From
February 3rd to 7th I was in Porto to join a training
school on oligonucleotide therapy development organized by COST action DARTER
(Delivery of antisense RNA therapeutics, CA17103). The training school
comprised all topics that are needed to be able to design antisense therapies,
to test these properly (in cell culture and model organisms) and to set up
clinical trials. In special academia/industry sessions we learned about collaborations,
perspectives in industry and transitions between academia and industry.
On Thursday
evening, we enjoyed a nice networking dinner with Port wine and typical Portuguese
food like Bacalhau (dried codfish).
All in
all, the training school was very well organized and I learned a lot about the
development of antisense therapies.
