LABION will coordinate the NEVERMIND project! Starting from 1st January 2020, Dr. Marzia Bedoni will be the PI of a three-years project granted by FRRB to design and test innovative engineered nanovectors to target two brain disorders, Alzheimer's disease and Glioblastoma. Project Title.: New frontiers of engineered nanovectors to improve treatment efficacy...

This week, Labion was present at Nanomed Europe 19 in Braga, a unique conference co-organized by ETPN and INL (International Iberian Nanotechnnology Laboratory), with scientific lectures on Nanomedicine and sessions about translation to market of nanomedical products. During this event, Dr. Marzia Bedoni was elected as Chair of Clinical Translation and Social Impact...

Tomorrow, 12th June, LABION will be at Nanoinnovation2019!! Now at its forth edition, Nanoinnovation is an annual conference that brings together  leading experts in the field of nanotechnology and nanomedicine. This is a unique opportunity for the Italian scientific, industrial and commercial community to meet and discuss about future applications and perspectives of nanotechnologies, sharing knowledge, expectancies...

In the end of May, LABION had the pleasure to participate to the ICOB 2019 Meeting in St Andrews (UK). It was the 6th International Conference on Biophotonics, that brought together opinion leaders in the field to consider where the field is going and what opportunities there are to work together.  Dr. Cristiano Carlomagno has contributed...

Labion was present at the 1st Minisymposium of Extracellular Vesicles at CNR in Milano. It was a pleasure for us to attend this meeting and present our main projects during the session "Extracellular vesicles into the clinic". Marzia Bedoni has presented recent advancements of the biophotonics platforms for the detection of extracellular vesicles in neurological diseases...

Even this year, Labion had the pleasure to participate and present some of its main results during the great ISEV Annual Meeting held in Kyoto. Since 2015, Labion researchers are ISEV members and every year we can appreciate the knowledge sharing and great atmosphere of ISEV Meetings. In 2019 in Kyoto, Silvia Picciolini has presented recent...

LABION is excited to communicate that Dr. Cristiano Carlomagno has been granted by Ministero della Salute to work on a three-year project about Raman analysis of saliva as diagnostic platform for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS)! The project entitled "Towards a powerful tool for the stratification of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis patients: salivary biomarkers detection by...

Yesterday, February 5th, Dr. Silvia Picciolini defended her PhD thesis entitled "Detection and characterization of extracellular vesicles of neural origin as possible tool for diagnosis and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases". Silvia has completed her PhD program in Translational and Molecular Medicine under the supervision of Prof. Masserini (Univeristy of Milano Bicocca) and of Dr. Gramatica (founder and...

Since 2015, LABION has been working on the characterization by Raman spectroscopy of Extracellular Vesicles (EVs). EVs are nano-vesicles released by almost every cell of our body, during health and disease, and they are interesting vehicles of proteins, lipids and other bioactive  molecules that can be used in therapy (for example, regenerative rehabilitation of diseased...

LABION is looking for two undergraduated students in Biology/Biotechnology/Chemistry/Pharmacological Chemistry and Technologies or Physiscs interested in a master thesis project in the field of nanomedicine and biophtonics applied to neurological and cerebrovascular disorders. LABION is a multidisciplinary laboratory with multiple ongoing projects and othersin start-up in just a few months. Internships are inteded full-time over a period of around 1 year....
