2 fully funded PhD fellowships at HT through SISSA
Human Technopole is offering 2 fully funded 4-year PhD fellowships to young scientists from the national and international community who wish to undertake a doctoral degree on a project focused on Computational Biology.
We encourage applications from highly motivated graduates with outstanding academic qualifications. Successful candidates will join research groups headed by top-level scientists and will carry out their research in cutting-edge fields in a stimulating environment.
An international study co-led by scientists from Human Technopole reveals that colorectal tumours use both genetic and epigenetic strategies to evade immune detection almost immediately after they transform into cancerous. The results, published in Nature Genetics, challenge previous notions that immune evasion occurs gradually over time.
The HT Auditorium at the heart of the MIND district, hosted the presentation of the fifth edition of its Integrated Report, illustrating the first year of implementation of the 2024–2028 Strategic Plan. The document highlights the Institute’s scientific impact and its growing integration within Italy’s life sciences ecosystem, showcasing Human Technopole’s ongoing sustainable transformation throughout 2024.
Today is World Food Day, and we at Human Technopole are proud to share how we have recently joined the Colletta MIND food drive, organised in collaboration with other organisations at MIND – Milano Innovation District and with Banco Alimentare. For over 35 years, Banco Alimentare has been a key player in the fight against food waste and food insecurity, helping families and individuals in need across Italy.
Human Technopole researchers Nereo Kalebic and Blagoje Soskic have been awarded $1,319,010 by the Gilbert Family Foundation (GFF) through the Next-Generation NF1 Models Initiative. Their funded project “Assembloid Platform to Model Cellular Interactions Driving NF1 Glioma Pathology” focuses on developing the first 3D cell culture model of Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), a genetic cancer predisposition syndrome that affects the central and peripheral nervous systems and increases the risk of high-grade gliomas.
Meet Emily Georgiades, Postdoc in the Bienko Group (Genomics), who has been awarded a prestigious Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Postdoctoral Fellowship from the European Union for her project “GRADMAP: Multi-dimensional mapping of lineage-specific transcription factors through time and space”. The grant will cover a two-year period with 193.643 euros.
