SUMMARY:China-Luxembourg Forum | Cancer Research: One goal, multiple approaches
DESCRIPTION:How can fundamental research shed light on the molecular, cellular and genetic determinants that govern tumour formation and disease progression? If we better understand how a healthy cell becomes a cancer cell and how cells communicate with each other, can this help us to develop improved therapies?\n\nThe Confucius Institute at the University of Luxembourg in collaboration with the Department of Life Sciences and Medicine at the University of Luxembourg and the School of Basic Medical Sciences at Fudan University organise a forum entitled “Cancer Research: One goal, multiple approaches”.\n\nIn six short presentations, professors from the University of Luxembourg and Fudan University will explain the results of their respective scientific research on the malignant transformation of normal cells into cancer cells, the resulting activation of our body’s defence cells as well as the identification of possible molecular targets and strategies to fight cancer.\n\nThe speakers will look at the complexity of the molecular mechanisms that enable our cells to exchange information with each other, for example to coordinate the response of our body’s defence cells against cells that have become cancerous. Cancer cells themselves also develop “communication tools” that enable them to resist our immune defences so that they can continue to multiply. Elucidating these basic mechanisms with the help of state-of-the-art biological and bioinformatics technologies will pave the way for the identification of novel drug targets, thereby contributing to the development of future cancer therapies.\n\nAfter the presentations, the audience will have the opportunity to discuss with the speakers and ask for further details.\n\nMore information on this page\n\nRead more: https://www.uni.lu/fstm-en/events/china-luxembourg-forum-cancer-research-one-goal-multiple-approaches/
