Davis Joseph honored with the 2025 Ciechanover International Biology Award for the major discovery

The Sustainability through Science and Technology Summit 2025 (SIPS 2025), celebrating its 21st edition in Cebu, Philippines, from 17–20 November 2025, presented the 2025 Ciechanover International Biology Award to Davis Joseph. This prestigious honor recognizes his revolutionary discovery regarding cancer treatments that function independently of the organs in which the tumors develop.

Davis Joseph receiving the Ciechanover International Biology Award from Professor Aaron Ciechanover (2004 Nobel Laureate in Chemistry) at the SIPS 2025 Gala and Award Ceremony

Davis Joseph’s work has, for the first time, overturned two-century-old paradigms:

1. The Organ-Specific Paradigm: Traditionally, cancers have been treated based on the organs where they originate. Since cancer was first identified in the human body, a universal "pan-organ" denominator had never been proposed.

2. The Isolationist Paradigm: Cancer biochemistry has historically been studied in isolation—one pathway at a time—without accounting for the complex interactions between proteins and regulatory RNAs that characterize a living organism.

Davis Joseph during the SIPS 2025 Summit Plenary Presentation describing his major discovery linked to curing cancer independent of the organs they develop in

In this breakthrough work, Davis Joseph identified three universal cancer types based on the malfunction of specific proteins and regulatory RNAs:
- Type 1: Cells lacking a functional p14ARF or p53 gene.
- Type 2: Cells lacking a functional DINO lncRNA.
- Type 3: Cells exhibiting abnormally high MDM2 protein activity.

By developing a unified therapeutic theory, Joseph has identified novel targets for treating cancer regardless of the primary organ. This paves the way for a revolutionary, organ-agnostic approach to oncology.

Furthermore, Joseph has developed the first universal apoptosis network flowsheet, comprising approximately 100 pathways (80% activation and 20% inhibition). This was achieved through a critical analysis of 174 scientific publications, mapping the intricate interactions between proteins and regulatory RNAs.

Davis Joseph delivering his acceptance speech at the SIPS 2025 Gala and Award Ceremony

This discovery exemplifies Sustainable Medicine under the FLOGEN Sustainability Framework by fulfilling three key criteria:

1. Social Development: Enhancing human quality of life through better health outcomes.
2. Economic Development: Reducing medical costs by creating a unified treatment applicable to numerous cancers.
3. Environmental Protection: Minimizing the resources required to produce specialized medicines for different organ-specific cancers.

Joseph presented this major discovery for the first time as a plenary lecture at SIPS 2025 and published it in the SIPS 2025 proceedings. Subsequently, he published it with his coauthors—Kongoli, You, and Inufusa—in Nature Portfolio’s Cell Death Discovery, a Q1 journal with an Impact Factor of 7.0 (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41420-026-03066-2). The paper set a record with over 2,000 accesses within its first two weeks.

"When I read Davis’s papers, I thought he could receive the Nobel Prize by 35; but when I saw his presentation, I think he could receive it by 28," noted Professor Aaron Ciechanover, 2004 Nobel Laureate in Chemistry.

The Ciechanover International Biology Award, named in honor of Professor Ciechanover and given yearly since 2022, was personally presented to Davis Joseph by Professor Ciechanover himself during the SIPS 2025 Gala and Award Ceremony on November 19, 2025, at the Dusit Thani Mactan Cebu Resort in the Philippines.

A Prolific Research Trajectory: Three Discoveries in 1.5 Years

This oncology breakthrough marks Davis Joseph's third major discovery in just 18 months:

