Human Technopole joins M’illumino di meno
Human Technopole joins M’illumino di meno, the initiative of Rai Radio 2 and Caterpillar, and on the evening of Friday 6th March symbolically switches off the lights of Palazzo Italia and the Tree of Life, the iconic installation of Expo Milano 2015.
But MIND’s contribution to raising awareness of the issues of sustainability and ecology does not stop there. To the over 13,000 trees and 67,000 shrubs planted for EXPO 2015, over the next few years about 3,500 new trees will be added to the area, transforming the Decumano into one of the longest linear parks in Europe. A large green lung around which will be built the new Galeazzi Orthopaedic Institute, the campus of the scientific faculties of the State University of Milan and Human Technopole.
It will be a real new city district dedicated to the diffusion of science, research and innovation with a focus on light mobility, new technologies and improvement of the quality of life in order to offer the new generations an increasingly green and sustainable future.

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.
