MODHEP Systems biology of liver cancer: an integrative genomic-epigenomic approach

Coordinator: FONDAZIONE ISTITUTO ITALIANO DI TECNOLOGIA (IT)

Cancer is a complex disease involving multiple genetic and epigenetic events occurring, and influencing each other, over a long period of time. Understanding cancer, and ultimately developing effective targeted therapies, will therefore require that mutations and epigenetic alterations be systematically investigated during the multiple stages of disease development, from identifiable pre-neoplastic phases to overt cancer. Until now, no systematic effort has been undertaken to investigate these multiple layers of genome organization and function during cancer development. MODHEP aims at provid…

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: €11.9M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 5.5 years from 2011-01-01 to 2016-06-30.
