16 May 2018 – Marco Simoni is nominated First President of the Foundation, former economic advisor to the Presidency of the Council of Ministers, professor of Economic Policy at the London School of Economics, currently adjunct professor at the Luiss Business School, former member of the Coordination Committee in charge of providing the Statute of the Foundation and supervising the start-up phase of the project, since the very beginning he has followed the projects of reconversion of the Expo area, now MIND Milano Innovation District.
Members of the Supervisory Board:
Daniele Franco (State Account General) Marco Mancini (Chief Department, Ministry of Education University and Research) Mauro Marè (Professor of Public Finance, Luiss) Marcella Panucci (Confindustria) Donatella Sciuto (Executive Vice Rector, Politecnico of Milano) Roberta Siliquini (President, Consiglio Superiore Sanità, Ministry of Health).
With the formal approval of the Statute of the Foundation on last March 27 and the designation of the members of the Supervisory Board a new phase of the Human Technopole project starts.
The Glastonbury Group is among the recipients of the Data Insights Cycle 3 awards. The aim of the grant is to develop a machine learning model that identifies disease-relevant cell subpopulations whilst predicting a phenotype/disease of interest from large-scale single-cell RNA-seq data.
In collaboration with an international team of scientists, HT researchers identified a missense mutation in a gene involved in brain-intrinsic immunity as the genetic cause of SARS-CoV-2 brainstem encephalitis.
A study by Human Technopole, the Institute of Cancer Research and the Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust in London has shown that in prostate cancer the presence in the same tumour of cells with large differences in shape and genetic composition indicates an increased risk of relapse, including after a decade. The study may help doctors better tailor treatment for this disease, adopting more aggressive therapies in cases where these parameters indicate a higher risk of disease recurrence.
Human Technopole is opening its National Facilities, providing advanced equipment and technologies accessible through calls for proposals open to the Italian scientific community. Projects will be selected by a commission of international experts. Scientists will have access to five new dedicated facilities, which act as catalysts for open innovation in the life sciences sector, crucial for research and the health of Italians.
An international team of scientists led by HT researchers Magda Bienko and Nicola Crosetto developed an open-source software for deconvolution of widefield fluorescence microscopy image stacks and large tissue scans. This new tool increases the information obtained with fluorescence microscopy-based spatial omic methods.
