ULTRA-DD Unrestricted Leveraging of Targets for Research Advancement and Drug Discovery

Coordinator: NOVARTIS PHARMA AG (CH)

ULTRA-DD (Unrestricted Leveraging of Targets for Research Advancement and Drug Discovery) will be an European-wide, highly collaborative and inclusive consortium, to validate new targets for drug discovery by (1) generating high quality research tools, with an emphasis on chemical probes; (2) generating the chemical probes in the most cost-effective manner, using structure-guided methods and harnessing the chemical libraries and medicinal chemistry skills of the EFPIA participants; (3) testing the chemical probes in models of human disease based on continuous access to cells from patients wit…

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 €21.2M toward a total project budget of €50.3M — a funding rate of 42%, with the remainder covered by the consortium partners. The project runs over approximately 5 years from 2015-03-01 to 2020-02-29.
