The main area of research in László Fésüs’s lab is the molecular characterization of cell uptake by professional phagocytes, primarily macrophages or dendritic cells. Phagocytosis is a highly complex and redundant process that is influenced by the treatment of phagocytes and the cell types engulfed that may have different origin. The lab focuses on the phagocytosis of cells dying by different types of programmed cell deaths such as apoptosis, autophagy or necroptosis. | The main area of research in László Fésüs’s lab is the molecular characterization of cell uptake by professional phagocytes, primarily macrophages or dendritic cells.

Revision as of 15:19, 17 September 2011
Building a iGEM Synthetic Biology team and performing the experiments of the project needs substantial support. Besides having the infrastructure provided by the University of Debrecen Medical and Health Science Centre, Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (MHSC-BMBI), our team was supported by outstanding sponsors. The University and the Department supported our work in several ways, and details will be given below.
Platinum Level
Oil Sands Leadership Initiative The Oil Sands Leadership Initiative (OSLI) is a collaborative network between ConocoPhillips Canada, Nexen Inc., Statoil Canada, Suncor Energy Inc. and Total E&P Canada. OSLI's vision is to achieve world-class environmental, social and economic performance in developing this world-scale oil sands resource. Their mission is to lead the oil sands industry in the responsible development of Alberta's bitumen resource by taking action to improve the environmental, social and economic performance of Alberta's oil sands. Oils sands initiative is encouraging the development of new ideas and is one of the sponsors of iGEM. You can read more about these new ideas LINK!!
Our team received substantial funding for the second time from Oil sands Initiative. This funds were mainly used for purchasing reagents and laboratory tools. We also received samples last year for testing in our newly developped SynBio test systems.
