  8. Canceropole Seminar Series #5 with Ludovic Leloup

    Depuis janvier 2022, le Canceropôle a lancé les « Seminar Series ». Ces nouveaux rendez-vous mensuels d’une heure (13h-14h) permettent à un binôme de chercheurs (un.e expert.e niçois.e et un.e expert.e marseillais.e.) de présenter en visioconférence leurs sujets d’étude, projets, actualités… L'objectif étant d'animer la communauté de recherche en cancérologie et faire connaître les expertises des équipes de recherche de la région.

    Le cinquième rendez-vous le mardi 31 mai 2022 de 13h à 14h, avec au programme :

Tous et toutes au recyclage !

Depuis lundi 3 Avril, l'INP participe à une opération inter-laboratoires de quantification de déchets recyclables professionnels (et ménagers) sur le campus Timone. 
Pour cela, chaque aile a été aménagée avec des points de collecte et de tri sélectif. Chaque semaine, les différentes catégories seront pesées puis emmenées au recyclage pour valorisation.

Maud Gratuze, new team leader, first INP publication

In collaboration with the Holtzman lab., Maud Gratuze, with her colleagues Monica Xiong and Chao Wang, published an article on a project developed during her postdoc in the USA. In this study, entitled "Astrocytic APOE4 removal confers cerebrovascular protection despite increased cerebral amyloid angiopathy" and recently published in Molecular Neurodegeneration, they reduced ApoE4, the strongest genetic risk factor in Alzheimer’s disease, specifically derived from astrocytes in a mouse model of cerebral amyloid angiopathy.
