Descrizione generale:

The NO-CANCER-NET (Advancing Nitric Oxide Based Therapeutics for Triple Negative Breast Cancer Training Network) consortium aims to set a landmark in the present European Higher Education Area. We are proposing a training initiative on how to take a molecular epidemiological informed approach for identification of a molecular target, development of companion diagnostics and a panel of novel therapeutic approaches, to address an unmet medical need. The NO-CANCER-NET Doctoral Network (DN) addresses two fundamental gaps in European training: 1) a training network where a core of Doctoral Candidates (DCs) can share a basic understanding of molecular target discovery, models of tumour biology assessment, drug synthesis and delivery, developing diagnostics, handling complex spatial imaging and omics expression data profiles; and 2) offer them solid interdisciplinary training in experimental, computational and clinical research. NO-CANCER-NET will equip our DCs to understand the complexities of bench to bedside cancer research, the importance of an interdisciplinary approach and an understanding of the fundamentals of related disciplines. This will be of great importance in preparing DCs to work between academia, industry and in clinical healthcare providers. To achieve this the individual DC projects and Work packages (WPs) will be integrated and have interdependency. A strength of the consortium is its foundation in an existing International Society for Nitric Oxide and Cancer (www.isnoc.org), covering academic, clinical, and industrial sectors from 7 countries.
