Chulalongkorn College organized a world tutorial convention titled “Reducing-edge Nanotechnologies for Good Well being and Nicely-being” to current nanotechnology improvements as new alternate options for most cancers remedy. The convention was held from July 9 to 12, 2024, on the Music Corridor, Artwork and Tradition Constructing, Chulalongkorn College, and the Mandarin Lodge, Bangkok.
A serious drawback in most cancers remedy is the uncomfortable side effects from chemotherapy. The medical trade has been looking for most cancers remedies which are extremely efficient however with decrease uncomfortable side effects. Among the many present medical developments, moreover CAR-T cell remedy, the newest analysis entails treating most cancers utilizing focused nanotechnology mixed with photodynamic remedy. That is being studied underneath the “OXIGENATED” analysis venture, funded by the Horizon 2020 Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) Analysis and Innovation Workers Alternate (H 2020-MSCA-RISE). The analysis was introduced at this convention.
The OXIGENATED analysis venture is a examine on most cancers remedy utilizing nanoparticles to ship oxygen to most cancers cells and stimulate the killing of most cancers cells with photodynamic remedy. Asst. Prof. Dr. Chanchai Boonla, Division of Biochemistry, College of Medication, Chulalongkorn College, is the top of this venture, which acquired funding to conduct analysis from 2019-2024. The brand new remedy is a focused elimination of most cancers cells, which tremendously helps cut back the probabilities of uncomfortable side effects for sufferers through the course of. The H 2020-MSCA-RISE has additionally given funding to 2 extra analysis tasks, specifically the SUPRO-GEN, headed by Prof. Dr. Pithi Chanvorachote, Affiliate Dean for Analysis, College of Pharmaceutical Science, Chulalongkorn College, to be accomplished in 2026; and the THERABOT, a examine on an alternate remedy of utilizing micro organism to inhibit and get rid of most cancers cells, headed by Asst. Prof. Dr. Nattida Chotechuang, Division of Meals Expertise, College of Science, Chulalongkorn College, which is able to start in 2025,
The convention “Reducing-edge Nanotechnologies for Good Well being and Nicely-being” is a significant gathering of these concerned within the medical discipline, researchers, pharmacists, and scientists from world wide who particularly work on most cancers remedy. This serves as a place to begin for collaboration between universities, medical colleges, startups, and main private and non-private organizations. The opening ceremony of the convention happened on July 9, 2024, on the Music Corridor, Artwork and Tradition Constructing, Chulalongkorn College. Assoc. Prof. Dr. Chanchai Sittipunt, Dean of the College of Medication, Chulalongkorn College, and Director of King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital, gave a welcome speech, adopted by opening remarks from H.E. Mr. David Daly, Delegation of the European Union to Thailand, H.E. Mr. Felipe de la Morena Casado, the Spanish Ambassador to Thailand, with Asst. Prof. Dr. Sirinan Kulchat, Deputy Director of Program Administration Unit for Human Assets & Institutional Growth, Analysis and Innovation (PMU-B), and Dr. Sergio Moya, the coordinator of OXIGENATED.
Asst. Prof. Dr. Chanchai Boonla, Division of Biochemistry, College of Medication, Chulalongkorn College, head of the MSCA-RISE OXIGENATED venture, introduced at this convention, described the modern most cancers remedy as a know-how system for delivering most cancers medication and oxygen to focus on most cancers cells. It makes use of nano-protein carriers with hemoglobin as an oxygen service and a photosensitizer. When this nano-protein reaches the cancerous space and lightweight is utilized, the substance breaks down into free radicals that may get rid of most cancers, making most cancers remedy simpler. At present, it’s being examined in vitro and in mouse fashions, with plans for human trials within the close to future.
Moreover, this worldwide convention included the SPAIN-THAILAND INNOVATION FORUM on July 12, 2024, at Ballroom A, 1st ground, Mandarin Lodge Bangkok. This yr, the collaboration of analysis and growth, in addition to trade of information, know-how, and innovation between Thai and Spanish researchers and entrepreneurs expanded in direction of the event of Nano Medication underneath the theme “Harnessing the Potential of NANOTECHNOLOGY: FUTURE HEALTH, PERSONALIZED MEDICINE AND WELLBEING.” H.E. Mr. Felipe DE LA MORENA, Spanish Ambassador to Thailand, and Miss Suchada Thaensap, Secretary to the Minister of Increased Training, Science, Analysis and Innovation (MHESI), attended the opening of the discussion board.
Chulalongkorn College wish to thank each assist contributed to creating leaps and bounds within the growth of most cancers remedy innovation. Particular thanks go to the next companions:
- Middle for the Technological Growth and Innovation (CDTI), underneath the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities, Spain
- The Ministry of Increased Training, Science, Analysis and Innovation (MHESI) by the Program Administration Unit for Competitiveness (PMUC)
