EPIGENESYS Epigenetics towards systems biology

Coordinator: CENTRE NATIONAL DE LA RECHERCHE SCIENTIFIQUE CNRS (FR)

The ‘EpiGeneSys’ Network of Excellence aims to enable European epigenetics research to enter the arena of systems biology, a new step forward with major implications for human health. Many diseases, not explained solely by gene mutation, have rather been associated with epigenetic disorders. Following the identification of key epigenetic regulators, a move towards a systems biology approach is needed to understand their dynamic functional relationships. This NoE identified 4 areas aiming at: 1) characterizing the molecular dynamics of epigenetic systems at the single molecule and cell level, …

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.

EU contribution: €12.0M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 5.5 years from 2010-10-01 to 2016-03-31.
