Life Science, the Italian Way

There are many ways to do something, at least as many as there are cultures. In Italy we have our way: we believe that improving people’s health is an art which need continuous research, passion and attention to details.

We know that research is made of small details and that innovation is a dress to wear everyday: this is how we are building Life Science in Italy, at the heart of the MIND – Milano Innovation District, with Human Technopole.

For the Fifth Edition of the Italian Research Day in the World, celebrated on April 15th, we created a joint video with the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs to promote the excellence of the Italian life science sector. In addition, Human Technopole researchers will participate in events and initiatives organised by the Italian diplomatic network, including an event organised by ARIA, The Italian Consulate in Adelaide and SAHMRI at Adelaide on May 9.
