Offer Description
The project is focused on developing new therapeutic targets for brain metastases, specifically focusing on tumor vasculature. In particular, this project—funded by the ERC StG—explores the active role of brain vasculature in the onset, development, and immunosuppression of brain metastases, with the aim of identifying key mechanisms that can be used to design new therapeutic interventions. The work will include the use of mouse models, cell culture, immunofluorescence techniques, flow cytometry, and multiomic approaches, among other methods. The goal is to advance our knowledge in the field of brain metastases and develop innovative strategies that improve patient survival and quality of life.
