Pancreatic cancer network: from candidate genes to medical applications (PACA-TARGETS)

Objective

In the previous years, a large number of candidate disease genes torn pancreatic cancer have been identified by members of the consortium using high-throughput molecular techniques. Major aim of the next years is to foster the transfer of candidate genes into medical applications in an integrated and coordinated European approach. As a prerequisite for this approach we now propose to generate a European network for the optimised and coordinated use of basic and clinical oncological facilities, resources, sample banks, patient databases and expertise. The consortium includes basic molecular, molecular oncology, pathology, and medical and surgical oncology research groups. The CA will thus generate a network providing the essential framework and standardized conditions required to exploit molecular target genes at the level of public health as e.g. for the development of new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for pancreatic cancer.

Fields of science (EuroSciVoc)

CORDIS classifies projects with EuroSciVoc, a multilingual taxonomy of fields of science, through a semi-automatic process based on NLP techniques. See: The European Science Vocabulary.
