YOUNG RESEARCHERS FROM CASTILLA-LA MANCHA PRESENT THEIR RESULTS ON THERAPEUTIC NANOPARTICLES IN TOLEDO.

On September 6, the first scientific meeting of the Institute of Nanoscience, Nanotechnology and Molecular Materials (INAMOL) belonging to the University of Castilla-La Mancha was held, attended by more than 50 scientists.


Within this meeting, the doctoral students and postdoctoral recruits from the Femtoscience and Time-Resolved Microscopy group, directed by Prof. Abderrazzak Douhal, and the UCLM-CSIC Neurodeath Associated Unit, directed by Prof. Valentín Ceña, presented the results of their scientific projects that will lead, for the vast majority of them, to obtaining a doctorate degree.


The results presented covered both the characterization of nanoparticles with temporal resolution levels in the femtosecond range and the application of various nanoparticles as carriers of genetic material in the therapy of glioblastoma, a type of brain cancer with a very poor prognosis.


The scientific results presented are framed in the Line of Action 5: “Development of nanodrugs, biodistribution, toxicity and therapeutic actions in pathology models” within the project of the area “Biotechnology applied to health” entitled “Development of tools for diagnosis, prognosis and advanced or directed therapies in personalized medicine” belonging to the Complementary Plans charged to the recovery, transformation and resilience funds.