1. The Davis Joseph Principle (Neurobiology): The first discovery identified the fundamental neurobiological mechanism of 4E-BP2 protein deamidation. Joseph determined that axons—the cable-like structures of brain cells—are the primary site of deamidation in the brain. Described as "Nobel-worthy" by Dr. Harvey Alter and Dr. Gregg Semenza (2020 and 2019 Nobel Laureates), this work was published in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences (IJMS). (https://www.mdpi.com/1422-0067/25/22/12268). It achieved a world record for a single-author publication with approximately 15,000 accesses in one year and ranks in the top 5% (specifically the top 2.6%) of over 32 million research outputs tracked by Altmetric.
2. The Common Master Switch for Neurodegeneration: The second discovery addressed a historic gap in Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s research by identifying a common master switch. This mechanism offers a potential unified cure for various brain-related diseases despite their unique pathologies. Published in IJMS on April 27, 2025 (https://www.mdpi.com/1422-0067/26/9/4143), it has been accessed 12,000 times in less than a year, ranking in the top 10% (5.2%) of all research outputs worldwide. Both discoveries were covered by more than 1000 media outlets worldwide.

Davis Joseph, Director of Biochemistry at FLOGEN Technologies Inc. (Canada), presented a historic breakthrough at the 5th International Symposium on Frontiers in Molecular Science.

At just 23, Joseph discovered that axon-based deamidation of the 4E-BP2 protein is the key driver of neurodegeneration. This finding, known as Davis Joseph’s Principle, redefines how the brain regulates protein synthesis and unites the causes of Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and related diseases under a single mechanism.

His Unified Theory of Neurodegeneration shows that by restoring deamidation to normal values, multiple diseases long studied as separate can be cured with one approach.

Joseph’s two landmark publications in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences have set world records in readership and been covered by over 1,100 media outlets worldwide. Nobel Laureates have described his work as "Nobel Prize worthy."

Pharmaceutical applications targeting axon-specific deamidation are already underway, with potential to revolutionize medicine and create an industry valued at nearly $1 trillion.

Dr. Kongoli emphasized how AI and accelerated research make drug development faster, more sustainable, and more affordable, particularly for diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s.

He also addressed a pressing healthcare issue: medical errors and malpractice. In high-income countries, 1 in 10 patients is harmed during hospital care, and nearly 30% of these cases result in death, while only a fraction of victims ever receive justice. Dr. Kongoli argued that data science, technology, and structured sustainability frameworks are crucial to reducing harm and achieving true progress in healthcare.

FLOGEN’s take on the MDPI article on Davis Joseph Discovery is given below:

A Paradigm-Shifting Insight into Brain Degeneration Davis Joseph that reveals a newly identified mechanism triggering neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. The single-author paper explains how oxidative stress leads to the deamidation of the 4E-BP2 protein in axons — a process now linked directly to cognitive decline. This evolutionarily conserved mechanism offers a paradigm-shifting understanding of neurodegeneration and opens the door to more targeted therapies for millions affected worldwide.

A Discovery Rooted in Evolution and Cellular Precision Joseph’s research provides the first experimental validation that this damaging modification of the 4E-BP2 protein happens specifically in axons — the long projections of neurons responsible for transmitting signals — due to their proteasome-poor environment. This cellular-level insight helps explain how memory loss and neural damage begin and progress, offering a clearer biological roadmap to combat these devastating diseases.

Scientific Impact and Academic Excellence Joseph’s work has already garnered significant academic attention. A previous publication on related mechanisms received over 11,000 views within the first nine months of publication— a remarkable achievement compared to the average of ~631 views for Q1 journal articles. Many peer-reviewed studies receive fewer than 50 total accesses, underscoring the reach and relevance of his contributions.

SIPS 2025 Plenary Invitation In recognition of his ongoing contributions to science and sustainable medical innovation, Davis Joseph has been invited as a plenary speaker at SIPS 2025, the Sustainability through Science and Technology Summit.

A breakthrough that could save millions of lives

LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, May 9, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The 21st edition of Sustainability Through Science and Technology Summit 2025 (SIPS 2025), dedicated to Prof. Aaron Ciechanover, Nobel Laureate in Chemistry, to be held in Cebu, Philippines, from 17-20 November 2025, has confirmed the participation of Davis Joseph as an invited summit plenary lecturer for his recent ground-breaking discovery of the common master switch for numerous brain-related diseases.

