Human Technopole Commitment to Gender Equality
Human Technopole is proud to announce the launch of its new Gender Equality Plan (GEP) for 2025-2027, a strategic initiative designed to further integrate gender equality across all aspects of the Institute, building upon the successful outcomes of the previous GEP (2022-2024). HT has also achieved the UNI/PdR 125:2022 certification, which recognizes organizations that promote gender equality and foster inclusive workplaces.
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.
Childhood Cancer: Free DNA in Blood Reveals Therapy Resistance
An international study coordinated by Milan’s Human Technopole, the Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) in London, and the Royal Marsden Hospital in London has shown that certain DNA fragments found in the blood of paediatric cancer patients can be used as “biomarkers” to obtain information on the characteristics of the disease and its ability to resist therapies. Analysing these fragments could represent an effective alternative to tumour tissue biopsy, a practice that is particularly difficult in children.
