the developed world, the period of good health enjoyed by its people is not keeping pace. The ageing population is thus a major health and economic issue for Europe. Although ageing is a complex process, we know much about its a ...
