In the quest to revolutionize how we understand and treat diseases, our research line on Creation of Novel Disease Models is pushing the boundaries of biomedical science. By developing innovative in vitro models that closely replicate human physiology, we aim to create powerful tools for uncovering the mechanisms of disease and accelerating the discovery of new therapies.

Our goal is to establish physiologically relevant disease models using human cells and tissues derived from patients. These models serve as invaluable platforms for studying the intricate processes of disease progression in a controlled environment, providing insights that are directly translatable to patient care.

To achieve these objectives, we are at the forefront of developing cutting-edge protocols for generating organoid cultures or organ-on-chip systems. These microphysiological systems, derived from both healthy and diseased cells, are designed to mimic the complex processes of cell differentiation, tissue composition, and organ physiology found in vivo. By replicating the progression of disease within these models, we can closely study the biological changes that occur, enabling the identification of novel therapeutic targets.

Our approach is deeply integrated with the advanced technologies used in our early disease detection projects, ensuring a comprehensive characterization of the models we create. We employ a range of techniques, including single-cell and spatial technologies, high-throughput DNA sequencing, and mass spectrometry, to analyze these models in detail.

Finally, we intent to assess the predictive power of our models by comparing their therapeutic responses to those observed in actual patients. This evaluation is crucial for validating the models as reliable tools for drug testing and personalized medicine.

We want to lead the charge in creating next-generation disease models that are set to transform therapeutic discovery and pave the way for more effective treatments tailored to individual patients.

In our relentless pursuit of breakthroughs in healthcare, the Novel Therapeutic Strategies research line is dedicated to discovering and validating cutting-edge treatments that hold the promise of transforming patient outcomes. By identifying new drug targets and developing innovative therapies, we aim to lead the way in precision medicine, offering hope to those facing the most challenging diseases.

Our primary objective is to identify novel drug targets and develop therapeutic approaches that can effectively intervene in disease processes. By pinpointing the genes, proteins, and pathways that are altered in diseased states, we open new avenues for targeted treatments that could revolutionize how we combat illness.

To achieve these ambitious goals, we harness the power of multi-omics technologies and advanced data science tools. By analyzing patient samples and organoid disease models, we can uncover the molecular and cellular changes that drive disease, revealing potential drug targets with unprecedented precision.

Our approach is deeply rooted in the use of advanced patient-derived in vitro disease models. These models serve as testbeds for evaluating the efficacy of drugs and molecular interventions aimed at the identified targets. By observing how these interventions influence the course of disease within these models, we can rapidly advance the development of promising therapies.

We go further by meticulously characterizing the responses of these disease models before and after treatment. This comprehensive profiling provides critical insights into the molecular and cellular shifts that occur, guiding the refinement of therapeutic strategies and the creation of predictive tools that can inform clinical decision-making.

We want shaping the future of medicine by developing novel therapeutic strategies that are as precise as they are powerful, bringing us closer to a world where every patient receives the treatment they need, exactly when they need it.
