Time
5.12.2024 at 12.00 - 13.00
Frontiers of Science
December 5th at 12:00
Onsite event
in Presidentti auditorium, BioCity
Prof. Bernhard Küster, Technical University of Munich, Germany
Cancer patient and drug proteome profiling enhance treatment recommendations in molecular tumor boards
Host: Otto Kauko (otto.kauko@utu.fi)
Coffee and sandwich at 11:45, first come first served!
Six PhD researchers and early-career postdocs are welcome to have a lunch and discuss with Prof. Küster after the seminar. This is a great possibility to learn hosting skills in a friendly environment and create connections for future. Everyone is welcome to join, BioCity Turku will offer the lunch.

Prof. Küster leads Proteomics and Bioanalytics group at the Technical University of Munich, which comprises an international research team with a focus on proteomics and chemical biology. Most of their research builds on the powerful combination of cell biology, chemistry, biochemistry, mass spectrometry and bioinformatics. The group develops novel analytical methods for quantitative proteome research notably for high throughput applications and the analysis of post translational protein modifications (PTMs). In their chemical biology efforts, they elucidate the ivity of drug-target interactions on a proteome-wide scale, investigate the cellular mechanisms by which drugs exert their function and identify mechanisms of cancer therapy resistance. In addition, the group investigates phosphoproteomic signaling events as biomarkers for patient stratification, as well as indicators of drug effectiveness and treatment response.