Davis Joseph during the plenary presentation about his second groundbreaking discovery of a common master switch to cure Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and other brain-related diseases at the International Congress of Sustainable Innovations in Medicine 2025

Davis Joseph discovered something that could not be found in the entire scientific history of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s research: a common master switch that can potentially cure both these and other brain-related diseases with a single method, despite the unique characteristics of each disease. This was achieved by developing a unified theory, which establishes that the occurrence and progression of these neurodegenerative diseases can be controlled mainly by regulating the rates of axon-based 4E-BP2 protein deamidation, a chemical reaction that disrupts protein function, whose fundamental mechanism in the brain was recently discovered by Davis Joseph. Since the common characteristic of these diseases in aging patients is an excessive 4E-BP2 protein deamidation that causes protein overproduction and malfunction, lowering the common master switch to bring the deamidation rates to normal values, depending on the patients' characteristics, can cure these brain-related diseases.

Davis Joseph's Unified Theory of Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and other brain-related diseases

This breakthrough is significant because Parkinson’s disease, first described in 1817, Alzheimer’s disease, first described in 1906, and other neurodegenerative diseases have been studied separately in biochemistry and therapeutic drug development, and no causal link has ever been established between them. Davis Joseph discovered this link and made the dividing wall between these brain-related diseases disappear, making it possible to treat them by regulating a shared master switch.

Additionally, this breakthrough is crucial since it bridges for the first time four different research fields: the biochemical processes of deamidation, translational control, oxidative stress, and neurodegeneration through axon-based 4E-BP2 protein deamidation that serves as a common denominator for all of them.

Davis Joseph giving an Interview at the Paraguay-China Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Asunción, Paraguay, about his major second discovery of a common master switch to cure Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and other brain-related diseases

Furthermore, this discovery is an example of sustainable medicine as per FLOGEN Sustainability Framework because it fulfills the three criteria of sustainability: (1) Social Development since it improves the quality of human life (2) Economic Development, since it decreases the cost of medicine applicable to numerous diseases and (3) Environment Protection since it decreases the amount of resources that is needed to produce medicine.

Based on this newly developed Unified Theory and his critical review of the scientific literature, he also designed for the first time three biochemical flowsheets of (1) deamidation in living organisms, (2) protein synthesis initiation and translational control, and (3) 4E-BP2 deamidation as a control system of the four biochemical processes.

The discovery was published on April 27th, 2025, in the prestigious International Journal of Molecular Sciences (IJMS), a Q1 journal. The full paper given here https://www.mdpi.com/1422-0067/26/9/4143 has been accessed more than 1000 times in less than 7 days, a world record for a single-author scientific publication. It was also presented as a plenary lecture at the Congress of Modern Sustainable Medicine in Asuncion, Paraguay, on 30th April 2025.

This is Davis Joseph's second discovery in the last five months. The first discovery, known as Davis Joseph’s principle, was the fundamental neurobiological mechanism of 4E-BP2 protein deamidation, which determined that axons, a cable-like structure of brain cells, are the key factor of deamidation in the brain. This first discovery, described as Nobel Prize worthy by Dr. Harvey Alter and Dr. Gregg Semenza, 2020 and 2019 Nobel Laureates in Physiology and Medicine, respectively, was published on November 15, 2024, also in IJMS. The full paper ( https://www.mdpi.com/1422-0067/25/22/12268) has been accessed more than 8000 times in less than 6 months, another world record for a single-author scientific publication, and has been covered by more than 500 media outlets, including the Associated Press: https://apnews.com/press-release/ein-presswire-newsmatics/medical-research-b14b0c18105eac4f46e9e14b74f72cbc . For this discovery, Davis Joseph was awarded Semenza International Cell Engineering Award at the FLOGEN Stars Outreach/2024 Sustainability through Science and Technology Summit (SIPS 2024) held in Crete, Greece in October 2024. (https://www.flogen.org/?p=195&bio=2024_Davis_Joseph )

”Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases are two awful diseases, and Davis's work to try to combat them is extraordinary. I am proud to be his representative in the House of Commons”, says Anthony Housefather, Member of Parliament, Canada

