Introducing INSPIRE: Innovative Detection Tools for Monitoring Skeletal Diseases and Cancer across Species
Did you know that by 2050, from the 9.7B world’s population, 2.1B will be people aged 60 years, outnumbering 5-year-olds? This brings important challenges for society, economy and specially for healthcare systems, concerns UN and European Union. Ageing impacts health and increase pressure over healthcare systems. Thus, age-related diseases required to bridge science and clinical care for earlier detection, prevention and personalized treatments.
In INSPIRE we aim to contribute with novel strategies to study and monitor skeletal diseases and cancer. INSPIRE will contribute to bridge the gap between basic & applied research, contributing to more accurate, timely, and effective healthcare solutions.
INSPIRE, led by the PhD Margarida Dias, aims to bring innovation to bioproduction biotherapeutics (SDG9, 12) and develop novel tools to monitor age related diseases (SDG3).
This project will provide a novel tool to monitor disease that are more affordable than conventional methods (SDG3). Thus, INSPIRE project is aligned with UN2030 sustainability goals 3, 9 and 12, as well as the European Green Deal and Beating Cancer plan promoted by EU.
Positions opening soon.
