Seven researchers have been awarded the 2023 OWSD-Elsevier Foundation Award for Early-Career Women Scientists in the Developing World for their contributions to research that is helping meet the challenge of food security and advancing the UN Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 2, Zero Hunger, which focuses on agricultural productivity and sustainable food production. The winners’ research explores a wide range of ways that food insecurity can be tackled, from crop disease resilience to improved child nutrition, and indigenous plant use to increase productivity. The prize also acknowledges the scientists’ commitment to leadership, mentoring and engagement within their communities, including the use of innovative technologies in their research. Jennifer Thomson, President of the Organization for Women in Science for the Developing World (OWSD) said “Wouldn’t it be amazing if we could achieve SDG2, Zero Hunger? Our amazing awardees for 2023 are trying to do their bit to bring this about – and what a ‘bit’ that is! Just read about the research they are doing in their regions of the developing world and I am sure you will be as impressed as I was when we selected them as the winners. We wish them every success in their endeavors.” This year’s winners are: Renuka Attanayake, of the University of Kelaniya, Sri Lanka: plant and molecular biology; crop disease identification and management Carla Fabiana Crespo Melgar, of the Universidad Mayor de San Andres, Bolivia: biotechnology and microbiology; increasing agricultural productivity Haneen Dwaib, of the Palestine Ahliya University, Palestine: nutrition and dietetics; obesity and dietary interventions Eugenie Kayitesi, of the University of Pretoria, South Africa: food science and technology; improved use of indigenous plant-based foods Gabriela Montenegro-Bethancourt, of the Maya Health Alliance, Guatemala: life sciences and nutrition; maternal mortality and child malnutrition Munkhjargal Tserendorj, of the Mongolian University of Life Sciences, Mongolia: veterinary medicine, animal and food hygiene; diagnosis and treatment of animal diseases Yeyinou Laura Estelle Loko, Université Nationale des Sciences, Technologies, Ingénierie et Mathématiques, Benin: entomology, plant genetic resources and crop protection; insect pests and resistant crops “With these awards, our vision is to celebrate these impressive women scientists who are helping to make real progress towards the UN SDGs,” explained Ylann Schemm, Executive Director of the Elsevier Foundation. “We know that a quarter of all women are engaged in agriculture, which makes them more vulnerable to both climate change and resource scarcity.

Comcast Plans Major Network Expansion in Texas

Comcast Houston

Comcast announced today it will significantly expand its next-generation network, the Xfinity 10G Network, in a major way across several southeast Texas counties in 2023. The media and technology company said it will invest more than $100 million to install at least one thousand miles of new fiber-rich highways that will reach up to 80,000 homes and businesses by the end of this year. The planned expansions add to Comcast’s ongoing $2.8 billion investment in Texas over the last three years. Network expansion efforts will begin in Kingwood, Pinehurst, Prairie View, Waller, New Caney and Conroe. Construction will continue in other communities that have ongoing network infrastructure builds in the Houston area. Construction has started in Kingwood, which will be the largest expansion of the year; it is expected to be complete by the end of 2023 and will reach nearly 24,000 Kingwood homes and businesses. These locations will have the foundational next-generation network in place to begin deploying DOCSIS 4.0, setting the stage for the introduction of new symmetrical multi-gigabit Internet options. “We will bring our fiber-rich network to twice the number of homes and businesses this year compared to the number we passed last year,” said Ralph Martinez, Senior Regional Vice President of Comcast’s Texas Region. “Southeast Texas’ rural and suburban communities have been growing fast, and we are building out our next-generation Comcast network in tandem with the growth. We will continue to expand to even more rural communities in the next few years.” Once complete, Comcast, the nation’s largest provider of 1.2 Gigabit per second speeds, will give consumers access to reliable and fast Xfinity Internet and Xfinity Mobile service that outperforms its competitors. Comcast engineers have also developed multiple artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies that make the network faster and more reliable while delivering up to 100 Gbps for Comcast Business customers. In addition, Comcast’s next-generation technology provides multiple layers of security that automatically detect and block hundreds of thousands of cyber events every second, and a Smart Network that automates many core network functions and dramatically reduces the number of outages. “Access to reliable internet and telecommunications services is something that we cannot go without in our day-to-day activities,” said Houston Mayor Pro-Tem and Kingwood resident, Dave Martin. “Comcast and their new construction project in Kingwood is a perfect example of a business working to bridge the gap to connect more people to much-needed services while increasing accessibility to much-needed services and their dependability. I appreciate Comcast’s partnership and commitment to District E.” Comcast is also committed to addressing digital equity in communities we serve, through Project UP, the company’s $1 billion dollar commitment to help tens of millions of people connect to the internet and build futures of unlimited possibilities. Last year, Comcast Texas invested more than one million dollars to help local community organizations provide personalized digital skills training, offer workforce development/readiness workshops and other tech education to students, adults, and people with disabilities. The funding also supports ongoing efforts to build awareness about connectivity programs like Internet Essentials and the federal government’s Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP), which offers eligible households up to $30/month credit, or up to $75 for households on tribal lands, for home Internet. Comcast proudly participates in the Affordable Connectivity Program, and offers Internet Essentials Plus, a $29.95/month home Internet service that is effectively free for eligible households, once the ACP credit is applied. Interested customers can visit Xfinity.com/ACP or call 1-800-Xfinity to learn more about this program and find out if they qualify.