At the RIO+AGRO 2025 conference in Rio de Janeiro, October 2025, Dr. Florian Kongoli, President of FLOGEN Stars Outreach and a renowned scientist in the field of sustainability, delivered the keynote lecture titled “The Revolutionary Role of Artificial Intelligence and Automation in Sustainable Agroeconomy.” Addressing an audience of experts and policymakers, he argued that artificial intelligence (AI) and automation—often viewed with suspicion as threats to employment or economic balance—are, in fact, powerful tools to positively transform global agriculture. According to Kongoli, these technologies enable the optimization of water, soil, and fertilizer use, the reduction of production costs, the increase of crop yields, and the improvement of human well-being by freeing people from repetitive tasks to focus on innovation and creativity.

To assess their true sustainability, Dr. Kongoli relies on his FLOGEN Sustainability Framework, a model he developed in 2015 based on three core criteria — economic development, environmental protection, and social progress — which must be fulfilled simultaneously, supported by three pillars: science and technology, governance and law, and civil society and industrial practice. This framework was officially adopted in 2024 as a constitutional law by the municipality of Nova Friburgo, Brazil, making it the first city in the world to legally require that every strategic or operational project be evaluated according to these sustainability criteria before approval.

Using historical and empirical evidence, including the example of the Green Revolution, Kongoli demonstrated that scientific and technological progress—particularly automation—has consistently allowed global food production to grow faster than the human population, disproving long-standing predictions of mass famine since Malthus. He concluded that the future of agriculture depends on the wise integration of AI as a tool capable of measuring, predicting, and optimizing every process, thus creating a sustainable, efficient, and human-centered agriculture built on knowledge, balance, and responsibility.

Keynote Lecture by Dr. Florian Kongoli, President of FLOGEN Stars Outreach, delivering a presentation to participants at the Rio+Agro, held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, October 2025.

Dr. Florian Kongoli, President of FLOGEN Stars Outreach and CEO of FLOGEN Technologies, was interviewed by journalist Mario Linhares at the Rio+Agro Podcast following his plenary lecture at Rio+Agro 2025, the major agro-industrial and sustainability event held at RioCentro, the largest exhibition center in Latin America.

In his discussion, Dr. Kongoli reflected on his long relationship with Rio de Janeiro — the city of his honorary citizenship — and praised the rapid growth of the Rio+Agro forum, now recognized as one of Latin America’s premier platforms for innovation in agriculture and sustainability.

During the interview, Dr. Kongoli highlighted the importance of integrating science and technology into sustainability, a principle he has championed for over two decades. He explained how his FLOGEN Sustainability Framework, first introduced in 2015 and later adopted as a municipal law in Nova Friburgo (Brazil), provides a universal model for evaluating whether any activity — industrial or agricultural — meets the three essential pillars of sustainability: environmental protection, economic development, and social progress.

He also discussed the key themes from his lecture, focusing on the revolutionary role of artificial intelligence and automation in agriculture, where technology can reduce environmental impact, increase productivity, and enhance quality of life when applied responsibly.

The conversation, recorded as part of the Rio+Agro Podcast series, celebrated Dr. Kongoli’s global leadership in promoting sustainability through science and technology. His ongoing commitment to bridging research, policy, and industry continues to inspire initiatives worldwide — from the SIPS Summits he organizes each year to his collaborations with governments, academia, and private enterprises.

A global model in sustainability legislation

Nova Friburgo, a city of just over 200,000 residents nestled in the mountains of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, has made history by becoming the first city in the world to officially adopt the FLOGEN Sustainability Framework as law. Located less than three hours from Rio de Janeiro, Nova Friburgo is now a global model of how local legislation can integrate world-class sustainability science.

The groundbreaking legislation was proposed by Councilman Professor Pierre and signed into law by Mayor Johnny Maycon. It is based on the FLOGEN Sustainability Framework developed by Dr. Florian Kongoli, a Canadian-American scientist and President of SIPS (the Sustainability through Science and Technology Summit). The framework was presented at the United Nations in Geneva in 2022.

