En el marco del Día Internacional de la Mujer, la Fundación CRIS contra el cáncer ha lanzado un decálogo con medidas clave para combatir la brecha de género en la ciencia y garantizar la igualdad de oportunidades en la investigación.
We organized the EMBO Workshop Energy balance in metabolic diseases at Torremolinos (Spain).
The conference’s convened leading researchers to explore the complex mechanisms underlying metabolic disorders, with a particular emphasis on obesity, which affects over 17% of adults in Europe and significantly contributes to metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. The conference aimed to advance the understanding of metabolism and its implications for human health by adopting a holistic approach to address the multifaceted problem of metabolic syndrome. A key focus was on exploring the interactions among organs and their roles in metabolic dysfunction.
The workshop featured sessions on:
- Adipocyte Biology: Discussing advancements that reveal the diverse functions of adipose tissue beyond fat storage.
- Liver Metabolism and Nutrient Signaling: Exploring exciting discoveries in liver metabolism, nutrient signaling, exercise, and their impact on metabolic diseases.
- Mitochondrial Bioenergetics: Examining the role of mitochondrial bioenergetics in metabolic regulation, offering potential therapeutic opportunities.
- Heart Disease in Metabolic Dysfunction: Spotlighting heart disease within the context of metabolic dysfunction.
Through interdisciplinary collaboration, the conference aimed to provide a comprehensive understanding of metabolic disorders and identify innovative approaches to enhance their management.
