Chronic Dry Eyes Can Be Helped February 5, 2010 Dr. Mina Massaro-Giordano, an associate professor at the University of Pennsylvania and co-director of the Penn Dry Eye & Ocular Center, explains the problem of dry eyes and the newest therapies.. Why do Stem Cells Age? New study sheds light on senescence process January 22, 2010 Researchers from the Sbarro Institute for Cancer Research and Molecular Medicine at Temple University in Philadelphia and the Human Health Foundation in Spoleto, Italy have found that MECP2, a gene that modifies the chromatin in the cell, has important role in stem cell aging. Changes in tumor suppressor gene suggest a heritable susceptibility to retinoblastoma January 20, 2010 Researchers working at the Sbarro
Institute for Cancer Research and Molecular Medicine at Temple University in Philadelphia, PA and
at the University of Siena in Siena, Italy, have found that the downregulation, or reduction, of
the tumor suppressor gene 16INK4A may be a novel marker of the heritable susceptibility for the
disease. The study appears in the January is Glaucoma Awareness Month: Have You Scheduled an Eye Exam?

SHRO Research on Stem Cells Recognized November 20, 2009 Research by Umberto Galderisi and Antonio Giordano on the effect of stem cells in the treatment of arterial stenosis will be published as part of the proceedings of the prestigious 5th International Conference on Mesenchymal and Non-Hematopoietic Stem Cells (MSCs) at Texas A & M Health Science Center College of Medicine.
Antonio Giordano Receives Dean's Distinguished Award for Excellence in Research November 15, 2009 The award cites the quality of his work, "attested to by the fact that it provides an impetus for other investigators studying cancer growth control and it has resulted in a framework for our conceptualization of cancer development and mechanisms of tumor suppression."
Ang Sun, Ph.D. Wins Prize for 'Outstanding Research' November 3, 2009 Dr. Ang Sun, who studied for six years for his Ph.D. under the guidance of Antonio Giordano, M.D., Ph.D., the Founder and President of the Sbarro Health Research Organization, has been awarded the 2009 Award for Outstanding Research by a Graduate Student from the College of Science and Technology at Temple University.
