PhD Discussions Sessions: Nimesh Ramesh and Sock Ching Low

Microfluidic device for engineering 3D epithelial monolayers with controlled pressure Nimesh Ramesh, Integrative Cell and Tissue Dynamics The remarkable feature of the epithelial sheets is to form specialized 3D structures suited to their physiological roles, such as highly branched structures in the lungs, drastic shape changes during embryonic development, or self-organizing organoids. These tissues are ... Read more

PhD Thesis Defense: Sock Ching Low

Giving Centre Stage to Top-Down Inhibitory Mechanisms for Selective Attention Sock Ching Low, SPECS (Synthetic, Perceptive, Emotive and Cognitive Systems) Selective attention determines the sensory signals that are processed at higher levels at the expense of others and is biased by higher-order brain regions which anticipate task-relevant stimuli and increase neural sensitivity to them in ...

Online IBEC Seminar: Silvia Muro

Targeted drug delivery: fundamental aspects and translational applications Silvia Muro, IBEC The design of strategies to enable efficient and safe delivery of therapeutic agents to areas of the body requiring intervention is an active research field. Therapeutic targets are often confined to specific regions or tissues in the body, where access may require active transport ... Read more

PhD Discussions Sessions: Gerard Rubí and Ignasi Ferrer

Development of an in vitro three-dimensional colorectal tumor model for drug screening Gerard Rubí, Biomaterials for Regenerative Therapies The majority of morphogenetic and pathological processes are driven by cells responding to the surrounding matrix cues, including matrix composition, architecture, and mechanical properties. Despite the increased evidence of extracellular matrix (ECM) properties, in vitro substitutes still ... Read more

Online IBEC Seminar: Jordi Alcaraz

Improving lung cancer management by reengineering tumor-associated fibroblasts Jordi Alcaraz, UB facultat de Medicina & IBEC Associated Researcher Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death due in part to subtoptimal patient responses to current therapies, which have been largely designed to targeting cancer cell abnormalities. However, there is a paradigm shift in cancer ... Read more