The law clearly defines the three essential pillars of sustainability:

• Environmental Protection
• Social Development
• Economic Growth

And the key actors responsible for implementing them:

• Science and Technology
• Education and Civil Society
• Governance and Management

"These three criteria are equally important. If one of them is not upheld, then it is not sustainable," said Dr. Florian Kongoli.

"The players function like the legs of a table supporting the sustainability goals. If one leg is missing, the table collapses."

Why Nova Friburgo?

Nova Friburgo boasts the largest forest coverage in the Atlantic Forest biome, the most endangered of Brazil’s six biomes. With over 60% of its territory covered by forest, far exceeding the national average, the city has proven its long-standing commitment to environmental stewardship.

"Nova Friburgo is setting an example for other cities around the world," stated Councilman Pierre.

"We want to prove that it is possible to prosper while protecting the environment."

With a Human Development Index (HDI) of 0.745, one of the highest in Brazil, the city also maintains a strong industrial base. This balance of economic strength and environmental responsibility makes Nova Friburgo a perfect candidate to implement and exemplify the FLOGEN model.

"An active economy allows us to invest in education and public health," added Mayor Johnny Maycon.

"By adopting the FLOGEN Sustainability Framework, we ensure our future generations can maintain this balance."

International Recognition at SIPS 2024

The new law was officially presented during SIPS 2024, the world’s premier science-based sustainability summit, which brought together over 600 scientists from more than 60 countries, including 10 Nobel Laureates.

It was located at: Out of the Blue Resort in Crete, Greece and occurred on October 20th to October 24th, 2024.

WILMINGTON, DE, UNITED STATES, November 15, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Sustainability through Science and Technology Summit 2024 (SIPS 2024) in its 20th year edition, held in Crete, Greece from 20-24 October 2024, awarded the Semenza International Cell Engineering in Medicine Award to Davis Joseph, for a breakthrough discovery linked to the curing of Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and other neurodegenerative diseases.

Davis Joseph discovered something that could not be found for the last 17 years: the fundamental neurobiological mechanism of 4E-BP2 Protein deamidation. 4E-BP2 is a protein whose absence in the brain causes memory impairment while 4E-BP2 deamidation is a spontaneous reaction occurring in neurons that alters the protein synthesis in them. Any alteration that affects the optimum balance of protein production required for a healthy nervous system causes imbalances and, as a result, neurodegenerative disease. The discovery found that the axon, a cable-like structure found in neurons, is the key factor of the mechanism that causes 4E-BP2 deamidation due to its special characteristics. Davis validated his discovery experimentally in both the central and peripheral nervous system including the optic nerve, the sciatic nerve, the whole brain, the retinal ganglia, and the dorsal root ganglia of mice. During this work, he invented and developed new methods of dissecting the optic nerve, the retina, and the whole brain simultaneously as well as dissecting the sciatic nerve without relying on previous literature. These were the first-ever experiments in which the optic nerve, retina and sciatic nerve were dissected to detect 4E-BP2 deamidation. This discovery revolutionizes humanity's understanding of protein production in the human body and paves the way to developing effective treatments against neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson's, and many others.

During the work, Davis made another discovery related to the role of axon-induced oxidation in translational control proteins which paves the way for seminal research into oxidative stress-related drug development against neurodegeneration.

Davis presented this work at SIPS 2024 in the summit plenary session and his work was published as a single author in the FLOGEN Starts Outreach/SIPS 2024 publication and subsequently at the International Journal of Molecular Sciences, one of the world’s top journals in the fields of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (a Q1 Journal). The full paper is given here: https://www.mdpi.com/1422-0067/25/22/12268

"Davis' discoveries at such an early age are impressive and he will have a brilliant and successful career," says Dr. Gregg L. Semenza, MD, PhD, 2019 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, Professor of Genetic Medicine and Director, Vascular Program, Institute for Cell Engineering at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, USA

"Davis’ research discovery is superb. He will be a Nobel Prize Winner himself,” says Harvey J. Alter, M.D, 2020 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, Principal Investigator, National Institute of Health, USA

