Congratulations to Prof. Fanny Oliveira Arcolino, Prof. Niek van Til, and the Cure Lowe Foundation on receiving not one, but three prestigious awards to advance a new gene therapy approach for Lowe syndrome: the UMD Catalyst Grant, Biotech Booster, and EQT.
We're happy to share a new milestone in metabolic research. Dr. Dewi van Harskamp, Assistant Professor at our center, studies in vivo metabolism using stable isotope approaches — a powerful technology that allows us to trace metabolites through the body and follow their metabolic pathways in real time.
