'Extracellular Vesicles' - research lunch organized by Dept. HSR

The department of Human Structure and Repair (HSR) hosts a ‘research lunch’ meeting about Extracellular Vesicles. The meeting will be moderated by CRIG group leader prof. An Hendrix.

The analysis of extracellular vesicles (EV) in biofluids is under intense investigation and holds the potential to deliver clinically meaningful biomarkers for health and disease. During this research lunch, methodological developments enabling EV-based biomarker discovery and implementation will be discussed.

2 lectures:

1) Analyzing Extracellular Vesicles in Liquid Biopsies: The road towards standardization and clinical application
presented by : dr. Bert Dhondt (MD)

2) Development of tools to aid rigor and standardization in extracellular vesicle research
presented by : Claudio Pinheiro
