7th Biotechnocentre theme day – June 17, 2022

Researchers in biosciences and life chemistry met "face-to-face" for the Biotechnocentre's thematic day on "Exposome and Epigenetics: how does the environment play with our genes?" ". Renowned speakers declined the different facets of the exposome: physical or chemical exposure or exposure to different pathogens, stress, diet, social inequalities... They also highlighted the impact of the exposome on the environment and on our health, which can have different consequences depending on gender, age, genetic heritage and on its regulation by reversible epigenetic modifications.

Mariano Gago prize awarded to the collaboration between the group of Eva Jakab Toth and the University of Coimbra, Portugal

2022 is the year of the France-Portugal cooperation, organized by the French and Portuguese Ministries for Europe, Foreign Affairs and Culture.

This “France-Portugal 2022” season is an opportunity to highlight many events marking the cooperation between the two countries, including several in the field of Higher Education and Research.

In this context, the Ministry of Higher Education, Research and Innovation and the Academy of Sciences are pleased to propose a scientific prize which distinguishes existing cooperation between French and Portuguese teams, and to offer them an opportunity to deepen the cooperation in the years to come. The four prizes awarded in 2022 cover all scientific disciplines.

In this frame, the collaboration carried out for many years by Eva Jakab Toth with the University of Coimbra has been rewarded with the Mariano Gago Prize. This collaboration concerns the development of imaging agents based on metalloporphyrins for the detection of tissue redox states.

The official award ceremony helded at the Academy of Sciences on Tuesday, June 21, 2022.
