StemMemo What does your blood remember? The memory of hematopoietic stem cells.

Coordinator: UNIWERSYTET JAGIELLONSKI (PL)

Human organism produces over a million new blood cells each second. The hematopoietic system dynamically reacts to environmental stress and forms adaptive immunity to memorize and effectively fight the encounter pathogens. However, based on our recent studies and preliminary results, we propose that the adaptive capabilities and memory of the hematopoietic system reach far beyond the classical adaptive antigen-specific immunity. We hypothesize that hematopoietic stress induces clonal expansion of lineage-biased hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) with epigenetic memory that faster and more effect…

About Horizon Europe (2021–2027)

Horizon Europe is the EU's current research and innovation programme, covering 2021 to 2027 with a budget of roughly €95.5 billion. Its three pillars are Excellent Science (frontier research and mobility), Global Challenges and European Industrial Competitiveness (mission-driven collaborative projects in health, climate, digital, security and food) and Innovative Europe (the EIC and EIT). It also funds five EU Missions targeting cancer, climate adaptation, smart cities, oceans and soils.

EU contribution: €2.5M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 5 years from 2022-06-01 to 2027-05-31.
