In a ceremony held at the 24th Annual EAU Congress in Stockholm, Sweden, the Astellas European Foundation announced the winner of Urology 2009. Dr. Wouter Everaerts, MD and his team at KU Leuven, Belgium, received a cash prize of U.S. $ 300,000 to support their work in investigating the role of channel transient receptor potential (TRP or by Advertisement its acronym in English) in the bladder.
The Astellas European Foundation is a registered charity, founded in 2005, with the long-term objective to provide support for programs and activities that contribute to the advancement of a society increasingly healthy. Award of Urology Astellas European Foundation was established in 2006 to recognize the strong commitment of urology with Astellas. Since its inception, the program has provided more than 1.2 million U.S. dollars to support basic medical and scientific programs that contribute to advances in urology.

Reverse osmosis is a water treatment from molecular membranes which removes all types of substances which may have the liquid, which after filtering only pure water is produced. The system is used in many processes involved in many industries.
Although currently being used mainly for potablización water, reverse osmosis arose from the 50s in the industrial world, and their uses have diversified over time to cover large areas. This arises from the benefits gained in applying it, because it removes dissolved solids and microorganisms in water by 99 percent and its operation is simple and requires no major maintenance.

Amira Pharmaceuticals, Inc. announced it will present preclinical data on its program of LPA1 receptor antagonist on June 30, 2009 in the summer research conference of the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) held in Carefree, Arizona.
The LPA1 receptor is part of the phosphatidic acid path / lisofosfatidilcolina, which among other things is associated with the communication from cell to cell. In recent studies, it has been shown to play a role in fibrotic disease, particularly idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).
