SAVinci kaviareň: Keď liek na cukrovku nestačí

Why doesn't your doctor have a cure for what diabetes will do to you in 20 years? Blood sugar can be kept under control today, yet diabetes still causes serious complications over time, affecting the eyes, kidneys and nerves. Using cemtirestat, a potential drug for diabetic complications developed at the Centre of Experimental Medicine of the Slovak Academy of Sciences, the talk explains how such research works, why it takes years and millions of euros, and what still stands between the molecule and patients. Speaker: Ing. Marek Lepáček, PhD., one of its authors. In Slovak. Large hall of Kácečko (4th floor, OD Prior). Free entry.
