HealthTech World Cancer Day 2020 “Smarter technologies to beat cancer!”
IBEC-managed Spanish Nanomedicine Platform, NanoMed Spain, is co-hosteing the seventh edition of Health TECH World Cancer Day, a global initiative organized as part of World Cancer Day. It’s the fifth year running that the platform hosts the conference, which will take place next 3rd February at Sala Pau Viladiu at Hospital Duran i Reynals. Josep Samitier (Scientific Coordinator of NANOMED Spain and Director of the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia) and Isabel Fabregat (Coordinator of the Molecular Mechanisms and Experimental Therapy in Oncology Program and Researcher at IDIBELL) will be in charge of the opening ceremony.
New advances in the improvement of the design of drugs against glial globular tauopathy
José Antonio del Río, principal investigator at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) together with Dr. Isidre Ferrer from Bellvitge Biomedical Research Institute (IDIBELL) led a study where they have unraveled that the pathology shown by patients with Globular Glial Tauopathy is due to the generation of harmful protein deposits for neurons and glial cells.

Tauopathies are characterized by the accumulation of phosphorylated tau protein, that associates with phosphate groups.

IBEC leads a European Project to evaluate drug response in organ-on-a-chip devices
A group of researchers from the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) leads the European project BLOC, an initiative led by researchers Javier Ramón and Irene Marco that seeks to evaluate the response to different drugs in metabolic diseases using organ-in-a- chip by using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). For this, the consortium will have a budget of almost 3 million euros, financed by the Horizon 2020 FET Open program.