"Davis' work is excellent, says Dr. Frank Slack, Ph.D., Shields Warren Mallinckrodt Professor of Medical Research, Director, HMS Initiative for RNA Medicine, Director, Cancer Research Institute, Departments of Medicine, and Pathology, BIDMC Cancer Center, Harvard Medical School, USA

The award that bears the name and is in the honor of Prof. Gregg L. Semenza, 2019 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, was personally handed over to Davis, by Prof. Gregg L. Semenza himself during SIPS 2024 Gala and Award Ceremony on 22 October 2024 at Out of the Blue Resort, in Crete, Greece.

The summit is dedicated to achieving sustainability through science and technology and hosts numerous Nobel Laureates regularly.

FLOGEN sustainability Framework is an innovative concept that establishes 3 criteria to be achieved simultaneously to achieve Sustainability i.e. Environmental Protection, Social Development and Economic Growth sustained by three equally important pillars/actors i.e. Science and Technology, Governance and management and Education and Civil Society. The concept fixed the disfigured idea of sustainability and related confusion that existed in the literature and in the society (https://www.flogen.org/pdf/sips16_524FS.pdf). In September 2024, this framework became a constitutional law in the city of Nova Friburgo, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in an unanimously approved legislative decision, a first in the world in which a scientific concept is transformed into law that it will be used for the approval of all strategic and day to day projects in the city.

From their vibrant traditional attire to their intricate handicrafts and artwork, every aspect of their culture spoke volumes about their deep connection to the land and their ancestors.

During his visit, Dr. Florian Kongoli learned about the Embera Quera's traditional practices, including their hunting, fishing, and gathering methods. He was amazed by their deep knowledge of the natural world and their sustainable approach to living harmoniously with the environment.

One of the highlights of his visit was participating in a traditional dance ceremony. He was invited to join in the rhythmic movements and chants passed down through generations. He had a powerful and moving experience that left a lasting impression on him.

Overall, his visit to the Embera Quera indigenous community was a truly unforgettable experience. It reminded him of the importance of preserving and celebrating our world's rich cultural diversity. Dr. Florian Kongoli is grateful for the opportunity to connect with the Embera Quera people and looks forward to continuing to learn from and support their community in the future.

He visited Mount Juktas, situated in north-central Crete and known as Giouchtas in Greek, which held significant religious importance for the Minoan civilization. Adjacent to the palaces of Knossos and Fourni, as well as the megaron at Vathypetro, it served as a prominent peak sanctuary in the Minoan world. Besides its religious significance, Mount Juktas is renowned for its resemblance to the eternal, slumbering face of Zeus. The photos captured from the terrace of the Aquila Atlantis Hotel in Heraklion showcase the majestic beauty of Mount Juktas.

The Koules Fortress, also known as Castello a Mare, stands as an impressive symbol of historical significance at the entrance of the old port of Heraklion, Crete, Greece. Its origins trace back to the 8th century when the Emirate of Crete first fortified the site. It underwent several transformations throughout its history, including constructing a new tower during the second Byzantine era, which was later destroyed in 1303. However, the current fortress was erected in 1540 under the control of the Republic of Venice, which then governed Crete. Despite efforts to fortify it with cannons in 1630, the fortress ultimately fell to the Ottoman Empire in 1669. Although restored, the fortress remains a testament to its past, preserving the atmosphere and architecture of its capture in 1669.

WILMINGTON, DE, USA, April 14, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ - Dr Florian Kongoli delivered, upon invitation, an opening plenary lecture in the United Nations Headquarters in Geneva at the United Nations International Year of Glass 2022. He spoke about the sustainability framework and the role of science and technology at a time of energy crisis. He described science as a grand disruptor and a solution provider that has literally saved the world from precipices of history and is able to do so today also in the energy sector. Among others he considered an error of some European countries shutting down the nuclear reactors that produce clean electricity based only on the risk factor and the waste production. There is no technology without risk and without waste, he said, and it is the role of science and technology that can prevent the risk and process the waste sustainably. Shutting down all nuclear reactors while importing oil and gas from other countries is a short-sighted local solution that discounts the role of science and does not serve the global sustainable development. This conclusion was proven true in the war weeks later.

