Integrative Molecular Medicine (IMM) Online ISSN: 2056-6360 University College London Cancer Treatment Centers of America

Integrative Molecular Medicine (IMM) is a peer-reviewed, online open access journal dedicated to a new research discipline at the interface between clinical research and basic biology. We aim to publish articles that broadly enlighten the biomedicine research community by providing an insight on breakthrough discoveries in basic and clinical medicinal research, thereby lending a strong impetus to this important and rapidly developing field and helping to forge new links between clinicians and molecular biologists. Integrative Molecular Medicine highlights ongoing integrative basic and clinical biomedicines covering fields of biology and medicine.As such the following qualities are essential in any article published by the journal: scientific credibility and rigour, and coherence and clarity in the writing. Contributions do not need to be novel as confirmatory and replication studies will be considered, however the article must present new findings, which could include the reporting of negative findings.

IMM provides a new platform for all researchers, scientists, scholars, students to publish their research work and update the latest research information.Integrative Molecular Medicine publishes research articles as full-length research papers and short reports. In addition, the journal publishes editorials and review articles in innovative formats that target a broad and non-specialized audience.

Journal will accept article from the following topics are integrative medical fields including biochemistry, molecular and cell biology, biotechnology, genetics, physiology, endocrinology, signal transduction, cell proliferation, differentiation and development, stem cells and regenerative medicine apoptosis, gene expression, pathology, metabolic disease, genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics of disease, systems medicine, brain disease, cardiovascular biology, diabetes, obesity, osteoporosis, nutrition, pharmacology, toxicology, cancer biology and oncology, epidemiology, genetic medicine, and other medicine-related topics.

I graduated as an MD at Lviv State Medical University (Ukraine) in 1983 with a great passion to become a surgeon in oncology. Thinking that a PhD in experimental oncology would help to realize my dream, I obtained my doctorate at the Institute of Experimental Oncology, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine in 1987. A fellowship from the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) took me even further from clinical oncology and also from Ukraine. I arrived in London on the first wave of perestroika and began my post-doctoral training in Jim Woodgett's laboratory at the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research (UCL Branch). Subsequently, I worked in Mike Waterfield's laboratory at the same Institute studying signal transduction via the PI3 kinase pathway. In 1996, I started my own group at the Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research, focusing on the regulation of growth via the S6 kinase pathway. Since 2003, I have been a Professor in the Department of Biochemistry at UCL now renamed Structural and Molecular Biology, where I have an active research group working on signal transduction and cellular metabolism in health and disease. I have a strong research (113 papers in peer-reviewed journals, H-Index 52) and patent (10 world-wide patents) portfolio and run two drug discovery programs aimed at developing small molecule inhibitors, targeting ribosomal S6 kinase and Aurora A kinase.

Dr. Alvarez, a native of Argentina, joined CTCA in October 2014 to lead the companys global focus on cancer research.

International Masters Program Molecular Medicine …

Posted: October 20, 2016 at 1:44 am

"One thing that was really great about the program was the combination of theory in the morning and practical work in the afternoon. This helped me keep everything in perspective and I found it highly motivating. In the lab I also learned so much; not only a lot of new techniques, but also how to approach and tackle a scientific question, and how to go about designing an experiment to specifically answer the question. Of course I had some idea about this before I began the program, but the lab placements enabled me to really practice this at a professional level. In my thesis right now, for example, I have a great deal of flexibility over the work Im doing, but I also have the chance to consistently check back with my supervisor to discuss next steps and possible future experiments. This combination of working independently but with support is essential for me to mature on the scientific level. In all, it also gives me the feeling that I am a researcher and not just another student."

Cellular and Molecular Medicine Graduate Program

Posted: October 20, 2016 at 1:44 am

The Graduate Training Program in Cellular and Molecular Medicine prepares scientists for laboratory research at the cellular and molecular level with a direct impact on the understanding, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of human diseases. The Ph.D. graduates of the Program will have a rigorous training in scientific research and a thorough knowledge of human biology and human diseases.

The CMM program grew out of a need for training at the interface between medicine and the traditional basic science disciplines. Rapid progress in cellular and molecular biology has strongly impacted clinical medicine, offering insights on fundamental causes of many diseases. Now new discoveries in the laboratory can be applied rapidly to the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of disease. This has been made possible by emerging technology that allows scientists to identify genetic and molecular defects causing or predisposing to disease. The trainees in this program are working precisely at this interface between science and medicine where they will be able to contribute to the long term well being of society.

Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine supports state of the art research and animal facilities, all on the East Baltimore campus.

Seeing is believing: what does your DNA look like in3D?

Clue: its a bit more complicated than a bendy ladder. Over the past year, scientists working in the Computational Biology Research Group and the MRC Molecular Haematology Unit at the MRC WIMM have been collaborating with Goldsmiths University in London to produce CSynth: new interactive software which allows users to visualize DNA structures in three dimensions. The team took the technology to New Scientist Live in September this year, and wowed hundreds of people with this incredible new tool. In this blog post, Bryony Graham describes the science behind the technology, and how the team managed to explain some pretty complex genomics to thousands of people using some pieces of string, a few fluffy blood cells and a couple of touchscreens, all whilst working under a giant inflatable E. coli suspended from the ceiling. Of course.

Molecular medicine – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Posted: September 26, 2016 at 7:45 am

Molecular medicine is a broad field, where physical, chemical, biological and medical techniques are used to describe molecular structures and mechanisms, identify fundamental molecular and genetic errors of disease, and to develop molecular interventions to correct them. The molecular medicine perspective emphasizes cellular and molecular phenomena and interventions rather than the previous conceptual and observational focus on patients and their organs.[1]

In November 1949, with the seminal paper, "Sickle Cell Anemia, a Molecular Disease",[2] in Science magazine, Linus Pauling, Harvey Itano and their collaborators laid the groundwork for establishing the field of molecular medicine.[3] In 1956, Roger J. Williams wrote Biochemical Individuality,[4] a prescient book about genetics, prevention and treatment of disease on a molecular basis, and nutrition which is now variously referred to as individualized medicine[5] and orthomolecular medicine.[6] Another paper in Science by Pauling in 1968,[7] introduced and defined this view of molecular medicine that focuses on natural and nutritional substances used for treatment and prevention.

Published research and progress was slow until the 1970s' "biological revolution" that introduced many new techniques and commercial applications.[8]

Molecular medicine is a new scientific discipline in European universities. Combining contemporary medical studies with the field of biochemistry, it offers a bridge between the two subjects. At present only a handful of universities offer the course to undergraduates. With a degree in this discipline the graduate is able to pursue a career in medical sciences, scientific research, laboratory work and postgraduate medical degrees.

Core subjects are similar to biochemistry courses and typically include gene expression, research methods, proteins, cancer research, immunology, biotechnology and many more besides. In some universities molecular medicine is combined with another discipline such as chemistry, functioning as an additional study to enrich the undergraduate program.
