The scientists at BSRC “Alexander Fleming” perform cutting-edge research, aiming to understand molecular mechanisms of complex biological processes in health and disease. We are also committed to contribute to innovation in medicine, by developing novel therapeutic and diagnostic methods, focusing on immunity and inflammation, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases. To keep our focus on top-notch research, we recruit at all levels with excellence as the sole criterion and we support our researchers by providing state-of-the science infrastructures and a pleasant working environment. FLEMING is a non-profit organization operating under the auspices of the Greek General Secretariat for Research & Technology and is supported by the Greek government and by national, European and international grants.
Highlights
Greece joins the European Research Infrastructure ELIXIR as a full Member. As an ELIXIR Member, the Greek Node of ELIXIR – coordinated by BSRC Fleming - and the Greek bioinformatics community is now able to fully integrate into ELIXIR activities and collaborate with other ELIXIR Nodes. Press release.
Gouzi et al in the Skoulakis lab revealed a novel mechanism of activity-dependent constrain on long term memory formation, apparently by mediated autoactivation of the Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Alk. [PubMed].
BSRC Fleming and the Medical School of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens will jointly organize the Graduate program in "Molecular Biomedicine: Mechanisms of Disease, Molecular and Cell Therapies, and Bio-innovation".
The Inauguration of the "Center for New Biotechnologies & Precision Medicine" was announced at a press conference held on 07.06.2018 at the University of Athens. Fleming is a key collaborating Institute in this initiative and partner of pMedGR, the Greek Research Infrastructure for Personalised Medicine, which forms the basis of the New Center.
