A study from Human Technopole, the University of Milano-Bicocca and Università di Milano reveals new details about how thyroxine – the primary form of thyroid hormone in the blood – is formed, shedding light on a mechanism involving a specific type of amino acid in the thyroglobulin protein. The findings are published in The Journal of Biochemistry and highlighted with the journal’s cover.

Oliver Harschnitz has been awarded a FIS Starting Grant for his proposal “Dissecting HSV-1 Latency and Reactivation using Trigeminal Organoids,” receiving funding of 1.3 million euros. The project, starting in March 2025, will run for three years.

A Long Non-Coding RNA Identified as a Potential Therapeutic Target for Multiple Myeloma: Collaborative AIRC Study by University of Magna Graecia and Human Technopole Published in Blood.

A multidisciplinary team led out of the ADAPT Centre at Trinity College Dublin has published cutting-edge research on a new tool designed to enable efficient data linkages between rare diseases and environmental datasets. Published recently in Nature Digital Medicine, the researchers present SERDIF (Semantic Environmental and Rare Disease data Integration Framework), an innovative framework that enables health data researchers to efficiently link environmental and health data sources through location and time information.

Human Technopole researchers have developed an improved cryo-lift out technique: Serialized On-grid Lift-in Sectioning for Tomography (SOLIST). SOLIST is a significant upgrade over previous approaches and allows imaging tissues to reveal their native organization at a molecular level with a throughput previously impossible. The results of the research are published in Nature Methods.
