Second Global School of Translational Science


A Second São Paulo School of Translational Science (SPSTS) foi organizada em 2011 pelo AC Camargo Cancer Center, com a coordenação da professora Vilma Regina Martins e apoiada pela FAPESP. Um aumento na qualidade de vida oferecido pelo acesso a politicas públicas e privadas, maior educação e nutrição aumentaram drasticamente a expectativa de vida da população o que gera um encargo gera um aumento do encargo financeiro e pessoal em função de doenças relacionadas ao envelhecimento.

Entre estas doenças, o câncer a as doenças neurodegenerativas como a Doença de Alzheimer, de Parkinson a esclerose lateral amiotrófica são ainda incuráveis e é necessário incrementar a pesquisa científica nestas áreas para que ocorra uma melhora no seu tratamento e na qualidade de vidas dos pacientes.

O objetivo da Second São Paulo Advanced School in Translational Sciences foi oferecer um cenário de discussão de medicina molecular, de aspectos básicos a translacionais tanto em câncer quanto em doença neurodegenerativas. Esta atividade foi uma iniciativa conjunta do Instituto Nacional de Neurociências Translacionais (INN) e do Instituto Nacional de Ciência e Tecnologia em Oncogenômica) (NCITO).

A SPSTS recebeu no A.C. Camargo Cancer Center em São Paulo 124 estudantes que foram selecionados entre 280 inscritos. Desses 51 vieram de fora do país: 2 da África do Sul, 10 da Europa, 15 Canadá, 14 dos EUA, 1 México, 7 da Argentina, 1 Chile e 1 Uruguai.

Dos alunos brasileiros, 25 vieram do Rio de Janeiro, Minas Gerais, Bahia, Rio Grande do Sul, Ceará, Pernambuco, Paraná e Santa Catarina. Do Estado de São Paulo foram recebidos mais 25 alunos de diferentes Instituições na cidade de São Paulo (USP, Unifesp) e do interior do Estado (USP-Ribeirão Preto, Unesp-Botucatu, Unesp-Rio Claro). A Fundação Antônio Prudente foi representada com 24 alunos de pós-graduação
