Differential migration mechanics and immune response of glioblastoma subtypes David Odde, Dept. of Biomedical Eng., U. Minnesota Glioblastoma remains a deadly cancer driven by invasion of tumor cells into the brain. Transcriptomic analyses have revealed distinct molecular subtypes, but mechanistic and targetable differences that explain clinical differences are not clear. Using a state-of-the-art immunocompetent mouse ... Read more

Peptides and bioinstructive polymers on surfaces for prevention of oral infections Conrado Aparicio, Faculty of Odontology, UIC Barcelona and Associated Researcher – IBEC Oral infections are the most prevalent infectious diseases worldwide. We have explored bioinspired modification of surfaces of restorative/regenerative materials and implants as well as dental tissues to address oral infections by harnessing ... Read more
