On 19 September 2025, the Science, Biotech & Beyond series hosted its second episode of the season at ICCVS, Gdańsk. Our guest was Dr. Karolina Kaźmierczak-Siedlecka (Medical University of Gdańsk, Fahrenheit Biobank BBMRI.pl), who delivered a lecture titled: “Gut and tumour microbiome-related aspects – are they novel possibilities to enhance anti-cancer management?”
Dr. Kaźmierczak-Siedlecka presented the latest insights into the interplay between the gut and tumour microbiome, the emerging field of pharmacomicrobiomics, and the impact of microbes on cancer treatment and systemic disorders. The lecture highlighted how understanding microbial interactions in the tumour microenvironment could open new opportunities for advancing anti-cancer strategies.
The session was chaired by Prof. Natalia Marek-Trzonkowska and attracted an audience eager to explore microbiome-driven innovations in oncology.
Thank you to everyone who joined us – stay tuned for the next episode of Science, Biotech & Beyond!
