28 Apr Welcome to a UBI House breakfast & seminar at Tvistevägen 48, in conference room “Skogen”. UBI offers breakfast from 8.15, and the seminar starts at 8.30. Speaker: Christian Hedberg. Seminar: Targeting Cryptosporidium: From Biology to Breakthrough About: Cryptosporidiosis is a common and economically significant parasitic disease in livestock, particularly affecting newborn ruminants such as calves and lambs. The infection causes severe diarrhea, reduced growth, and long-term productivity losses, representing a major challenge for animal health and agriculture worldwide. Professor Christian Hedberg at Umeå University is developing a new drug approach that targets a key metabolic pathway in the parasite Cryptosporidium. In this seminar, he will describe the journey from early academic research to the current stage of development and commercialization (the CryptoSafe project receives business development support from Umeå Biotech Incubator). Registration deadline: Thursday, April 23 (you can sign up after this, but not for breakfast). (Photo credit: Mattias Pettersson/Umeå university).
