SCN-Mitacs Industry-based Internship – Mesintel Therapeutics

The internship project involves working with mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs), which play a key role in regenerative medicine due to their translational potential. I will be conducting experiments to find new ways to regulate and modify the functions of these cells, and analyzing high-throughput screening data to find novel therapeutic targets. Along the way, I will delve into the legal and commercial considerations of these new findings and help develop plans to turn these discoveries into real-world treatments. This hands-on experience will equip me with important skills needed for a future career in the regenerative medicine sector. I look forward to working with Mesintel Therapeutics to develop new medical treatments and technologies, enhancing their ability to combat a range of diseases where MSCs play a crucial role.
