SUMMARY:ICVS Seminar "Microbial-derived adjuvants for chemotherapy"
DESCRIPTION:Don’t miss Filipe Cabreiro “Microbial-derived adjuvants for chemotherapy” at the A0.03 auditorium in UMinho’s School of Medicine. \nFilipe Cabreiro is a Professor at the Univesity of Cologne and a Reader at the Institute of Clinical Sciences (ICS)\, Imperial College London. Professor Cabreiro is a biochemist from training and obtained his PhD from the Universite Paris Diderot in France. He then joined the laboratory of Prof David Gems at the University College London. His seminal work led to a paradigm shift in the use of C. elegans for studying host-microbe-drug interactions in the context of ageing. His lab combines classical and advanced microbial genetics and high-throughput genomic and chemical approaches\, targeted metabolomics and computational approaches to study both host and microbial physiology. His current research aims to gain insight into the gut microbial action of drugs and metabolites in mice and humans. His lab aims at developing pharmacological strategies to target the microbiota improving metabolic disease and aging in humans.

SUMMARY:ICVS Advanced Seminar “Neuroregeneration in a Trauma Hospital Setting”
DESCRIPTION:Next thursday at 12 pm\, don’t miss an ICVS Advanced Seminar with David Hercher “Neuroregeneration in a Trauma Hospital Setting” at the A0.03 auditorium in UMinho’s School of Medicine. \nDavid Hercher obtained his M.Sc. in Molecular Biology at the University of Vienna and his Dr. scient. med. at the Medical University of Vienna. Since 2017\, he is the head of the Neuroregeneration Group at the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Traumatology\, Vienna\, Austria\, where he is working for 14 years in the field of regenerative medicine. His group focuses its research on the investigation of regenerative processes after injuries to the nervous system and the subequent development of targeted novel treatment options for peripheral and central nervous injuries. Furthermore\, the groups interests lie in the elucidation of modes of action of mechanical stimuli on neuronal/glial cells and tissues as well as non-viral gene therapy and novel imaging modalities and their application in the field of regenerative medicine. \n

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.
