Project description
 

This doctoral research is part of an SBO project: "Early warning monitoring system for Prediction of disease Outcome and for design of life Saving therapy in sepsis and inflammation" (EPOS) and emphasizes the realization of an infection model in the pig leading to the identification and kwantification of (anti) inflammatory markers in serum with the ability to predict (outcome of) disease.
