Join us in the NIMBB Conference Room this Friday, May 16, 2025, at 2:00 p.m. for the culminating event of MBB 294: Ethics in Research. In this deliberative policy simulation entitled “The Genesis Project: Engineering the Future of Humanity,” we will tackle the challenges of science governance from the perspective of scientists, ethicists, religious leaders, human rights advocates, political leaders, and international bodies in a future where gene editing could reshape humanity.

This seminar will discuss the rationale and preclinical evidence supporting the combined inhibition of EGFR and Akt pathways as a targeted strategy to restore drug sensitivity in FGFR1-overexpressing NSCLC models. The dual inhibition approach has demonstrated superior efficacy compared to monotherapies and offers a promising direction for the development of next-generation combination treatments in precision oncology.

Join us on Friday, May 16 for the MBB 196 Undergraduate Seminar, to be held at the National Institute of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology (NIMBB), Room 105, at 1:00 PM. All are welcome to attend.

Join us this Friday, May 16, 2025, at 1:00 pm in NIMBB Room 105 to discuss MC1’s atypical compaction mechanisms and its interesting role in maintaining genome stability in extreme conditions.

See you then!

Join us this Friday, April 25, 2025, at 1:00 pm in NIMBB Room 105 for a discussion on novel therapeutic approaches for prostate cancer treatment with a focus on the synergy of endosomal recycling inhibitors (ERI) and enzalutamide. Gain valuable insights on how this combination may be translated into clinical practice.
See you then!

Join the MBB 196 Undergraduate Seminar to be held this Friday (March 28, 2025) to learn more about how the QS circuit of V. campbellii BB120 differs from canonical QS systems and why V. campbellii DS40M4’s QS circuit suggests the possibility of new regulators. The seminar will be held from 1 PM to 2 PM in Room 105, NIMBB, UP-Diliman. See you there!
