SPRINTT Sarcopenia and Physical fRailty IN older people: multi-componenT Treatment strategies

Coordinator: SANOFI-AVENTIS RECHERCHE & DEVELOPPEMENT (FR)

The current healthcare systems are built around the traditional paradigm of patients suffering from a single acute illness. They are therefore largely unprepared to face the increasing demands for health services arising from the expansion of an older population with specific medical needs related to multiple chronic disorders. As a consequence, the medical conditions of a large and growing segment of the older European population are not efficiently managed by the available healthcare services. Among these conditions, the geriatric syndrome of frailty has emerged as a significant public heal…

About Seventh Framework Programme (2007–2013)

The Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) ran from 2007 to 2013 and was the EU's main research-funding instrument of that period. It mobilised roughly €50 billion across cooperation projects, ERC frontier grants, Marie Curie fellowships, capacity-building actions and Euratom research. FP7 closed to new calls in 2013 but its projects continued for years after under their original grant agreements.

Co-funding: the European Union contributes €24.0M toward a total project budget of €56.3M — a funding rate of 43%, with the remainder covered by the consortium partners. The project runs over approximately 5.8 years from 2014-07-01 to 2020-04-30.
