#PHOTOTHERAPORT combine locally light-emitting implants and light-controlled drugs to modulate neuronal activity locally and on-demand. Funded by @EU_Commissionphototheraport.orgJoined March 2025
👏👏Congratulations to the great talk recently given by Prof. Valērija Groma at the @RSUinfo International Research Conf. on Medical and Health Care Sciences: “Appearance and distribution of voltage-gated sodium channels in excitable and non-excitable cells of the human brain”.
This year, #PHOTOTHERAPORT 🔬 participated in #ShadowDay in Latvia. Shapla, a Ph.D. student at LIOS, shadowed Dimitrijs Punte and introduced him to the fundamentals of structural biology, crystallography, and PET degradation. A fantastic opportunity to explore new professions!🤝
A dynamic group of experts in neuroscience, bioengineering, and chemistry from 8 leading Research Institutions is working to create the next wave of light-driven therapies. 🔬✨ #PrecisionMedicine 💉 #Neuroscience 🧠
Who is behind #PHOTOTHERAPORT?🔬✨
A cutting-edge multidisciplinary team of neuroscientists, bioengineers, and chemists working to develop the next generation of light-driven therapies for the nervous system. Check next post to know them 👇

🎙️ #PHOTOTHERAPORT coordinator and #IBEC researcher Pau Gorostiza shared his experience as a grant recipient at an EIC Pathfinder Open workshop💡🚀
His participation provided insights on the writing process and key strategies to prepare successful proposals for the 2025 call🙌
What does #PHOTOTHERAPORT proposes?
💡 PhotoTheraPorts: Tiny implants that emit visible light inside the body.
💊Photoswitchable drugs: Activated only by specific wavelengths for targeted action.
This means precise neuromodulation with reduced systemic side effects.
📢💡 What if we could treat neuropathic pain & epilepsy with light?
In #PHOTOTHERAPORT, we’re developing light-emitting implants & light-controlled drugs for precise, side-effect-free treatments!

🧠 For #BrainAwarenessWeek we’re excited to present the #PHOTOTHERAPORT EU project!
🇪🇺 8 leading research institutions in Europe are collaborating to develop light-controlled drugs that modulate neuronal activity locally & on-demand without systemic side effects! 💡🔬
