It is definitely out of question that antibiotics saved millions of people worldwide in the last century, and that they are still doing it very ... Read more

IBEC Seminar: Zev Gartner

Sala Baobab, Tower I, Floor 11 Baldiri i Reixac, Barcelona

Building tissues to understand how tissues build themselves Zev Gartner, UCSF Cells assemble into tissues and organs through an active process termed self-organization. Harnessing tissue self-organization will ultimately advance applications as diverse as disease modeling and regenerative medicine, while revealing new strategies for fighting disease. However, progress towards these applications is limited by our incomplete ... Read more

IBEC-IFIBYNE Webinar Cycle (online) 12th July 2023 at 16:00 Javier Ramon

Organ on a chip models to emulate multi systemic metabolic diseases Javier Ramon, IBEC Existing on-chip tissue models typically represent a single organ, limiting systemic drug investigations. Microscale tissue analog systems aim to improve drug and toxicity predictions across various organs. However, multi-organ devices are limited, and none have explored skeletal muscle and pancreatic islets. ... Read more
