European Primate Network: Advancing 3Rs and International Standards in Biological and Biomedical Research (EUPRIM-NET II)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2011, Date de fin: 30 juin 2015,
Biomedical research depends on the availability of living non-human primates and biological material with primate origin. The need for animal research using non-human primates is therefore recognised by all governments that support internationally competitive biomedical research aimed at addressing the world’s most pressing medical challenges. While essential for biomedical research owing to their ...

Biology and control of vector-borne infections in Europe (EDENext)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2011, Date de fin: 30 juin 2015,
To address the call for proposals 'Biology and control of vector-borne infections in Europe' launched by the European Commission, we want to investigate the biological, ecological and epidemiological components of vector-borne diseases (VBD) introduction, emergence and spread, and to propose innovative tools for controlling them, building on the basis of acquired knowledge. We have selected the ma ...

Towards the establishment of a permanent European Virtual Institute dedicated to Malaria Research (EVIMalaR) (EVIMalaR)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2009, Date de fin: 31 mars 2015,
This is a proposal from 55 partners from 36 institutes to form a NoE that will seek to integrate European malaria research that is directed towards a better understanding of the basic biology of the parasite, its vector and of the biology of the interactions between the parasite and both its mammalian host and vectors. All the member institutes and researchers have demonstrated both their excellen ...

Crimean Congo Hemorrhagic Fever; Modern Approaches to Diagnostics, Surveillance, Prevention, Therapy and Preparedness (CCH Fever)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2010, Date de fin: 31 mars 2015,
Over the last years, large outbreaks of Crimean Congo Hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) in several European countries and neighbouring areas are on the rise. This disease poses a great threat to public health due to its high mortality rate, modes of transmission and geographical distribution. Climate changes and observation of the CCHFV vector in central Europe alarm the European community as we can ...

European Research Infrastructure on Highly Pathogenic Agents (ERINHA)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2010, Date de fin: 31 août 2014,
In the context of the emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases involving highly pathogenic microorganisms, European countries have to be well-prepared to face such threats. However, the Biosafety Level 4 (BSL4) capacity in Europe is not sufficient enough to cover the efficient development of diagnosis, prophylactic and therapeutics means against these pathogens. Moreover, there is no global co ...

Pan-European network for the study and clinical management of drug resistant tuberculosis (TB PAN-NET)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2009, Date de fin: 30 juin 2014,
"This proposal will establish an integrated and synergistic network to address the challenge of multiple drug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) facing the EU. The objective will be attained through the establishment of a European consortium of expert partners with extensive experience in the conduct of basic and clinical research relating to MDR-TB, TB control and epidemiology. This Consortium will ...

Developing the Framework for an Epidemic Forecast Infrastructure (EPIWORK)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2009, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2013,
In recent years a huge flow of quantitative social, demographic and behavioural data is becoming available spurring the quest for innovative technologies that can improve the traditional disease-surveillance systems, providing faster and better localized detection capabilities and resulting in a broad practical impact. Improved ICT techniques and methodologies support the inter-linkage and integra ...

International network for capacity building for the control of emerging viral vector borne zoonotic diseases (ARBO-ZOONET)
Date du début: 1 mai 2008, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2012,
"West Nile Fever (WNF), Rift Valley Fever (RVF) and Crimean-Congo Haemorrhagic Fever (CCHF) are arthropod-borne diseases of different domestic and wild animals and can also affect humans, posing a great threat to public health because of their epidemic and zoonotic potential. Their geographical distribution has expanded in recent decades. WNF outbreaks have already occurred in Europe, CCHF is ende ...

A comprehensive dissection of pneumococcal-host interactions (PNEUMOPATH)
Date du début: 1 mars 2009, Date de fin: 31 août 2012,
"This project is a fundamental, comprehensive study of the host-pathogen interactions during infection with Streptococcus pneumoniae. The expectation is that the basic knowledge gained from this work will give new targets for vaccination, diagnosis and treatment. In PNEUMOPATH, academic and industrial partners will work together in six scientific workpackages. 1) The molecular epidemiology of anti ...

NASAL VACCINATION AGAINST RESPIRATORY INFECTIONS IN YOUNG CHILDREN (CHILD-INNOVAC)
Date du début: 1 mars 2008, Date de fin: 29 févr. 2012,
"Respiratory infections are the most frequent cause of childhood morbidity and mortality worldwide. For many respiratory pathogens no vaccine is available, for others classical immunisations remain insufficiently effective. This project concerns the development of novel, nasal vaccines against two major respiratory pathogens, B. pertussis and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV). No vaccine is yet av ...

Development of a two-approach plate system for the fast and simultaneous detection of MDR and XDR M. tuberculosis (FAST-XDR-DETECT)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2008, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2012,
Tuberculosis (TB) continues being a leading cause of death due to a single infectious disease agent. The HIV/AIDS pandemic and the emergence of drug resistance are compounding factors that hinder the control of the disease. Associated with this problem is the emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, defined as strains resistant to at least isoniazid and rifampi ...

Genetic Analysis of the host-pathogen interaction in tuberculosis (TB-EURO-GEN)
Date du début: 1 mars 2008, Date de fin: 31 août 2011,
"We propose to extend an existing collection of DNA extracts from TB patients and their corresponding TB DNA to establish the world’s largest resource of extracts from a population of TB patients and 5000 ethnically matched healthly controls. The bank will comprise 5000 DNA host DNA extracts paired the DNA and cultures of the strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis causing their disease. We will pe ...
