The latest news from HT scientists
5 December – New, important results from the scientists at Human Technopole.
Together with other researchers, Giuseppe Testa – head of the Neurogenomics Centre – discovered the “architect gene” of the face of modern man and provided experimental evidence of how today’s men are born from the same process of domestication of animals. The paper – published in Sciences Advances – is available at: http://bit.ly/38aN16L
In recent days, Human Technopole’s scientific activity has reached Russia. At the Regenerative Medicine meeting, Nereo Kalebic – Group Leader, Neurogenomics Centre – presented his latest findings on human brain development and neurogenesis.
New also from the Centre of Computational Biology. Francesco Iorio – Group Leader, Centre for Computational Biology – has joined the scientific advisory board of the AZ-CRUK Functional Genomics Centre: an initiative for functional genomics that aims to develop new cancer therapies through genetic screening, cancer modalling and big data processing.
