Project description
Multidisciplinary research in vascular diseases
Vascular anomalies (VAs) are rare diseases causing chronic pain, disabilities, and even sudden death, lacking effective treatments. The EU-funded V.A. Cure project intends to uncover the mechanisms of disease initiation and maintenance and use this information to establish new therapeutic strategies. The consortium consists of seven world-leading academic laboratories and five companies. The project will identify novel genes involved in VAs in patients, anatomise molecular mechanisms behind the diseases by in vitro modelling, perform an in-depth analysis of tissular mechanisms in pathophysiological conditions through in vivo models, and preclinical testing of identified treatment strategies. V.A. Cure will train 14 early-stage researchers in several advanced technologies, making them future leaders in vascular research.
