GMIF BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH Head: Associate Prof. Hieu Tran-Van |
1. INTRODUCTION GMIF Biomedical Research was established in 2011 by Dr. Hieu Tran-Van. At the begining, GMIF was focusing on recombinant proteins for therapeutic and cosmetic applications with a great interest in human cytokin for cancer supportive treatment and dermalogical application. Currently, the group expands its research into nanobiotechnology using natural polymers for topical drug delivery and using magnetic beads for cell selection; quantum dots for cell labeling and tracking; molecular aspects of oral vaccine; toxoid vaccine; etc. Moreover, with the aim for early-career professional development, GMIF offers a series of soft skill training workshop including time management, scientific presentation and report, work environment communication, etc. Contact: Laboratory of Molecular Biotechnology (B19) University of Science, VNU-HCM 227 Nguyen Van Cu Str., Dist. 5, HCM City, 70000 Tel: (08) 62884499 or 73089899 (ext 5940) E-mail: gmif.biomed@gmail.com
