Den här månaden samarbetar vi med StratNeuro, som kommer att bjuda in Giovanna Mallucci till deras lunchseminarieserie den 13 maj 2024, kl. 12:00 i BioClinicum. Senare på eftermiddagen kommer vi att ha en informell frågestund riktad till doktorander i rum B0313 i Biomedicum.
Föreläsare
Giovanna Mallucci, Fellow of the Academy of Medical Sciences and PI at the Altos Labs Cambridge Institute of Science (UK)
Dr. Giovanna Mallucci is currently a Principal Investigator at the Altos Labs Cambridge Institute of Science. Previously, she served as the Van Geest Professor of Clinical Neurosciences and Center Director of the UK Dementia Research Institute at the University of Cambridge. Dr. Mallucci is also a practicing neurologist specializing in dementia and is recognized as a Fellow of the Academy of Medical Sciences. In 2021, she was honored with the Potamkin Prize for Research in Pick's, Alzheimer's, and Related Disorders.
Dr. Mallucci's research focuses on modeling prion diseases in mice and understanding and treating neurodegenerative diseases, particularly through exploring the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR) and PERK-eIF2alfa mediated translational regulation. Her work has led to the discovery of repurposable drugs now in clinical trials and the identification of 'hibernation' proteins involved in synapse regeneration with therapeutic potential.
