MOLECULAR BIOLOGY OF PREVALENT DISEASES CTS981

Description

The Molecular Biology of Prevalent Diseases CTS 981 research group is a multidisciplinary group composed of basic and clinical researchers whose objective is the study of prevalent diseases in the context of biomedical research. It has a scientific production of 311 articles in indexed international journals, 258 conference communications and has participated in 58 projects, mainly in national calls. The main lines of research range from the study of the metagenome, metabolome and transcriptome epigenome of diabetes and obesity in both adults and children, breast cancer, surgery for pancreatic and liver cancer, to the study of the molecular mechanisms responsible. of the pathophysiology of metabolism.
