Research and Development: innovative activities performed by corporations or governments for the creation, discovery and advancement of services and products.
General anesthesia is a drug-induced, reversible condition comprised of five behavioral states: unconsciousness, amnesia (loss of memory), analgesia (loss of pain sensation), akinesia (immobi...
How does a low-level sensory representation rise into conscious awareness? What determines whether higher-order cortical areas have access to the representational content in sensory regions?...
Since its initial description more than 70 years ago, autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has been diagnosed more frequently in boys. However, we remain unsure of why males are affected in greater...
Is sensory awareness facilitated by activity in only sensory cortices? For several decades, this has been the dominant viewpoint among many prominent voices in both neuroscience and philosoph...
CRISPR Cas9 nucleases have revolutionized gene editing enabling unprecedented efficiency of targeted mutagenesis. Even with such powerful technology at hand, sophisticated projects, su...
Most neuropsychiatric diseases involve multifactorial systems characterized by complex interactions among genetic predisposition/resiliency, environmental/social determinants, molecular seque...
Biomedical research depends on the use of model systems to explore basic biology, probe disease mechanisms, and conduct drug discovery and development. However, results from such systems are...
98% of small molecules and 100% of large molecules do not cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Biologics, including therapeutic antibodies (e.g. anti-amyloid antibodies), have been at the for...

GPCRs constitute the largest receptor family in the human genome. Over the years they have proven themselves to be druggable targets accounting for about 1/3 of all drugs on the market today....
Structure based drug design is now well established as a highly efficient approach in pharmaceutical research. The approach uses atomic level detail structures of target proteins, most...
G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) represent the single largest class of druggable targets in the human genome. Of the 390 or so druggable and non-olfactory human GPCRs there exist many whic...
Preterm birth (PTB) is the leading cause of infant mortality and morbidity worldwide. Both preterm labor and neonatal injuries have been linked to inflammation. Of all mediators of inflammati...
The field of melanoma has been transformed by the parallel development of effective immune and targeted therapies. There is now strong evidence of cross-talk between oncogenic signaling...
Pharmacogenomics has emerged as an early use case of precision medicine. Delivering this new clinical data to clinicians in a ready to use format can be challenging. This talk wil...

The path form biomarker discovery to conversion to a clinically useful companion diagnostic test presents many challenges. The talk will outline the regulatory requirements to developing a su...
Vaccibody has developed a unique platform technology able to substantially potentiate vaccines by an inherent mechanism that attract, activate and deliver antigens to antigen presenting cells...
In the last years a number of advanced nanotechnologies have been proposed developed for the administration of drugs (nanomedicines for drug delivery), in order to provide possibilities...
Rett syndrome (RTT) is a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by mutations in the Methyl CpG Binding Protein 2 (MECP2) gene. In mouse models of RTT, deficits in long-term potentiation (LTP) at...
The distinction between "complementary" and "companion" diagnostics tests confuse many physicians and healthcare professionals. Panelists Professor Thomas Webster (Northea...
There are many tumor biomarkers but, they mostly reflect tumor mass or past growth, when what is more important is to obtain an indication of future growth and therapy response.Proliferat...
