Stem Cell Regulation and Mechanisms of Regeneration Genome Structure Ageing The Laboratory led by Research at the Laboratory of Victor Eugene Berezikov aims at Guryev is aimed at understanding Ageing Research at ERIBA Ageing is the major risk factor for many diseases, understanding molecular structural changes in human genomes for a including cancer, dementia and diabetes.

For the second time, ERIBA organised the Molecular Biology of Ageing Meeting Grants in Groningen, and once more we succeed to gather world-leading scientists working in the diverse research areas that are relevant for understanding the ERIBA scientists secured external funding, totalling 3,1 M Euro. These grants biology of ageing and more than 200 participants attended this event included a VIDI and Aspasia award to Judith Paridaen, from the ‘Nederlandse (www.bioageing.nl). The third edition will happen in the Fall of 2019. Organisatie voor Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek’, three grants from the Dutch Cancer Society to Cor Calkhoven and Marco Demaria, and a grant from the ERIBA’s scientists were also involved in numerous outreach activities in which Landsteiner Foundation for Blood Transfusion Research to Gerald de Haan. they aim to share their findings with society at large.
