After Prof. Demaria’s talk there is lunch ser ved in BioCity 1st floor lobby. There are seats for 150 first ones to regi ster and we hope many of you can make it.\n\nRegister here: https://link.w ebropolsurveys.com/S/A24F2F06197BBA30\n\n \;\n\nDr Demaria is an assoc iate professor in Cellular Ageing and his research is focused towards iden tifying novel mechanisms and biomarkers associated to senescent cells. His laboratory has also a strong interest to characterize the pro-disease fun ctions of senescent cells induced during aging and by anti-cancer therapie s. A major goal is to exploit these findings for the development of rejuve nating interventions. In 2018 he co-founded a start-up company\, Cleara Bi otech\, devoted to develop anti-senescence drugs.\n\n \;\n\nSelected p ublications\n\nThe senescence-associated secretory phenotype and its physi ological and pathological implications.
