CNR President Maria Chiara Carrozza visits HT
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 “.

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.

The “tubulin code” in control of molecular train logistics in cilia
By developing a sophisticated in vitro system coupled with advanced imaging techniques and CRISPR genome editing, an international team of researchers from Human Technopole (Italy) and the TUD Dresden University of Technology (Germany) shows that tubulin tyrosination/detyrosination regulates the bidirectional IFT train movement and avoids collision between trains moving in opposite directions along the cilium. The research was funded by the ERC and the DFG “Physics of Life” Excellence Cluster. The results are published in Nature Communications.
