Antibody therapy, which uses antibodies to target and fight cancer and other diseases, is gaining approval in modern oncology for its ability to improve survival rates and quality of life for cancer patients. Prof. David Saliba will discuss his laboratory’s work on developing novel antibodies that precisely target cancer cells, a key advancement in oncology.These antibodies, developed using the Nobel Prize-winning Phage Display technique, offer greater specificity and affinity than traditional drugs, sparing healthy cells while attacking cancer cells. The team at the University of Malta, in collaboration with leading scientists from the Universities of Edinburgh, Gdansk, and Bari, is focused on speeding up the development of these promising treatments, particularly for lung cancer. Join Prof. Saliba’s talk on November 5th, 2024, at Spazju Kreattiv, Valletta, to learn more about these cutting-edge technologies. Stay updated via the Malta Café Scientifique
The event is supported by Spazju Kreattiv, the University of Malta, and the Malta Chamber of Scientists.
