Human Technopole is collaborating with the Department of Molecular Medicine of the University of Padua and with the Paediatric Research Institute Città della Speranza of Padua to support the genetic and transcriptomic analysis of the population of Vo’ and of samples from COVID-positive patients collected by the University Hospital of Padua.
These analysis, together with the integration and computational analysis of the resulting data, will allow to study the evolution and epidemiology of the SARS-CoV-2 infection, as well as to identify any associations with the susceptibility of the infection and with the severity of the disease.
Meet Clelia Peano, Head of the National Facility for Genomics. The Facility offers cutting-edge services to develop robust experimental and analytical workflows to explore different genomic research areas, including DNA and RNA analysis, chromatin structure, and epigenetic mechanisms regulating transcription. The goal is to enhance genomic research in all its aspects, benefiting the entire Italian scientific community.
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.
Five years since its inception, Human Technopole is now a dynamic institute where researchers from around the world have laid the foundations for unravelling the fundamental mechanisms of life across multiple biological scales – molecules, cells, tissues, organs, organisms, populations – in space and time.
Milan, 11 November 2020 – Human Technopole, Italy’s new research centre for life sciences, has announced the leadership of the Genomics Research Centre with the appointment of Nicole Soranzo and Piero Carninci as Heads of the Centre. The joint appointment represents the strategic approach of the Institute to develop dual research programmes in Population and […]
A new paper published by Nuclear Acids Research and co-authored by Francesco Iorio, Group Leader at the Centre for Computational Biology, describes the creation of Project Score: a web portal enabling users to estimate the potential of each gene as a therapeutic target of future anti-cancer drugs. Project Score, created and maintained by the group of Mathew Garnett at […]
