El guard\u00f3 s\u2019ha lliurat a Berl\u00edn, durant la celebraci\u00f3 de la Cimera Mundial de la Salut, la trobada internacional m\u00e9s destacada en l\u2019\u00e0mbit sanitari.<\/span> <\/p>\n<p> Segons expliquen els organitzadors, el premi reconeix \u201cla investigaci\u00f3 altament innovadora en la ci\u00e8ncia biom\u00e8dica que promet tenir un impacte positiu en la salut humana\u201d.

Abans de la seva incorporaci\u00f3 a l\u2019IDIBELL, Esteller va liderar el Laboratori d\u2019Epigen\u00e8tica del C\u00e0ncer del Centre Nacional d\u2019Investigacions Oncol\u00f2giques (CNIO).<\/p>\n<p>Doctor en Medicina per la Universitat de Barcelona, \u00e9s autor de m\u00e9s de dos-cents articles cient\u00edfics, membre de nombroses societats cient\u00edfiques internacionals i d\u2019editorials, i revisor de diverses publicacions.

Es va llicenciar en medicina a la Universitat de Barcelona l\u2019any 1992, on es va doctorar l\u2019any 1996 amb un treball sobre la gen\u00e8tica molecular del carcinoma d\u2019endometri. De l\u2019any 1997 al 2001 va fer els estudis de postdoctorat a la Johns Hopkins University (Baltimore, Estats Units), on va estudiar la relaci\u00f3 entre la metilaci\u00f3 de l\u2019ADN i el c\u00e0ncer. De fet, el seu treball ha estat decisiu per demostrar que tots els tumors humans tenen en com\u00fa una alteraci\u00f3 qu\u00edmica concreta: la hipermetilaci\u00f3 dels gens supressors de tumors.<\/p>\n<p>Les seves aportacions, de notable originalitat, contribueixen a revisar i complementar paradigmes cient\u00edfics que es creien ben establerts, en demostrar la import\u00e0ncia de factors externs en la modificaci\u00f3 directa de gens amb efectes per a la seva regulaci\u00f3. La seva obra cient\u00edfica, de gran extensi\u00f3 malgrat la seva joventut, demostra com les modificacions epigen\u00e8tiques del material hereditari poden contribuir al desenvolupament dels processos d&#8217;envelliment i c\u00e0ncer.
