  1. Two new publications for GlioME Team
  2. Welcome to Mensah, a new Master 2 student in team 10 !

    Our team is pleased to welcome Mensah Loko for a 6 months Master internship (from November 2022) in Integrative Biology and Physiology: Integrative approach to the functions of life: from gene to pathology. The subject of his internship is the role of Adrenomedullin expressed by glioblastoma-associated endothelial cells in promoting a stable and functional angiogenesis.

  3. 3 first author papers for team 9 three PhD students

    We are happy to celebrate the release of 3 first author papers on Myotoxin-3 from a snake venom as a new microtubule targeting agent, on the mechanism of action of Zinc induced aggregation of tau, and a review article on tau as a therapeutic target for cancer, for team 9 three PhD students : Cecilia, Dahbia and Rayane, this month :

  4. Welcome to Clara Camilla, New PhD student in team 10

    Clara Camilla, PhD student, Biology-Health - Oncology speciality, is starting her thesis on the theme: "Evaluation of Longitudinal Genomic Alterations in Diffuse Low Grade Gliomas in Adults".

  5. The GlioME team has obtained a "Action Structurante" funding for the creation of the PETRA facility

    Emeline Tabouret and Aurélie Tchoghandjian, in collaboration with Thierry Virolle's team at the l'Institut de Biologie Valrose in Nice, are among the two winners to have obtained "Action structurante" funding from the Cancéropôle PACA.

    This funding aims to structure the neuro-oncology at the preclinical and translational level in the region (between Marseille and Nice) and will be used to create the PETRA (PrEclinical and TRAnslational Research) platform on these two sites.

  6. New publication from the GlioME team

    Chiara Bastiancich published the last article of her first postdoc on GRAVITY project 🎉
    The challenging goal was: delivering to the brain metallic nanoparticles via focused ultrasound-mediated blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeabilization, to heat them using lasers for glioblastoma photothermal therapy! In this paper she shows one of the steps to reach this daunting task.

    ==> Molecular Imaging of Ultrasound-Mediated Blood-Brain Barrier Disruption in a Mouse Orthotopic Glioblastoma Model

  7. New publication from PINT facility in Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences

    Géraldine Ferracci (Study Engineer on the PINT platform) participated in the publication entitled "Molecular landscape of BoNT/B bound to a membrane inserted synaptotagmin/ganglioside complex" which appeared on August 25, 2022 in Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences.

    Abstract :

  8. Pôle spectrométrie de masse de la plateforme PINT

    Après une période transitoire où il est resté sur le site de la faculté Nord, le spectromètre de masse de l'INP (Thermo Scientific Q-exactive) est arrivé sur le site Timone cet été. Maya Belghazi ayant quitté l'INP pour rejoindre l'IMM, Claude Villard est dorénavant votre seul interlocuteur pour les projets en lien avec cet appareil.

Posters presented by two BUT students

The GlioME team and the PETRA platform welcomed two BUT students, Ludivine Rouillon and Emilie Louat, for their end-of-year internship.

Their internship ended with a presentation of their work as posters entitled: "Développement d'un modèle pré-clinique 3D de tumoroïdes dérivé de tumeurs du SNC pour l'étude de molécules thérapeutiques" and "Analyse de l'expression de la protéine AP après traitement au témozolomide ou radiothérapie dans le glioblastome".

Nadia Merad Coliac en Résidence artistique de recherche

Assistée par Guillaume Thoraval, souffleur de l’université Paris cité, Nadia a elle-même créé des pièces en verre. Elle a été accueillie par le Fab-Lab de Paris Sorbonne, au labo de biologie pour la mise en culture et l’entretien des bactéries. L’œuvre   présentée les 23 et 24 mai a reçu un franc succès et la qualité, ainsi que la démarche scientifique et artistique ont impressionnés les professionnels du milieu de l’art et les membres de l’institut de France, à laquelle est affiliée la fondation Laccolade.

Une exposition collective est prévue pour l’année prochaine.
