Neurodegeneration and cancer are two of the greatest frontiers in modern medicine. They impose significant medical, financial and social burdens on sufferers, carers and the wider community. Novel technologies with the ability to help diagnosis, enlighten researchers to the biological principles governing the disease and that can make a contribution to prevention, quality of life issues and survival of sufferers are of utmost importance. This project aims to make a significant contribution to these areas using antisense technologies against some previously studied targets.

神经退行性变和癌症是现代医学的两大前沿领域。它们给患者、照顾者和广大社区带来了巨大的医疗、经济和社会负担。能够帮助诊断、启发研究人员了解该病的生物学原理并能对预防、生活质量问题和患者生存作出贡献的新技术是至关重要的。该项目旨在利用针对一些先前研究的靶点的反义技术为这些领域做出重大贡献。
