Today CNR President Maria Chiara Carrozza visited Human Technopole headquarters together with a delegation of department and institute directors of the National Research Council. HT Director Iain Mattaj and HT President Marco Simoni were joined at the meeting by representatives of the institute’s research areas who gave President Carrozza a tour of Human Technopole’s first laboratory spaces.
“We are very pleased to welcome to Palazzo Italia the newly appointed CNR President Maria Chiara Carrozza. Since its very early stages, Human Technopole has initiated a dialogue with representatives of the national scientific community to build a collaborative network and bring added value to an already thriving research ecosystem. We share with CNR our commitment to scientific excellence, an open and international approach and our goal of training the next generation of scientists” stated prof. Mattaj.
President Carrozza underlined, “I am happy to have met, together with the directors of Cnr, the top management and colleagues of Human Technopole and to have visited their headquarters. It was an informal, simple and friendly visit, in the spirit of a meeting between researchers, but important to prepare ourselves for the challenges we will face post-pandemic, starting from ecological transition, digital transformation and health. Challenges in which the contribution of research, and particularly biomedical research, is fundamental “.
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.
