¿Qué es NEMESIS?
Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are currently the leading cause of death worldwide. In this project, we propose to study basic mechanisms underlying the development of cancer, cardiovascular diseases and diabetes, pathologies which together account for roughly 50% of total deaths in Chile. To do so, the RING group called “NEMESIS” (Network for Metabolic Stress Signaling), including 6 experienced and 6 more junior investigators was created. The 3 principal investigators (PIs) previously worked together (2002-2012) as part of the Center for Molecular Studies of the Cell (CEMC), which focused on studying cell signaling events. All associate investigators have worked previously with these PIs in the CEMC framework and contributed to an extraordinary number of publications (total 137/average ISI: 4.3) with notable areas of overlapping interest (joint publications 59) that are now the focus of this highly interdisciplinary RING.
