Izpisua has managed to safely reverse the signs of ageing in mice using cellular rejuvenation therapy
Using cellular reprogramming, the team of researchers led by the UCAM Professor of Developmental Biology has managed to rejuvenate mice without generating tumours or any other health related problems. The study is published in the scientific journal Nature Aging
UCAM HiTech: Research and entrepreneurship
UCAM HiTech, located in the surroundings of the Los Jerónimos Campus and integrated into the National Network of High Technology Incubators, is a technological hub where entrepreneurship and research come together at the service of society. With 2,000 m2 of facilities, the 5.5-million-euro investment has been promoted and financed by the UCAM, and co-financed by FEDER funds, with the collaboration of the Incyde Foundation of the Spanish Chambers of Commerce.
Izpisua announces a breakthrough in metabolite treatment for muscle injuries that will revolutionise medicine
At an event at the COE (Spanish Olympic Committee), the UCAM professor of Developmental Biology explained that these substances, which are from the body itself, make it possible to reduce recovery time by half, increase and prolong the functionality of muscles, both in elite athletes and in the general public.
