Genetics of Rare Diseases: Insights from Luxembourg and Seville with Prof. Carole Linster and Prof. Rafael Fernández-Chacón
Description
Join us as together with Prof. Carole Linster (LCSB) and Prof. Rafael Fernandez Chacon (IBIS) we explore rare metabolic diseases and the innovative research happening between Luxembourg and Seville. Carole and Rafael talk about their focus on rare diseases categorised under a disorder known as Batten disease or neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (NCLs). We also have a chance to compare different models employing mice and zebrafish.
Last but not least, one of the key takeaways of this episode is the importance of fundamental research - which is something we always love discussing.