Dr. Florian Kongoli delivered the lecture at the opening ceremony of the United Nations Years of Glass 2022, held at the impressive Human Rights and Alliance of Civilization room in the United Nations Headquarters in Genava on 11 February 2022 and was viewed on live broadcasting by 4,211 persons from 72 Countries. Featuring 30 world-class speakers, the ceremony was officially opened by the Secretary General of United Nations António Guterres with welcome speeches of ambassadors/permanent representatives of Spain, Turkey, Egypt, and China and the chair Dr. Alicia Durán.

SIPS 2022 Social Events
A collection of the various social events that took place during SIPS 2022, in Phuket, Thailand

In this live broadcast, Dr. Florian Kongoli was joined by Dr. Shinichi Hori, an Interventional Oncologist and Chief Director of the Institute for Image Guided Therapy in Osaka, Japan, to present a revolutionary cancer treatment procedure called Transcatheter Arterial Chemoembolization (TACE).

This live broadcast, which was streamed globally on platforms including LinkedIn, YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter, showcased a minimally invasive technique that has the potential to save lives without the need for surgery or debilitating side effects. Dr. Hori, the developer of this innovative TACE procedure, has successfully performed the treatment on more than 1,200 patients per year.

The live broadcast, facilitated by Mario Linhares from Rio de Janeiro, provided a global platform for this groundbreaking medical advancement, offering hope to those who have been told their cancer cannot be treated.

Here is the link to the LIVE:

SAVING LIVES FROM CANCER WITHOUT SURGERY AND SIDE EFFECTS

Have you or anyone you know been told your cancer cannot be treated? If yes, you have to watch this live broadcast: there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

Dr. Florian Kongoli will be live with Dr. Shinichi Hori, from Osaka, Japan, bringing a revolutionary cancer treatment procedure this Tuesday 10:30 PM (New York time) - Wednesday at 11:30 AM (Japan time).

They will have the company of Mario Linhares, from Rio de Janeiro, live streaming simultaneously on LinkedIn, YouTube, Facebook and Twitter.

Dr. Hori is an Interventional Oncologist and Chief Director of Institute for Image Guided Therapy in Osaka, Japan and the developer of this revolutionary technique that he carries out in more than 1200 patients a year.

The technique is called _Transcatheter Arterial Chemoembolization_ or _TACE_, and is a minimally invasive procedure that was originally used to treat liver tumors. Now it Is widely applied to treat breast cancer, lung cancer, hepatic metastases, ovarian cancer, uterine fibroids, and other tumors.

Step-by-step of the process
- A catheter is inserted in the arterial system until it accesses the tumor.
- It delivers anti-cancer chemotherapy drugs directly to the cancerous tumor.
- It blocks (enbolizes) the blood vessel that feeds the tumor with blood and stop the artery from supplying nutrients to the tumor.
- This revolutionary technique decreases the dose of chemotherapy exposure to healthy parts of the body along with those terrible side effects and at the same time, maximizes the dose directed specifically at the tumor.

Industry and Commerce Chamber of Nancy

The industry and commerce chamber of Nancy is a beautiful example of the buildings built in this city before the first world war in the style of "art nouveau" (jugendStil in German). Other cities where this style was developed during the same period in time are Vienna, Brussels, and Barcelona. A nice account of this specific house can be found in Wikipedia:

https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chambre_de_commerce_et_d%27industrie_Grand_Nancy_M%C3%A9tropole_Meurthe-et-Moselle

At this moment, the house welcomes a special exhibition dedicated to the glasses, crystals and pieces of art related to the same period and which were produced in a glass factory that has now disappeared, but was a signature of the "art nouveau" style. The exhibition is organised by Francis d'Alascio, an academician of ALS. Live streamed videos of Dr. Kongolis visit to the Commerce Chamber can be seen below:
