- Read more about the research project on immune responses to against microbiota as biomarkers for ME/CFS.
- This project modelled the transmission dynamics of SARS-CoV-2 among different age groups and 3 risk categories according to the official Dutch risk classification. Their projections for the future demonstrated that vaccinating only individuals at high and medium risk for severe disease was insufficient to avoid overwhelming hospitals in a fall wave, and that a substantial vaccination rate in lower…
- Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is characterised by clonal spread. MRSA clones are unequally distributed across the world and different clones are dominant at different times. AimThe MACOTRA project studied the interaction between MRSA, humans and the environment. The researchers used mathematical models to gain a better understanding of MRSA dynamics.ResultsA main predictor of…
- In this controlled study the acceptability, utility and feasibility of self-swabbing instead of physician-swabbing will be evaluated.
- A mpox project that will study and compare the magnitude and longevity of immunity induced by either vaccination or infection.
- Mpox incidence has significantly declined, the contribution of vaccination to the interruption of the outbreak is not fully understood. Dose-sparing can be achieved with less side effects.
- The project will investigate the efficacy of sofosbuvir in a human infection model as prophylaxis against yellow fever.
- Read how is investigated wastewater treatment plant employees and local residents are more likely to carry antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
- The use of plastic materials, such as packaging, textiles and rubber tyres, can lead to the release of small plastic particles into the environment, micro- and nanoplastic particles (MNPs). MNPs have been found in our environment and in our bodies. We still know little about the potential health risks of MNPs.MOMENTUM 2.0 is a follow-up to the 3-year MOMENTUM project to assess the human health…
