Diseased cells present pieces of proteins (epitopes) on their surface, allowing their recognition and elimination by the immune system. Many epitopes are generated by unknown mechanisms from membrane-proteins. Using chemical fluorescent reporters, Frans Bianchi will investigate how these are presented.
15 Veni grants for Radboud researchers: more information in this link.
Fifteen researchers from the Radboud University and Radboud university medical center have been awarded a Veni grant by NWO, the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research. These grants of up to €250,000 provide highly promising young scientists with the opportunity to further elaborate their own ideas during a period of three years.
