“Epigenetic regulation of genomic imprinting in neutral stem cells: link with tumor formation” will be presented on 20 January at 12:30h.

The researcher Sacri R. Ferrón will present at the Biomedical Institute of Valencia on 20 January 2016 her latest advances in research. This seminar has as a title “Epigenetic regulation of genomic imprinting in neutral stem cells: link with tumor formation” and will start at 12:30h.

Sacri R. Ferrón is “Ramón y Cajal” researcher in the department of Cellular Biology of the Universitat de València. She has been awarded with numerous prizes and grants and has publications in renowned research journals. In 2012 she was awarded with the seventh Young Researchers BIOGEN IDEC Foundation Prize for a job on neural stem cells published in the journal ‘Nature’. This prize recognised the labour of this Spanish young scientist in the area of immunology and Neurology and its publication in international renowned journals. The work by which this prize was given to her described a new molecule produced by the astrocytes that is crucial to safeguard the stem cells in the brain and that has significant implications in future therapies of replacement of neurodegenerative diseases.


Sacri R. Ferrón developed her predoctoral studies at the Universitat de València, where she specialised in the study of the adult cell stems of the brain.  Afterwards she studied four years at the University of Cambridge (United Kingdom) and came back to the Universitat de València, already as “Ramón y Cajal” researcher, where she set up her own laboratory.


This seminar will be carried out at the Biomedical Institute of Valencia, on the street C/ Jaime Roig, nº 11. This Institute is a centre of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) and develops activities that connect the biological knowledges with the latest advances in the health field. At the Biomedical Institute of Valencia (IBV) the environment is multidisciplinary, since the pathologies are studied from different complementary angles. For the last few years it has become a very important centre in the study of the pathophysiology of rare diseases. In 2015 the IBV has eleven research groups divided in two departments and one unit associated with the Príncipe Felipe Research Center.

The seminar “Epigenetic regulation of genomic imprinting in neutral stem cells: link with tumor formation” is included in a cycle of new conferences of 2016 and supposes the presence of the Universitat de València in such an important institution.
