In-vivo CAR-T Therapy for Glioblastoma by Novel Non-Viral Gene Editing System
Aperçu du projet
Challenge CAR-T therapies have delivered promising results for certain hematological cancers but remain largely ineffective for solid tumours with failure nodes including complex and hostile tumor microenvironments and the lack of adapted technological tools. We propose to adapt a novel gene editing system to develop an in-vivo CAR-T gene editing…

Does SARS-CoV-2 infection increase cognitive decline via myelin loss in older individuals? Background: One in 4 persons infected with SARS-CoV-2 (the COVID-19 virus) shows cognitive decline. This decline could be related to white matter damage. The white matter is made of axons connecting neurons with each other. The integrity of…

Aperçu du projet
Each year, over 312 million patients undergo surgery. Anesthesia is a drug-induced reversible, comatose state that facilitates surgery. It is widely assumed cognition returns to baseline afterwards. Surgery and anesthesia induce stress responses in the body, potentially damaging brain cells. Many patients develop postoperative neurocognitive disorders (PND), including delirium (fluctuating…

Aperçu du projet
Palliative care (PC) is an area of medicine that focuses on symptom control and quality of life of patients with life-limiting illnesses and their families. PC can be provided at any point in the cancer experience, even alongside cancer treatments. PC can improve symptoms and quality of life, but the…
