Future Trends in Translational Medicine
Human Technopole’s Centre for Innovation and Technology Transfer (CITT) and Nature Italy are organizing – on 26 and 27 October 2023 – a conference entitled “Future Trends in Translational Medicine”, aimed at investigating the new frontiers of research in the life sciences.
The event will be attended by leading figures from science and industry and is aimed at stimulating debate on the social impact of innovation and how society’s needs can help guide research towards these new frontiers. The ultimate goal is to explore trends in research investment to provide insights for policy makers and potential industrial partners.
The initiative is dedicated primarily to an audience of researchers in the early stages of their careers, offering an opportunity to reflect on ways to further enhance their research, as well as a discussion with representatives from academia, industry, finance, institutions, and civil society on the research ahead.
Take a look at the event website for detailed information and to submit your registration by 10 October 2023: Future Trends in Translational Medicine (nature.com)
Check out the event programme.
Take a look at the special issue produced with Nature: The translational gap: bridging basic research, clinical practices and society
Afterward, the first edition of the Life Science TTO Network Contest – “Pay attention to the value of your research: the top 5 missed opportunities” – will take place.

How sortilin senses thyroglobulin along its pathway to thyroid hormone release
Human Technopole researchers have identified the molecular mechanisms by which the membrane receptor sortilin binds thyroglobulin along its pathway to the release of thyroid hormones within the thyroid gland. The results of the research were published in Nature Communications and highlight that sortilin senses thyroglobulin via a short flexible “tag” which appears to be a common motif for the recognition of other partner proteins throughout our body.
