In collaboration with Iskra Medical we evaluated specific MAE electrodes for use in gene electrotransfer of plasmid DNA to skin. The results were published in The journal of membrane biology and presented at national and international scientific meetings.
F.34 Consultancy
COBISS.SI-ID: 1993083The researchers involved in the project are also very active supervisors for under and post graduate students. Prof. Maja Čemažar was a supervisor of PhD thesis of young researcher Nataša Tešić. In 2015, Nataša Tešić successfully defended her PhD thesis entitled Preparation and validation of therapeutic plasmids without gene for antibiotic resistance and with tissue specific promoters for cancer gene therapy. Prof. Maja Čemažar was a supervisor of PhD thesis of young researcher Andreja Brožič. In 2016, Andreja Brožič successfully defended her PhD thesis entitled Clonality and antigenic characteristics of reactive and neoplastic lymphocytic proliferations. Prof. Gregor Serša was a supervisor of PhD thesis of young researcher Maša Bošnjak. In 2015, Maša Bošnjak successfully defended her PhD thesis entitled Antitumor and antiangiogenic effect of gene therapy with plasmid AMEP in murine melanoma model.

C.04 Editorial board of an international magazine
COBISS.SI-ID: 32649472Prof. Čemažar and prof. Serša with other collaborators wrote a chapter on electroporation and its use for electrochemotherapy and gene therapy as part of the international book Electromagnetic fields in biology and medicine which provides state-of-the-art knowledge on biological and therapeutic effects of electromagnetic fields.
D.06 Final report on a foreign/international project
COBISS.SI-ID: 11007316The researchers involved in the project group participated as interviewees in a popular scientific show aimed at popularization of science broadcasted on TV Slovenia. The theme of the show Ugriznimo znanost was Cooking and healing with electroporation (participating researchers: prof. Gregor Serša, prof. Damijan Miklavčič, doc. dr. Bor Kos) .