Kadimastem Submits IND Application to the FDA for its Phase IIa Clinical Trial with AstroRx® for the Treatment of ALS

Kadimastem Ltd.

Kadimastem Ltd. (TASE: KDST), a well-known biotech company in the field of cellular therapy, which is in the clinical development stages of innovative products for the treatment of ALS and potential cure for diabetes, has submitted an Investigational New Drug (IND) application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for an approval for a multi-site phase IIa clinical trial to test its lead neurological cell therapy product, AstroRx ® for the treatment of patients with ALS. Pending the FDA approval of the IND submission, the planned multi-site phase IIa clinical trial intends to examine for the first time the repeated administration of AstroRx® every 3 months in order to prolong the therapeutic effect observed in the first in human phase I/IIa clinical trial conducted by the company in Israel at Ein Kerem Hadassah Hospital from 2018-2020. AstroRx® was injected into the spinal cord fluid using a single standard lumbar puncture procedure, in which they demonstrated a good safety profile and clinically meaningful decline in the disease progression during the first 3-month follow-up period. The results of the clinical trial were published in February of 2023 in the prestigious scientific Journal of Translational Medicine. AstroRx® contains functional, healthy astrocytes (nervous system supporting cells) derived from human Embryonic Stem Cells (hESC) that aim to protect diseased motor neurons through several mechanisms of action. The goal is to nourish and support the malfunctioning motor neurons in the brain and spinal cord of patients suffering from Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), in order to slow the progression of the disease, improve quality of life and extend life expectancy for these patients. Kadimastem Founder and Chief Scientific Officer Professor Michel Revel said, “The submission of an IND to the FDA is a major milestone. It is very exciting to have arrived at this juncture. We eagerly await the approval to start this trial and wanting to help ALS patients as soon as possible.” Kadimastem CEO Asaf Shiloni said, “I’d like to congratulate our scientific team on the extremely important IND submission to the FDA. I would like to thank our VP of R&D Dr. Michal Izrael, our Regulatory Affairs Manager Dr. Vered Morad, our Director of Clinical Affairs Dr. Guy Slutsky, for their special effort and quality submission to the FDA. It is an enormous undertaking which brings great hope for the future. In 2022 we were awarded multiple patents worldwide, including from the United States Patent and Trademark Office, Japanese and Israeli patent offices for our cell therapy technology for treating ALS and other neurodegenerative diseases, as well as patents based on our cell therapy for diabetes. In addition, we have been engaging in very high-level discussions with various potential partners to advance both our ALS and diabetes programs.” Kadimastem Executive Chairman of the Board Ronen Twito said, “For the last year, we’ve reported our plans to submit an IND to the FDA with AstroRx ® for the treatment of ALS. The Submission of the IND marks a significant milestone for the company, and subject to the approval of the FDA we hope to commence this very important multi-site trial and to bring this potential life enhancing therapy to the market and to patients as soon as possible. In addition, we are moving forward with our plans to list on the NASDAQ when conditions allow, in order to expose the company to the American markets and the significant analytical capabilities of the major investment banks.” About AstroRx ® & ALS Kadimastem’s flagship product, AstroRx®, is a breakthrough technology that is comprised of a unique and large cell population of astrocytes derived from human pluripotent stem cells. The cells are intended to support the survival of motoneurons (the neurons control the motor-capability) in the central nervous system (CNS, brain, and spinal cord). These neurons are damaged in ALS, due to the harsh conditions in the CNS of the ALS patient and the consequential and eventual malfunctioning of the patient’s own astrocytes. This situation hampers and annuls the neuromuscular signaling, which leads to eventual paralysis and death. In December 2020, Kadimastem announced the results of the first of its kind, Phase I/IIa clinical trial, in which healthy and functioning astrocyte cells (AstroRx®) were injected into the spinal fluid of 10 ALS patients. Data showed that AstroRx® has the potential to slow the progression of ALS, as indicated by a clinical score called ALSFRS-R. Kadimastem plans to test repeated doses every three months of AstroRx® to achieve a continuous delay of the disease. Based on data that the company has to date, the company estimates that approximately 3 years after the completion of the upcoming clinical trial and receiving marketing approval, the marketing potential of AstroRx® in ALS patients in the US could reach approximately 0.5 billion dollars annually[1]. In addition, the product would be marketed in additional markets while concomitantly being tested in clinical trials in other neurodegenerative indications in the US. About Kadimastem Kadimastem is a clinical stage cell therapy company, developing and manufacturing "off-the-shelf", allogeneic, proprietary cell products based on its technology platform for the expansion and differentiation of Human Embryonic Stem Cells (hESCs) into functional cells. AstroRx®, the company's lead product, is an astrocyte cell therapy in clinical development for the treatment for ALS and in pre-clinical studies for other neurodegenerative indications. IsletRx is the company's treatment for diabetes. IsletRx is comprised of functional, insulin and glucagon producing and releasing pancreatic islet cells, intended to treat and potentially cure patients with insulin-dependent diabetes.

