Nanomedicine in treating neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s

05 April 2018

The European research project B-SMART has released a short animated clip illustrating the project’s innovative approach and the importance of nanomedicine in treating neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s. So far incurable, neurodegenerative diseases affect over 7 million people in Europe already – a number which is expected to grow rapidly as the population ages. 
The multinational research endeavour B-SMART, which is funded under the EU Framework Programme for Research and Innovation Horizon 2020, aims to discover new ways to treat neurodegenerative diseases through nanotechnological RNA delivery systems targeting the direct cause of the disease instead of its symptoms. In order to achieve these ambitious goals, 9 partners from academia and industry across different European countries have pooled their resources and expertise.

Within this ambitious project, the Process Development Group of the Italian Biochemical Institute G. Lorenzini, with consolidated experience in aseptic dosage and in the study of the production processes of injectable organic medicinal products, is strongly motivated to provide innovative solutions for the industrial scaling-up of the production process, in order to meet the cGMP quality standards and the requirements of the regulatory authorities.

The clip is available on the B-SMART website and on YouTube.
