Education and innovation - vet students into technology companies
Gómez-Estrada, Laura; Pietra, L.; Zoli, C.; Soriano Martínez, A.; Karampelas, P.; Almeida, A. M.; Nunes, J.; Martínez Ardil, J. M.VET education is an effective and accessible way for students, to improve their employability and inclusion possibilities. It allows them to train technically in a short time to do a job and try to access the labor market. However, not even obtaining a qualification aimed at vocational training ensures access to the labor market or real possibilities of emancipation. The success of VET graduates in their first ...
Host immune genetic variations influence the risk of developing acute myeloid l...
Sánchez-Maldonado, J. M.; Campa, D.; Springer, J.; Badiola, J.; Niazi, Y.; Moñiz-Díez, A.; Hernández-Mohedo, F.; González-Sierra, P.; Ter Horst, R.The purpose of this study was to conduct a two-stage case control association study including 654 acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) patients and 3477 controls ascertained through the NuCLEAR consortium to evaluate the effect of 27 immune-related single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on AML risk. In a pooled analysis of cohort studies, we found that carriers of the IL13rs1295686A/A genotype had an increased risk of...
Polymorphisms in host immunity modulating genes and risk of invasive aspergillo...
Lupiañez, C. B.; Canet, L. M.; Carvalho, Agostinho Albérico Rodrigues de; Alcazar-Fuolie, L.; Springer, J.; Lacknerg, M.; Segura-Catena, J.; Comino, A.Recent studies suggest that immune-modulating single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) influence the risk of developing cancer-related infections. Here, we evaluated whether 36 SNPs within 14 immune-related genes are associated with the risk of Invasive Aspergillosis (IA) and whether genotyping of these variants might improve disease risk prediction. We conducted a case-control association study of 781 immunocomp...
