TINs Webinar: In Vitro Systems of Human Disease

This special two-part seminar delves into innovative approaches to treatment, highlighting the value of in vitro models in advancing healthcare. Part 1: Dr Lucy Granat from the Alzheimer's Research UK UCL Drug Discovery Institute will discuss their use of in vitro models in understanding neurodegenerative diseases. This includes validating new drug targets and developing new treatments, ultimately aiming to accelerate progress in tackling these challenging conditions. Part 2: Dr Mattia Gerli, from the Division of Surgery and Interventional Science, will present recent research on generating primary organoid models using amniotic and tracheal fluids. This holds immense potential for personalised regenerative medicine tailored to the foetus. This is part of the webinar series by the UCL Therapeutic Innovation Networks (TINs) to highlight UCL’s Research Infrastructure and Capabilities that enable effective translation of products toward patient/public benefit. The series aims to encoura
