Human Technopole is collaborating with the Department of Molecular Medicine of the University of Padua and with the Paediatric Research Institute Città della Speranza of Padua to support the genetic and transcriptomic analysis of the population of Vo’ and of samples from COVID-positive patients collected by the University Hospital of Padua.
These analysis, together with the integration and computational analysis of the resulting data, will allow to study the evolution and epidemiology of the SARS-CoV-2 infection, as well as to identify any associations with the susceptibility of the infection and with the severity of the disease.
Human Technopole has presented 102 research projects that were the first to benefit from the cutting-edge equipment of the National Facilities — the advanced technologies that the Institute makes available to external researchers from across Italy. The majority of studies focus on cancer and neurodegenerative diseases, accounting for 50% of the selected projects. The announcement was made this morning in Milan during “Open HT – The Open Day on Life Sciences”, an event designed to showcase Human Technopole’s achievements and outline future goals.
Human Technopole is offering up to 10 fully funded PhD scholarships through the SEMM PhD Program in Systems Medicine. These scholarships are open to talented and motivated graduates—both from Italy and abroad – interested in pursuing doctoral research.
Meet Alice Giustacchini, Research Group Leader in Population and Medical Genomics. Her project, titled “Tailoring Precision Immunotherapy to Paediatric Acute Myeloid Leukaemia,” aims to study the cellular and molecular dynamics of CAR-T cell therapy in blood cancers.
The new call for Access to the National Facilities services is now open! The Human Technopole’s National Facilities continue to expand their support for cutting-edge research by launching the first Call for Access of 2025. Building on the success of the 24-PILOT call, to which over 120 projects have applied, this new opportunity allows researchers to benefit from state-of-the-art technologies and expertise.
Following the launch of the first pilot call for access in June 2024, researchers across Italy enthusiastically responded, submitting over 120 applications to utilize the Human Technopole’s cutting-edge facilities for their innovative research projects.
