SUMMARY:Sagittal Alignment and Anterior Correction Techniques Instructional Course
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the Sagittal Alignment and Anterior Correction Techniques Instructional Course focusing on the sagittal parameters and techniques to achieve global sagittal alignment through the disc space via the various Anterior approaches to the Spine. Sagittal plane measurements are recognized as being the most important radiographic parameters across numerous spinal pathologies. You will therefore learn how to analyse the key Sagittal parameters by identifying imbalance and how to work through the ways of identifying the best surgical options for each patient. The various anterior approaches are then described and trained by the expert faculty to be followed by hands-on practice in the cadaveric lab. The course concludes with discussion around the associated vascular complications with hands-on repair techniques in the live tissue lab. This course is a unique opportunity to combine and get familiar with the pre-op sagittal alignment planning and the surgical treatment of the degenerative deformities of the spine by sharing knowledge between the faculty and delegates.

SUMMARY:ICVS Advanced Seminar "Survival strategies of malaria parasites in the dry season"
DESCRIPTION:Next Monday at 1 pm\, don’t miss Silvia Portugal “Survival strategies of malaria parasites in the dry season” at the A0.03 auditorium in UMinho’s School of Medicine. \nDr. Silvia Portugal’s academic journey began with a Biology degree from the Faculty of Sciences at the University of Porto\, awarded in 2003. She advanced her expertise with a Ph.D. from the Institute of Molecular Medicine (IMM) and the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Lisbon\, completed in 2010. Her postdoctoral tenure at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) from 2011 to 2016 was pivotal\, as she conducted significant research into the molecular mechanisms of malaria pathogenesis. In 2016\, Dr. Portugal took on the role of Junior Group Leader at Heidelberg University\, where she led groundbreaking research projects until 2020. Her work during this period focused on deciphering the complexities of Plasmodium falciparum’s life cycle and its evasion of the human immune system. Since 2020\, Dr. Portugal has been leading her research group at the Max Planck Institute for Infection Biology as a Lise Meitner Group Leader\, a prestigious position within the Lise Meitner Excellence Program. Her group’s research has been pivotal in identifying key factors that contribute to the persistence of malaria parasites during the dry season\, a crucial aspect of malaria transmission. Dr. Portugal’s research has been published in numerous high-impact scientific journals\, establishing her as a thought leader in the field. Her insights into the adaptive strategies of malaria parasites and their implications for malaria control are particularly influential. As a speaker at major scientific conferences\, Dr. Portugal’s presentations not only share her groundbreaking findings but also encourage collaborative efforts to combat malaria globally. Her curriculum vitae reflects her commitment to scientific inquiry\, with a focused aim of improving global health outcomes through her research on malaria.

SUMMARY:ICVS Advanced Seminar "Alzheimer’s disease – pathomechanisms\, therapeutic antibodies and low-intensity ultrasound as a new treatment modality"
DESCRIPTION:Next monday at 1 pm\, don’t miss an ICVS Advanced Seminar with Jürgen Götz “Alzheimer’s disease – pathomechanisms\, therapeutic antibodies and low-intensity ultrasound as a new treatment modality” at the A0.03 auditorium in UMinho’s School of Medicine. \nProfessor Jürgen Götz is the Lesleigh Green – Bill and Nancy Green Endowed Chair in Dementia Research and inaugural Director of the Clem Jones Centre for Ageing Dementia Research (University of Queensland). Professor Götz studied biochemistry in Switzerland and earned his PhD in immunology with Nobel Laureate Köhler in Germany. After postdoctoral work at UCSF and at Novartis\, he became a group leader in Zürich\, before moving to the University of Sydney in 2005\, and then to the University of Brisbane (Queensland Brain Institute) in 2012. A major focus of his laboratory is to gain insight into how tau and amyloid both separately and synergistically contribute to Alzheimer’s disease. In recent years\, the laboratory has started to develop therapeutic ultrasound into a treatment modality for Alzheimer’s disease and other brain diseases\, both by transiently opening the blood-brain barrier and as a neuromodulatory tool. Professor Götz has published 230 papers in leading journals including Cell\, Science and Neuron\, and has authored many authoritative reviews in the Nature Reviews journal family.

SUMMARY:ICVS Advanced Seminar “Xenograft model to study human microglia in vivo”
DESCRIPTION:Next Monday at 1 pm\, don’t miss Anna Martinez-Muriana “Xenograft model to study human microglia in vivo” at the A0.03 auditorium in UMinho’s School of Medicine. \nAnna Martinez-Muriana obtained her PhD in 2018 under the supervision of Prof. Ruben Lopez-Vales in Barcelona\, Spain. From those studies\, she gained interest in the role of the microglia in neurodegeneration. In 2019\, she moved to Belgium to do a postdoc at the laboratory of Prof. Bart De Strooper\, a renown Alzheimer’s disease researcher. During this stage\, Anna deepen her knowledge in microglia and pioneered a human microglia xenotransplantation model\, opening unprecedented venues to study human microglia genetics\, development and disease. \n
