HT at Social Innovation Campus
Human Technopole takes part in the second edition of the Social Innovation Campus promoted by MIND’s Social Innovation Academy of MIND of Fondazione Triulza. The initiative, which will take place entirely online on 3-4 February 2021, is aimed at young people, university and secondary schools students.
The theme of this year’s campus is “Social Tech: a reaction to restart“, with the aim of bringing together all the best innovations, energies and ideas to react to the difficult economic and social scenario created by the pandemic. The themes of sustainable development and the co-design approach between different worlds that characterize the Campus are also in line with the objectives of the “Next Generation EU” (Recovery fund): accelerating the dual green and digital transition and strengthening social enterprises through innovation processes.
Here the details of HT’s events:
Wednesday 3 February h11.00
Scientific innovations: cryo-electron microscopy
Paolo Swuec, Head of CryoElectron Microscopy Facility
Thursday 4 February h14.30

COVID-19: How SARS‑CoV‑2 Enters Human Cells
A study by the University of Padua and Human Technopole, together with the University of Milan and the European Institute of Oncology, published in Cell Reports Medicine, reveals that SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, binds the RAGE receptor present on the surface of specific human immune cells to penetrate them and pathologically alter their function. This study also shows how the involvement of RAGE, previously known only in the context of other pathophysiological conditions, such as obesity and diabetes, is implicated in the degree of severity with which COVID-19 can manifest.
