All our congratulations go to Prof Christian Simon and Dr Genrich Tolstonog, who obtained a SINERGIA grant from the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF), together with their co-applicants and partners Profs Hatice Altug (EPFL), Sanjiv Luther (UNIL), Niklaus Schäfer (CHUV) and John Prior (CHUV) !
The Sinergia funding scheme promotes interdisciplinary collaboration of research groups that propose breakthrough research. In their innovative project, the group will tackle existing challenges to understanding the spatiotemporal biology of lymph node metastases for personalized minimally-invasive treatment strategies for head and neck cancers.
