President Marco Simoni tells Linkiesta about the priorities for the post-Covid restart19
On the online newspaper Linkiesta President Marco Simoni talked about the postCovid restart19. According to the President, there are three areas to focus on to tackle phase 3: investment in schools and healthcare, less bureaucracy and more long-term plans in strategic areas.
In particular, the President stressed that the biggest challenges are “public health, environment and migration” and how these can be addressed “only with a major investment in science and research“.
The President also spoke about Human Technopole’s commitment against Covid19 and highlighted how “scientific plans have in fact accelerated” with the launch of a number of projects including LifeTime for COVID19, a Europe-wide initiative to study how the virus impacts different patients depending on their genetic make-up.
