Objective
NEOBRAIN is a project that brings together SMEs, industry and academic groups devoted to the diagnosis, management, and neuroprotection in newborns with perinatal brain damage. The focus of the project is the prevention of hypoxic-ischemic and inflammation-associated brain damage mainly observed in preterm newborns.
The objectives of the project are
1. to generate marker profiles of damage in multiple animal models and in human preterm infants using genomic/genetic, proteomic, and metabolomic approaches, as well as imaging and electrophysiologic modalities;
2. to develop neuroprotective strategies by identifying candidate molecules for intervention using such markers and molecules in animals;
3. to implement a clinical platform for an observational clinical epidemiologic study in human infants designed to contribute to objective #1 above and to transfer insights gained in objectives #1 and #2 from the animal to the human level;
4. to prepare for drug testing by using the project structure as a clinical platform for initial steps in clinical testing of interventions discovered.
We further envision developing the clinical platform in a fashion so it can serve as the basis for a subsequent large scale pan-European perinatal neuroprotective research initiative (Euro-Neo-Net, EURAIBI) that will enable us in the future to conduct additional clinical studies building upon the knowledge gained in NEOBRAIN.
