Corriere Innovazione on HT antiCOVID19 projects
Milan, 9 April – Corriere Innovazione, the national insert of Corriere della Sera on innovation has dedicated a large article to the projects carried out by our scientists to contribute to the fight against Covid19. The full article is available here: https://bit.ly/3c1Qtlt
In the article there is the description of Data against COVID realized – together with other international scientists – by Florian Jug, Group Leader of the Centre of Computational Biology and Head of the Image Analysis facility in order to make available data science competences to medical staff working in the hospitals.
The article talks about the project “COVIDIamo” by Giuseppe Testa, Head of the Centre for Neurogenomics and aimed at understanding what goes wrong in diseased tissues by analyzing cellular functions. These studies could contribute to the use of existing drugs to treat the virus. The project is carried out in collaboration with the Milan University (UniMi), Sacco Hospital and IEO.

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.
