Project description
Cure for COVID-19 neurological complications
The impact of the frequent neurological and psychiatric complications resulting from SARS-CoV-2 infection can be devasting at the pandemic scale due to lack of treatment. The EU-funded NEUROCOV project will therefore investigate the cognitive and neurodegenerative complications associated with COVID-19, the NeuroCOVID, using an innovative interdisciplinary approach. The goal is to develop a methodology to anticipate and manage personalised vulnerabilities and their impacts at a population level. The broad approach will involve epidemiology, research of the host/virus interaction at the single cell level, and predictive modelling to identify biomarkers and potential drugs for repurposing. The phenotypic spectrum of NeuroCOVID will be obtained through leading national health registries and three clinical cohorts, enabling analysis of the complications, risk factors, and socioeconomic burden.
