With competencies in gene editing, microphysiological systems, bioimaging, and tissue engineering, LNBio works to discover molecular targets and develop innovative therapies for various illnesses that are of public importance.<\/p>\n

    This broad approach, which includes molecules and living organisms, unravels molecular mechanisms to identify bioactive compounds that are essential to developing new active pharmaceutical ingredients. LNBio concentrates its efforts on demands from the public health system, using state-of-the-art infrastructure and a matrix work model to promote innovation and development at the crossroads between science and health.<\/p>\n

    To integrate health with socioeconomic and environmental factors, LNBio serves as a scientific platform that is available to the government, able to develop advanced technologies that respond to strategic issues. LNBio is part of the Brazilian Center for Research in Energy and Materials (CNPEM) in Campinas, S\u00e3o Paulo, a private, non-profit organization overseen by the Ministry of Science, Technology, and Innovation (MCTI).[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” el_id=”diretoria”][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=”LNBio director” font_container=”tag:h2|text_align:left|color:%230c0c0c” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=””][vc_separator color=”custom” align=”align_left” border_width=”5″ el_width=”20″ css_animation=”slideInLeft” accent_color=”#02735f”][vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n
