SUMMARY:IBEC Seminar: Nick Brown
DESCRIPTION:Linking cell adhesion receptors with the cytoskeleton in morphogenesis\nProf. Nick Brown\, Dept of Physiology\, Development and Neuroscience\, University of Cambridge\nWe use Drosophila development as our test tube to dissect mechanisms of integrin-mediated adhesion to the extracellular matrix\, tackling these questions: \n-How is the adhesion structure built?\n-What are the roles of the many adhesome components?\n-How did the integrin machinery arise during evolution?\n-Can we establish an integrated model of integrin adhesion sites?

SUMMARY:IBEC Seminar: Jaume Veciana
DESCRIPTION:Multifunctional molecular nanovesicles: A new challenge for drug delivery\nProf. Jaume Veciana\, ICMAB-CSIC and CIBER-BBN\, Campus Universitari de Bellaterra\nIn this lecture a simple one-step and scale-up methodology for preparing multifunctional nanovesicle-drug conjugates will be presented. This method is readily amenable to the integration/encapsulation of multiple bioactive components\, like peptides\, proteins\, enzymes\, into the vesicles in a single-step yielding sufficient quantities for clinical research becoming\, thereby\, nanocarriers to be used in nanomedicine. A couple of examples of novel nanomedicines for solving serious diseases\, prepared by this methodology\, will be presented.

SUMMARY:IBEC Seminar: Guy A. Dumont
DESCRIPTION:Signal Processing and Control: From Sleep Apnea to Automated Anesthesia\nDr Guy A. Dumont\, University of British Columbia\, Vancouver\nThis talk will describe a number of key projects undertaken by the Electrical and Computer Engineering for Medicine (ECEM) and the Paediatric Anesthesia Research team (PART) at the University of British Columbia. The commonality between those projects lies in the use of advanced signal processing and control for clinical applications. The applications span mobile health applications for use in both developed and developing word settings for pathologies such as pre-eclampsia\, pneumonia and obstructive sleep apnea as well as automated drug delivery in critical care settings.

SUMMARY:IBEC Seminar: Wieteke de Boer
DESCRIPTION:Optical activation of neurons through low power two-photon IR excitation of gold nanoparticles\nWieteke de Boer\, Departments of Biological Sciences and Neuroscience\, Columbia University\nSelective optical stimulation of specific classes of excitable cells is a major goal in neurobiology. Here we propose the approach of indirect photostimulation through gold nanoparticles (Au NPs)\, which are conjugated to the neuronal membrane. Au NPs are frequently used in biological research due to their versatile applicability: they have a broad optical tunability\, large absorption cross sections\, can be made chemically stable and biocompatible\, and most importantly they are non-invasive and non-toxic even up to excessively large quantities. We show that these NPs can facilitate reliable optical stimulation of neurons through the plasmonic effect using IR two-photon (2P) excitation\, with extremely low excitation powers. The NPs can be easily tethered to any targeted tissue and are known to be excreted without inducing any permanent damage. Using this approach\, Au NPs are an attractive alternative to genetic modification techniques (such as channelrhodopsins) as it circumvents potential issues often seen in those methods\, e.g. poor signal-to-noise ratio\, photo-instability\, photo-toxicity and expression efficiency.

SUMMARY:El present i el futur de la Fibrosi Quística
DESCRIPTION:El present i el futur de la Fibrosi Quística\n27/04/16\nEl dimecres 27 d’abril\, amb motiu del dia Nacional de la Fibrosi Quística\, l’IBEC organitza la jornada divulgativa “El present i el futur de la Fibrosi Quística”\, amb l’objectiu de conscienciar a la societat sobre la incidència d’aquesta malaltia\, informar dels aspectes clínics i donar a conèixer els resultats que s’estan assolint en el camp de la recerca. \nLa Fibrosi Quística és una malaltia genètica i hereditària que està present des de la concepció. Es calcula que cada any neixen a Catalunya uns 14 nens afectats per aquesta malaltia\, el que la converteix en la malaltia genètica hereditària més freqüent. Les estadístiques permeten afirmar que un de cada 25 individus és portador del gen de la malaltia\, el que significa\, per exemple\, que a Espanya hi ha d’1\,5 a 2 milions de persones portadores del gen de la Fibrosi Quística. \nGràcies a l’estudi genètic de la Fibrosi Quística\, s’ha experimentat grans avenços en els últims anys que han permès desenvolupar la investigació en diferents àmbits. La jornada està organitzada en estreta col·laboració amb l’Associació Catalana de Fibrosi Quística (ACFQ)\, que va néixer amb l’objectiu de lluitar per millorar la qualitat de vida dels malalts i de les seves famílies\, i té el suport de Pessics de Ciència\, projecte dedicat a fomentar la ciència fent-la propera\, atractiva i entenedora. \nL’esdeveniment s’articularà en dues activitats; una xerrada divulgativa per a estudiants de batxillerat\, i una taula rodona\, “Present i futur de la Fibrosi Quística: pacients\, clínica i recerca”\, dirigida al públic general que comptarà amb la presència de diferents personalitats\, experts clínics\, investigadors i representants de pacients. \n10:00 – 13:00: Xerrada divulgativa dirigida a alumnes de secundària\n19:00 – 20:30: Taula rodona “Present i futur de la Fibrosi Quística: pacients\, clínica i recerca” \nRegistration: https://ibecbarcelona.eu/events/Fibrosis-Quistica/registro.html
