[PROJECT] FAST-XDR-DETECT - Development of a two-approach plate system for the fast and simultaneous detection of MDR and XDR M. tuberculosis
ID: 201690
Start date: 2008-02-01, End date: 2012-01-31
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 mul...

[PROJECT] EURASNET - European alternative splicing network of excellence
ID: 518238
Start date: 2006-01-01, End date: 2011-03-31
Posttranscriptional events must play a more central role in generating the highly complex proteomes of metazoa than previously believed. This is shown by the large discrepancy between the number of coding sequences of metazoan genomes and the known diversi ty of gene products ...
