Introduction
In FP7, marine related projects are to be found across all themes of the Specific programme
COOPERATION.
Theme 2: “Food, Agriculture and Fisheries, and Biotechnologies” plays a key role to support marine related
research projects through 3 activities:
- Activity 2.1. Sustainable production and management of biological resources from land, forest and
aquatic environments,
- Activity 2.2 Fork to farm: Food (including seafood), health and well-being,
- Activity 2.3 Life sciences, biotechnology and biochemistry for sustainable non-food products and
processes.
The EU will earmark more than € 1.9 billion for funding this theme and the knowledge bio-based economy
over the duration of FP7 (2007-2013).
Each of the three activities comprises marine related areas such as sustainable production and
management of fisheries and aquaculture, quality and safety in food products (including seafood) as well
as marine biotechnologies.
This interim catalogue presents 44 marine related projects selected for funding under Theme 2 for
a total EU contribution of around 125 Million €. Most of the projects are already running and some of
them are about to start (Call KBBE 2009).

Novel technologies for surveillance of emerging and re-emerging infections of wildlife
With the increasing impact of mankind’s activities on the natural environment, disease naturally harboured by wild
animals, both within the geographical limits of the EU and elsewhere, are becoming increasingly significant both for
public health and health of livestock, in addition to having direct concerns for wild animal species. We are proposing
a project which will combine (i) technological development to enable high through-put array-based screening of
samples from a wide variety of wild animals with (ii) surveillance of terrestrial, aerial and marine wild animal species
within Europe and from countries which act as portals of disease entry into the EU, (iii) epidemiological analysis
and risk assessment using data generated during the project and from other sources, and (iv) development and
proposal of a model framework for disease surveillance within Europe developed in parallel with the burgeoning
systems in North America. The proposal will place the EU at the centre of wildlife disease surveillance and also
enable the translation of high throughput array-based technologies into human and veterinary medicine.
