Personalized Medicine – Multimedia

Currently, various treatments are available to cancer patients, such as chemotherapy, targeted therapy and immunotherapy. Targeted therapy is a type of precision medicine that targets the proteins that control the growth, division and spread of cancer cells.

The University of Szeged is one of Hungary’s leading research institutions with a long history of pioneering scientific achievements. For generations, the university’s scholars have been focused on collecting and storing biological samples for educational purposes as well as for clinical, biomedical and physiological research.

In this episode of TSE explores we will be speaking to Dr Julia Steinberg.

Complex 3D biological models such as organoids and patient-derived spheroids are gaining popularity in many biomedical research areas because they more closely recapitulate in vivo tissues.

Technological advances along with developments in molecular medicine and data science have fueled the exploration of personalized medicine, as a result, several fields are already benefiting. Download this eBook to learn more about the topic.

The use of organoids, self-organized three-dimensional (3D) assemblies of cells, as research tools has become more common due to their ability to better recapitulate human disease compared to more traditional models.

In this Teach Me in 10, we are joined by Dr. Clare Paterson from SomaLogic. Dr. Paterson discusses the power of proteomics, exploring how proteomics has evolved from assessments of single analytes to sensitive, specific and high throughput technologies capable of generating a wealth of invaluable data.

Gene therapy is an effective tool for modifying genetic material within a cell. This pioneering form of precision medicine addresses health conditions caused by mutated, faulty or malfunctioning genes within cells.

Download this eBook to learn more about identifying new treatments, using in vitro and in vivo models for drug screening as well as predicting patient drug responses to cancer organoids.

Drugs elicit their desired therapeutic effects by interacting with specific disease-related targets. However, to determine exactly how a drug works inside the body it is important to address key questions. What type of drug is being used? How is it being administered? What are the characteristics of the individual taking the drug?
