International webinar on “Exosome Biomarker – Integrating Machine Learning and Biosensing”

Centre of Molecular Medicines and Diagnostics (COMManD), Department of Biochemistry has organized an international webinar on 05.1.2023 entitled “Exosome Biomarker – Integrating Machine Learning and Biosensing”. The lecture was delivered by Dr. Abhimanyu Thakur, M.Pharm, Ph.D. Postdoctoral Fellow, Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering, Ben May Department for Cancer Research, University of Chicago, Illinois, USA. 68 active participants attended the Webinar including under-graduate, post-graduate, research scholars and faculties as well attended the webinar. The webinar was very much useful and gave a better understanding on Exosome biomarkers and biosensing. He started his speech by explaining various neurodegenerative diseases and cancer conditions. He gave a brief explanation on different hallmarks of cancer and tumor micro environment. He explained on various exosomes involved in gliomas pathology. Next, he explained various biosensing methods in tracking the exosomes in gliomas. He explained the working of LSPR with a schematic representation. His webinar gave an idea on the importance of exosomes in liquid biopsy and development of potential diagnostic methods to keep track on disease progression. All the participants interacted with the speaker enthusiastically and got their doubts clarified.
