Interstitial Lung Diseases (ILDs) are a heterogeneous group of >100 different rare diseases, which share the fate of progressive scarring and, ultimately, death. Two anti-fibrotic drugs have demonstrated to slow-down fibrotic progression and steroids/immunosuppressants are commonly used for inflammatory-driven ILDs. However, patient's response to therapeutic options is...

Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a rare type of cancer and the second most common hepatobiliary malignancy, accounting for 10 to 20% of primary liver cancers. In the recent years, different groups have published data on the molecular biology of CCA, describing a complex pathogenesis, involving various molecular pathways, some of them potential therapeutic targets, such as...

This project aims at supporting and enhancing modern oncology, by implementing a cultural, technological and legal integrated framework (EUCANCan) across Europe and Canada, for the efficient analysis, management and sharing of cancer genomic data. This cooperative framework is not only expected to immediately contribute to improve biomedical research in cancer, but to also...

The aim of the project is to develop a comprehensive framework for generalizing network analytics and fusion paradigms of non-negative matrix factorization to medical data. Heterogeneous, interconnected, systems-level omics data are becoming increasingly available and important in precision medicine. We are seeking to better stratify and subtype patients into risk groups,...

We propose to create the EUropean-CANadian Cancer network (EUCANCan), a federated infrastructure whose mission is to enable Personalized Medicine in Oncology by promoting the generation and sharing of harmonized genomic and phenotypic data. EUCANCan builds on work performed by members of the consortium and related projects to align and interconnect existing European and...
