Consortium aiming to accelerate the development of systems for automated control of blood glucose in patients with diabetes. Consortium investigators seek to research and develop strategies, which can be commercialized, that will confer the long-term benefits of improved glycemic control by combining novel automated control algorithms and hormone therapies with continuous glucose monitors and pump devices. The field of closed-loop artificial pancreas research requires expert diabetologists partnering with expert mathematicians and engineers. Consortium investigators include endocrinologists and control theorists at research institutions in the US and in Europe. Many of the diabetes device manufacturers have also participated, providing pumps and sensors with enhanced capabilities that allow for closed-loop experiments to be performed. The goals of the consortium include: * Design, optimization, and clinical testing of multiple algorithmic approaches to closed-loop control * An in silico simulation platform, accepted by the FDA, for validating candidate closed-loop control algorithms in place of animal trials * Reusable templates for constructing the Investigational Device Exemption regulatory documents that must be approved by the FDA prior to any in-clinic, computer-assisted, closed-loop control research involving people * A modular software platform-the Artificial Pancreas System-with a protocol-independent user interface and hooks to incorporate an arbitrary control algorithm and control various continuous glucose monitors and pump devices * A secure consortium Web site with a central repository for experimental data and interfaces to submit candidate control algorithms for centralized validation and to upload or download clinical data sets * the first outpatient studies of an overnight controller * the first outpatient studies of a hypoglycemia minimization strategy * the development and testing of a modular treat-to-range closed-loop approach * multiple studies of dual hormone (insulin and glucagon) devices and a means to improve insulin kinetics Ongoing and recently completed in-clinic studies at the end of 2011 include investigations into hypoglycemia prediction and avoidance as well as fully-automated closed-loop control investigations using MPC and PID/PD-based algorithms.

The (Clinical) Institute of Neurology (IN) of the Medical University Vienna was founded in 1882 by Heinrich Obersteiner. It is the oldest institution embracing the multidisciplinarity of neurosciences and has served as model for the establishment of similarly designed institutions in many countries. The original location of the then Neurological Institute in Vienna was at Schwarzspanierstrasse. Since 1993, IN is located in the Vienna General Hospital in top-class laboratory facilities. IN is committed to its proud tradition as Obersteiner Institute and to a promising future of a nationally and internationally leading institution in the clinical neurosciences. Our work aims to translate the understanding of nervous diseases to the development of novel therapeutics and diagnostics. IN''''s tasks include diagnostic patient service, research and graduate / postgraduate teaching in neuropathology, neurochemistry, and neuro-molecular biology in an integrated way. Neuropathology is a recognized medical specialty in Austria. It analyzes structural changes of nervous tissues in disease. Diagnostic neuropathology makes use of most modern morphological techniques applied to diseased central, peripheral and vegetative nervous tissues and fluids, and muscle. Neuropathological diagnoses are a basis for disease classification and rational therapies. Neurodegenerative disorders, in particular prion diseases, virus diseases affecting the nervous system, and brain tumors (neuro-oncology) are research priorities. In the highly publicized area of prion diseases, IN has developed into a national and international center of excellence and expertise that leads several European, EU-funded networks in prion research. As an indispensable asset, the IN possesses a large brain bank that has systematically collected neuropathological specimens since 1948. Most samples are fixed and paraffin-embedded tissue only, but in a part of neurosurgical, nerve and muscle biopsies and autopsies, also fresh tissue is obtained, frozen and stored at -80 degrees C. Occasionally blood and CSF are also available. The unique neuropathological collection of histological slides, paraffin blocks and formol-fixed nervous tissues now comprises about 16.000 brain autopsies, 30.000 neurosurgical and 7.500 nerve/muscle biopsies. Also a number of cell cultures have been stored, mainly fibroblasts from patients with rare neurometabolic diseases, and primary cultures of brain tumors. IN participates in the EU-supported European Network of Brain Banks BrainNet Europe.
