Human Technopole at the Quirinale: Advancing Innovation with MIND
Human Technopole is honoured to have participated in today’s meeting at the Quirinale, where President of the Republic Sergio Mattarella welcomed a delegation from MIND on the occasion of the tenth anniversary of the universal exposition Milano EXPO 2015.
The Human Technopole President, Gianmario Verona, joined Igor De Biasio (CEO of AREXPO), Marina Brambilla (Rector of the University of Milan), and Alberto Mina (President of the Foundation for Innovation and Technology Transfer – FITT) to present the vision and progress of MIND, the innovation hub that has transformed the former EXPO 2015 site.
This meeting reaffirms the strategic importance of MIND in fostering research, technology transfer, and innovation at a national and international level. At Human Technopole, we are proud to contribute to this ecosystem, advancing scientific research to improve human health and technology.

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.
