Dear all
We are happy to welcome you all to the CCBIO Junior Scientist Symposium, February 27, 2025. This seminar series offers a fantastic opportunity to connect and engage with fellow young scientists. We look forward to vibrant and insightful discussions, as always.
As the keynote speaker, CCBIO researcher Vandana Ardawatia will explore the benefit of introducing the ancient Indian traditional medicine, Ayurveda into modern cancer prevention and therapy in her talk, “Ancient Wisdom Meets Modern Oncology: The Indian traditional medicine Ayurveda in Cancer Prevention and Therapy”. Oda Fløtre will share her experiences from establishing organoid models from high-risk cervical cancer patients. Reidun Æsøy will explore how ctDNA-based Liquid Biopsy can be applied for monitoring pediatric cancer. Get a perspective on healthcare budgets when Grace Wezi Mzumara presents her findings of the costs of care for children with severe anemia in Malawi, Kenya, and Uganda. Following this, Nivedita Sinha will explore complexities of “Tooth Root Resorption,” discussing treatment outcomes, diagnostic challenges, and the innovative role of artificial intelligence in this field.
We hope to see you there for an enriching and inspiring experience!
