MED-VET-NET Network for prevention and control of zoonoses (Collaborative project)

Diseases naturally transmitted from animals to man termed zoonoses, constitute major public health risks and generate emerging disease problems. Such diseases especially when food-borne have significant social and financial impacts in Europe and need to be addressed across the whole food supply chain. The overall objective of MED-VET-NET is to develop a Network of Excellence for the integration...

GLOWA Elbe II 2004 - 2007 - Global Change Impacts on the Water Cycle in the Elbe River Basin - Risks and Options (Collaborative project)

The environmental quality and socio-economic capability of the Elbe region is influenced to a substantial extent by factors that either depend on water or themselves have an impact on water. Building on the first phase of the GLOWA Elbe project we investigate how the potentially conflict-laden fields of surface water availability and quality of surface water are affected by structural economic...

GLOWA Elbe III 2007 - 2010 - Impact of global change on the water cycle in the Elbe region -- (Collaborative project)

Target of the BMBF GLOWA research program is to develop science based proposals for ensuring the availability, quality and distribution of water resources. For the third phase the GLOWA-program is oriented to 'help decision makers in the catchment areas to examine and assess the impact of various decisions . These systems should be designed so that they are transferable to other comparable river...

Research program influenza (Collaborative project)

In the diagnosis is the development of rapid detection systems for a variety of influenza viruses in humans and animals is needed. The existing nucleic acid-based detection methods should be improved and made universally applicable, in order to demonstrate not only of influenza virus subtype H5, but all 16 H and 9 N subtypes to allow. In parallel, antibody detection systems to develop a...
