„Meilenstein in Bekämpfung des Klimawandels“, DNA-Veränderungen durch E-Zigaretten, Speichern von überschüssigem Strom und Krankheitsverläufe von der Wiege bis zur Bahre - Life Sciences Research Awards Austria 2024 vergeben   Wien, 18. September 2024 – Für ihre international herausragenden Arbeiten sind am Dienstag in Graz fünf junge Wissenschaftlerinnen und Wissenschaftler ausgezeichnet worden: Die Life Sciences Research Awards Austria 2024 der Österreichischen Gesellschaft für Molekulare Biowissenschaften und Biotechnologie (ÖGMBT) gingen an Chiara Herzog von der Universität Innsbruck, Cathrine Hellerschmied (IFA Tulln) und Elma Dervic (MedUni Wien). Die Life Sciences PHD Awards Austria 2024 gingen an Francis Belén Pacheco Fiallos (IMP) und Michael Baumschabl (BOKU). In der Kategorie Grundlagenforschung ging der Life Science Research Award 2024 an Chiara Herzog von der Universität Innsbruck (EUTOPS).   Zigaretten und E-Zigaretten verursachen DNA-Veränderungen Zigarettenrauchen und E-Zigarettenkonsum induzieren gemeinsame DNA-Methylierungsveränderungen, die mit der Krebsentstehung verbunden sind. Das ist das Ergebnis der Forschungsarbeit von Herzog. Der Konsum ruft…
