1. Superantigens in group A streptococcus : gene diversity and humoral immune response
Abstract : Group A streptococcus (GAS) is a strictly human pathogen that causes infections ranging from asymptomatic carriage to the highly lethal streptococcal toxic shock syndrome (STSS). GAS are classified according to the sequence of the variable 5’ end of the emm-gene that encodes the surface associated M-protein. READ MORE

2. Evolution of protein and non-coding RNA genes studied with comparative genomics
Abstract : The identification of protein and non-coding RNA (ncRNA) genes is one important step in the analysis of a genome. This thesis focuses on the identification and analysis of proteins and ncRNAs homologues by exploiting a variety of computational methods in order to reach conclusions as to their structure, function, evolution and regulation.

3. High-throughput screening using multicellular tumor spheroids to reveal and exploit tumor-specific vulnerabilities
Abstract : High-throughput drug screening (HTS) in live cells is often a vital part of the preclinical anticancer drug discovery process. So far, two-dimensional (2D) monolayer cell cultures have been the most prevalent model in HTS endeavors. However, 2D cell cultures often fail to recapitulate the complex microenvironments of in vivo tumors. READ MORE

5. Assessment of Novel Molecular Prognostic Markers in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
Abstract : The clinical course of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is highly heterogeneous, which has prompted the search for biomarkers that can predict prognosis in this disease. The IGHV gene mutation status and certain genomic aberrations have been identified as reliable prognostic markers of clinical outcome for this disorder. READ MORE
