In Corriere della Sera, President Marco Simoni reflects on the investments needed for the growth of science.
In the Corriere della Sera of 6 June, President Marco Simoni, talks about the increase in resources for universities and scientific research contained in the Relaunch Decree approved by the Government and stresses that this is the measure that will have the most important effect and the most important duration if we consider that it was at least 20 years that such a significant investment was missing.
The President also highlights how this represents a far-sighted decision considering the post-Covid19 recovery period that awaits us: science and industry will be at the heart of this reconstruction.
President Simoni stressed that science not only improves the quality of life and makes our society and economy grow, it is also a “precious antibody to our societies: it makes them stronger and more resistant to the unexpected crisis“.
Human Technopole is opening its National Facilities, providing advanced equipment and technologies accessible through calls for proposals open to the Italian scientific community. Projects will be selected by a commission of international experts. Scientists will have access to five new dedicated facilities, which act as catalysts for open innovation in the life sciences sector, crucial for research and the health of Italians.
An international team of scientists led by HT researchers Magda Bienko and Nicola Crosetto developed an open-source software for deconvolution of widefield fluorescence microscopy image stacks and large tissue scans. This new tool increases the information obtained with fluorescence microscopy-based spatial omic methods.
HT researchers are part of an international team of scientists that discovered genetic clues to the cause of restless leg syndrome, a condition common among older adults. The finding could help identify those individuals at greatest risk of the condition and point to potential ways to treat it.
Human Technopole (HT) is glad to announce the availability of 4 new fully funded PhD positions in the fields of Health Data Science, Population and Medical Genomics and Computational Biology. These positions aim to attract highly motivated graduates with strong academic backgrounds who are interested in cutting-edge research in data science.
Human Technopole is offering up to 19 fully funded PhD scholarships to young scientists from the national and international community who wish to undertake a doctoral degree on a project focused on Computational Biology, Structural Biology, Genomics, Neurogenomics or Biophysical modelling.
