DONATE

Benedetta Bolognesi and Ben Lehner win competitive funding to join forces against neurodegenerative diseases 

The “la Caixa” Foundation will fund a large and innovative research project co-led by IBEC Junior Group Leader Benedetta Bolognesi and by ICREA research professor Ben Lehner at CRG, which aims to gain a better understanding of the genetic causes leading to neurodegenerative diseases. Researchers will combine deep mutagenesis and machine learning techniques to produce a “map of dementia” as a method to predict whether a person is more susceptible to suffer these diseases. 

Samuel Sánchez’s Nanorobots against cancer will accelerate with support from the “La Caixa” Foundation

Samuel Sánchez and his team at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC), earned the competitive call CaixaResearch for Health Research to develop nanorobots against bladder cancer. Sánchez, a pioneer in the field of self-propelled nanorobots, proposes to move in this way towards solutions against one of the most common, recurring and expensive forms of cancer to treat.