Based on data from the aforementioned source (there are 30,000 ALS patients in the US, as well as 5,000 new cases of ALS that are diagnosed each year), and under the following assumptions: (1) gradual entry into the market after receiving approval for the product; (2) each cellular treatment in the US will cost the payer at least about 25,000 US dollars (based on the benchmark work performed by the company); (3) Each ALS patient in the US will require about 4 cellular treatments from the company in one year, that is, an annual cost of at least about 100,000 US dollars. Kadimastem was founded by Professor Michel Revel, CSO of the company and Professor Emeritus of Molecular Genetics at the Weizmann Institute of Science. Professor Revel received the Israel Prize for the invention and development of Rebif®, a multiple sclerosis blockbuster drug sold worldwide.

SkinCell Advanced Emerges As The Leading Brand To Treat Skin Tags and Moles In The Market

Allied PR

SkinCell Advanced is a corrector serum that is deemed to be a fast and effective solution to any kinds of blemishes such as moles and skin tags. It delivers results as soon as eight hours after applying the serum on the affected area. The serum provides such products by triggering a rush of white blood cells or leukocytes in the user's body to the mole or skin tag's location. White blood cells are the immune system of our body, and they protect our bodies against foreign particles. With the white blood cells' added efforts, the serum starts removing the blemish and subsequently healing it as well. Click here to find more on SkinCell Advanced Sanguinaria Canadensis, one of the main ingredients in the SkinCell Advanced serum, is a perennial herbaceous flowering plant initially found in the eastern parts of North America. This plant, commonly known as bloodroot, was essentially used by Native Americans to treat various clinical conditions and was deemed an effective natural remedy for centuries. The Sanguinaria Canadensis flower's primary function is to stimulate the immune system and trigger white blood cells to the injured or influenced portion of the human body and begin the process of healing. The SkinCell Advanced serum uses this particular function of the flower and triggers the white blood cells to rush to the area where it is applied. Skin tags and moles often spurts up in unwanted places, and people go to new extents every day to remove them. SkinCell Advanced offers a safe and natural way to remove them without the hassle of costly surgeries and repetitive clinic appointments. On the serum application, it first alerts the immune system of the body by irritating the area containing the blemish and then triggering white blood cells to that area. The irritation is done by Zincum Muriaticum, which is known for its powerful skin irritating properties. This mineral is found in the Earth's crust and acts as a strong disinfectant and has superior antiseptic qualities. Then the serum, with the help of this mineral creates a slight inflammation over the blemish, and a small scab will form over it. The SkinCell Advanced company says that this scab will be formed after eight hours of application. Once the scab is formed over the blemish, the human immune system sees it as an injury which it has to heal and thus the body’s natural process of healing begins. The bloodroot flower extract facilitates the healing process as it helps create a concentration of white blood cells under the scab. These white blood cells will notice the scab on the user’s skin and immediately start healing it. As soon as the scab forms on the blemish, the user must stop applying the SkinCell Advanced serum and let their natural immune system do the rest of the healing. The scab which had formed over the blemish must be left alone. The user should let the scab fall off naturally. Any amount of picking at the scab or even scratching it can act as a risk of scarring. To ensure that no scars form under the scab, SkinCell Advanced advises their users not to touch the scab until it has fallen off entirely and use a Neosporin type product to limit the risk of scarring. The company has also manufactured a Repair Cream which acts as a catalyst in the healing process and ensures that the mole or skiing tag does not leave a scar. If the user does the whole process correctly, SkinCell Advanced makes sure that the blemish will disappear entirely and show no returning signs. The serum treats a wide variety of skin blemishes, including skin tags, dark moles, small warts, light moles, and even big warts. These blemishes, especially those in painful areas such as on armpits and the neck, can become frustrating to deal with. More often than not, these blemishes can become irritated from rubbing against one's clothing and cause them even more discomfort. SkinCell Advanced offers an ultimate solution to such people with their effective serum which shows quite impressive results in under eight hours. Contact Details Melissa support@jollofnews.com
