In this seminar international experts and junior speakers from the UiO:Life Science convergence environment PerCaThe will discuss innovative methods for personalized and precision cancer therapy. Topics covered in the seminar include drug sensitivity screening, machine learning and combined mathematical, statistical and imaging methods for cancer modeling and simulation of drug treatment.
Collaboration between Pharma industry and Academia. The aim of the conference is to show how real world evidence (RWE) is changing the landscape for drug development and clinical use and to present RWE Initiatives that put the Nordic region in the forefront.
Refreshments and mingling in Oslo City Hall for all participants of the conference. You need at ticket to attend the reception. All who have registered, will get their ticket on email by the end of week 6. The reception is fully booked, but you may sign up for the waiting list.
At the Oslo Life Science Conference 5-year anniversary we looked ahead into the new decade. What will life sciences bring us in 2020–2030? What is the role of artificial intelligence (AI)? What are the visions for academia, hospitals and industry in a rapidly changing world where we need sustainable solutions? How can Oslo and Norway strengthen its position as a leading life science hub in Europe?
Biomaterials hosts an open mini-seminar on the use of extracellular vesicles and platelet lysate in cell-free regenerative therapies and as cost-effective cell culture supplement.
To develop your idea into a growing business you need an excellent and well-functioning team. Learn more about what it takes to build a team and establish and grow a successful business and use the opportunity to discuss with an experienced industry expert during this interactive seminar.
Dr. Colm Ryan, Assistant Professor at the University College Dublin, will present the lecture "Identifying robust genetic interactions in cancer."
Forming a business partnership can be beneficial or even vital to obtain success, but it has to be done correctly. If not, it can be catastrophic. Learn more about what it takes to secure a successful partnering and finance setup. What are the pitfalls? What is critical? What are the dos and don'ts?
Procedures that work in the lab don’t always scale-up seamlessly into production in the life science industry. Process development while staying compliant will be required. What should be considered when you work in lab-scale to make the transition to production smoother? What are the common pitfalls, and what are the dos and don’ts?
On the occasion of Professor Karl Schenck's retirement, the faculty will host the symposium "Digital possibilities in research".
Dr. Tero Aittokallio, Professor at the Oslo Centre for Biostatistics and Epidemiology and Group Leader at the Institute for Cancer Research, Oslo, Norway, will present his lecture "Predictive modelling of drug combination effects for precision medicine."
Vi feirer 50-?rsdagen for Odd Hassels Nobelpris i kjemi: Program og p?melding til Hassel-seminaret 31. oktober til og med 1. november.
This symposium brings together world leaders in the ER proteostasis field in Oslo to showcase new research in this burgeoning field and its links to different aspects of normal cellular function as well as disease states, and aims stimulate new collaborative research.
The Nansen Neuroscience Lectures (NNL) honour Nansen’s ground-breaking contribution to neuroscience and since 10.10.2010 are part of the Academy’s Nansen celebration. This year, Morten Scheibye-Knudsen, Center for Healthy Aging (CEHA), University of Copenhagen, will speak on "Discovering interventions for healthier, happier and more productive ageing".
Repurposing of drugs can potentially bring medications with known safety profiles to new patient groups. What is the industry looking for when they consider to invest in a repurposing project? What is the regulatory framework in this area? How is IP handled?
We are pleased to announce that Dr. Adam Novak will be the guest speaker of our upcoming Sven Furberg Seminar in Bioinformatics and Statistical Genomics on the coming Friday, Sep 27, at 14:30 in Lille auditorium, Kristen Nygaards hus.
Dr. Adam Novak, senior software engineer in the UCSC Genomics Institute, will present his lecture "Graph-based genome representations".
Abstract:
Graph-based approaches to genomics problems can beat out traditional linear-reference-based tools, reducing reference allele bias and improving structural variant calling. For these reasons and others, graph genomics techniques are becoming more popular, and more graph-based tools are being developed. Here I present lessons on genome graph API design learned during the development of the vg variation graph toolkit. I show how techniques and libraries extracted from vg can be used to help developers quickly bootstrap new graph-based projects, forming an ecosystem of interoperable graph genomics tools.
Dr. Liliana Liverani will hold a seminar about the research activities at Institute of Biomaterials at Friedrich-Alexander-University Erlangen-Nuremberg. The seminar is free and open for all.
A part of Nordic Life Science Awards that features exciting academic projects from five Nordic countries illustrating the rich and broad research milieus and their motivation to advance their ideas into innovations for patients.
Clinical trials are essential to develop new treatments. What are the fundamental issues that must be considered when designing clinical trials? What are the pitfalls? What are the dos and don’ts?
The UiO:Life Science ImmunoLingo Convergence Environment Symposium.
Richard van Wezel, Professor of visual neuroscience and Vice dean of research, the Faculty of Science, Radboud Universitety will present his work on the use of smart glasses to reduce freezing of gait in Parkinson's patients.
The scope of the workshop: This international workshop brings together scientist from a wide range of fields with a special interest in bio-mechanics phenomena from cellular scale to the size of organs. Through a series of short talks the participants will present their work, where the workshop strives to stimulate scientific exchange and to initiate new collaborations.
Professor Massimo Costalonga will give the lecture "Diagnostic and Prognostic Test for Periodontitis and Peri-implantitis"
Patent strategy is an important part of the innovation process. On this seminar you will hear from experts from Inven2 and learn how you can build a solid patent strategy.
