In Corriere della Sera, President Marco Simoni reflects on the investments needed for the growth of science.
In the Corriere della Sera of 6 June, President Marco Simoni, talks about the increase in resources for universities and scientific research contained in the Relaunch Decree approved by the Government and stresses that this is the measure that will have the most important effect and the most important duration if we consider that it was at least 20 years that such a significant investment was missing.
The President also highlights how this represents a far-sighted decision considering the post-Covid19 recovery period that awaits us: science and industry will be at the heart of this reconstruction.
President Simoni stressed that science not only improves the quality of life and makes our society and economy grow, it is also a “precious antibody to our societies: it makes them stronger and more resistant to the unexpected crisis“.
Human Technopole, a leading biomedical and life sciences research institute based in Milan, is seeking three highly qualified candidates to join its Management Committee, the governing body responsible for the operational leadership of the Foundation.
PRECISE (Predictive Relationships Explaining Cancer Genetic Interactions and Synthetic Essentiality) is a pan-European initiative that aims to move cancer research beyond cataloguing cancer vulnerabilities towards predicting them before they are experimentally tested. Human Technopole (HT) is among the founding partners of the consortium, with Francesco Iorio leading its scientific activities across the institute alongside other HT research groups. The consortium and its scientific vision are presented in a Nature Genetics commentary.
Researchers at Human Technopole have developed a novel machine learning-based method that transforms composite fluorescence microscopy images with overlapping signals into separate images revealing individual cellular structures. The tool is published in Nature Methods, with experimental models and training data openly available on GitHub.
The mechanisms of life are complex. What happens at the molecular level shapes cells, tissues, organs and entire organisms. To understand human biology, and what drives disease, we need to connect these different scales rather than study them in isolation. That is our approach at Human Technopole.
In a large international collaboration, Human Technopole has contributed to the development of three complementary risk prediction models that estimate heart failure risk across the entire cardiovascular disease spectrum. Together, these tools enable transparent, data-driven risk assessment and support personalised treatment strategies and more sustainable healthcare delivery.
