Organized Events
Upcoming Events
On 22-25 October 2018, Protobios will be represented at the 2nd BIONECA Training School held at Neptun hotel in Dubrovnik, Croatia. The event is organized by the COST action CA16122 Biomaterials and Advanced Physical Techniques for Regenerative Cardiology and Neurology. The BIONECA School is innovative and interdisciplinary in character and it is addressed to students, PhD, post-doctorates, young scientists and senior scientists from different fields, in order to obtain scientific breakthroughs in BIONECA-related disciplines. More information about BIONECA and the School is available at:

Protobios will participate in the conference The Lancet Summit: Inflammation and Immunity in Disorders of the Brain and Mind, held on 15-17 November 2018 at NH Collection Barcelona Tower, Barcelona, Spain. The programme will cover recent, ongoing, and future research in the developing field of neuroimmunological disease including recent research findings regarding mechanisms of disease, and the translation of this knowledge into treatment, diagnosis, and the prevention of neurological and psychiatric disorders.

News
Pentti Tienari visit
In October 2018 the laboratories of Protobios were visited by leading Multiple sclerosis practicing MD and principal investigator from the University of Helsinki Prof Pentti Tienari and his lab technician Lilja Jansson. The visit was performed within the SZTest project. Our honourable guests shared their knowledge in field of neuro-immunology and introduced relevant advanced methods.
Nobel Prize for phage display
The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2018 was assigned to George P. Smith and Sir Gregory P. Winter for the invention of phage display of peptides and antibodies, as well as Frances H. Arnold for the directed evolution of enzymes. These two powerful methods of screening are fundamentally used in manufacturing and drug development, including our labs!
