We are creating a citizen science platform to allow any person, without scientific background, to be involved in the search for a COVID-19 vaccine. Our solution combines human and artificial intelligence in a model to predict vaccine candidates.

Predicting major challenges of returning to work in Luxembourg by evaluating the impact of change...

This project is a study conducted by Pétillances, a company based in Strassen, Luxembourg, specialized in psychosocial risks prevention, trainings and organisational consultancy. This study was launched on 27th April 2020 and is still ongoing. It consists in a questionnaire evaluating how the measures taken by the Luxembourgish and cross-border governments are impacting the work organisation and what consequences it has on workers' mental health. Its first purpose is to compare the situation before the confinement measures were introduced and afterwards, for example: in what extent has ...

The new breathing therapy method based on short-term intermittent exposure to hypoxia in rehabili...

The current worldwide healthcare focus is on countering acute COVID-19 effects in emergency care patients. However, two distinct SARS-CoV-2 syndrome phases have been already identified: while the first acute phase is characterised by a prevalent respiratory syndrome, the second one which accompanies gradual respiratory syndrome recovery is marked by a prolonged bed rest syndrome and invasive mechanical ventilation sequelae. This means that following the acute infection stage, worldwide health services will have to cope with the significant secondary issue, namely large numbers of patients...

Identifying Predictors of Disease Progression and Tracking Viral Spread in COVID-19 Using Contin...

COVID-19 presents several unique challenges within cardiovascular care. While patients with preexisting CVD appear to be at an increased risk for severe disease and/or death, infection has also been shown to produce a number of CV sequelae, including cardiogenic shock and heart failure, in patients with no known CVD. Further complicating the management of cardiovascular care in COVID-19 are the adverse cardiovascular side effects produced by nearly all investigational therapies currently being tested, as well as, the unknown effects of standard care therapies used for the management of pree...

Efficacity of probiotics on coronavirus in order to overcome upcoming outbreaks

The objective of this project is to develop efficient and resistant probiotic based cleaners to reduce and limit the proliferation of the coronavirus (SARS-Cov-2) responsible of the covid-19 pandemic. Hard surfaces cleaner (dedicated to hospitals and house care cleaning), as well as hands cleaner will be developed based on the synergy between probiotics formulation as well as active natural and environmentally friendly molecules designed for cleaning. Probiotics were shown to have beneficial effect on several viral diseases, while microbial based cleaning products have shown to red...

Innovative end-to-end solution for respiratory diseases detection and genotyping

Our innovative end-to-end solution for respiratory diseases detection and genotyping is composed of 3 main compoenets as follows: First, we want, through a multiplex qPCR assay, to target and differentiate in priority COVID-19, SARS, H5N1, H1N1 (devastating diseases) from seasonal flu (under control). Second, we propose to develop an NGS and SANGER assay for the following Intended uses: Respiratory diseases Genotyping, Screening, Monitoring, Quasispecies identification, Epidemiological studies. Third, we target to establish a large COVID-19 and SARS worldwide database , compare patient ...
