Team 4 is happy to welcome Salomé Ruiz-Demoulin and Irène Pezzati that start their thesis in the #TeamDigestiveSMC. Salomé thesis project will addres ENS-smooth muscle interaction under the supervision of Sandrine Faure. Irène thesis project will focus on the CPPs targeting GISTs under the supervision of Prisca Boisguerin and Sebastien Deshayes.
Team 4 is happy to participate to the Run’In Science event organized by Genopolys (https://www.genopolys.fr/la-runin-science)

Project leader: Eric VIVES Cellular transfection of mRNA by a peptide for the development of alternative tools in cancer immunotherapy Messenger RNA (mRNA) transfection has undergone spectacular development by becoming a effective vaccine strategy against COVID-19. Efficient mRNA transfection thus encourages therapeutic perspectives in the field of immunotherapy in oncology. However, mRNAs remain fragile molecules unable to enter cells. Currently, lipid complex cocktails are exclusively used to ensure cellular internalization of mRNAs. Recently, we showed that a short peptide
