Innate immune defence against intracellular pathogens
What are the host immune defence mechanisms that control intracellular infections and how are these subverted by pathogens?

Autophagy and Lc3-associated phagocytosis in host defense against Salmonella
Control of infectious diseases poses continuous challenges for human health.

Nitric oxide in defence against mycobacterial infection
Can we enhance the capacity of host immune cells to kill mycobacteria via production of reactive nitrogen species?
-
Inflammafish: Cross-talk between inflammation and autophagy in tuberculosis
Effective host defence against tuberculosis bacteria depends on a properly balanced level of inflammation. The Inflammafish project uses zebrafish larvae to study how autophagy controls this inflammation and vice versa.

Combatting infectious diseases; nanotechnology as a platform for rational vaccine design
Currently, several successful vaccines are available. However, for pathogens with a highly variable genetic composition, and for which serum IgG antibodies are not a useful correlate of protection, effective vaccines are yet to be developed.

Staphylomics: Identifying host factors involved in staphylococcal infection
How can Staphylococcus aureus bacteria subvert the host immune system?

Imaging of biomaterial-associated inflammation and infection using zebrafish
Which immune mechanisms are involved in host defense against Staphylococcal infection?

FishForPharma: Training network on zebrafish infection models for pharmaceutical screens
How can zebrafish models be used to gain a better understanding of host-pathogen interaction mechanisms and to screen new drugs for infectious disease treatment?

ImageInLife: Training European experts in multilevel bioimaging, analysis and modelling of vertebrate development
How can novel bioimaging technologies and vertebrate model species be used to gain a better understanding of early cellular behaviours with the ultimate goal to increase our understanding of human development and disease processes?
