Philippe Menei is a prominent researcher in the field of neurosurgery and nanomedicine, particularly focused on developing innovative treatments for brain tumors like glioblastoma. Here are some key details about his professional background:
Research Focus
Philippe Menei is a member of the GLIAD team (Innovative Local Alternatives in the Medical Treatment of Glioblastomas) at the Integrated Cancer and Immunology Research Center Nantes - Angers (CRCI2NA).1 His work centers on developing micro- and nanomedical strategies for treating gliomas and other solid tumors.
Academic Positions
- Professor (PU-PH) at the University of Angers1
- Researcher at INSERM UMR-1066, Micro et Nano-Médecines Biomimétiques (MINT) in Angers, France2
Clinical Role
Menei also serves as a neurosurgeon at the University Hospital of Angers, combining his clinical expertise with his research endeavors.1
Research Contributions
He has been involved in pioneering work on:
- Developing innovative strategies based on micro and nanovectorization for localized drug delivery to the central nervous system1
- Exploring new approaches for targeting and eliminating radioresistant cells in glioblastoma1
- Contributing to studies on glioblastoma intratumor heterogeneity, which is crucial for understanding treatment resistance and developing more effective therapies2
Philippe Menei's work bridges the gap between basic research and clinical application, aiming to improve outcomes for patients with challenging brain tumors through the use of advanced nanomedicine techniques.
