SCALE UP

Project

The Department of Medical Biotechnology and Translational Medicine (BIOMETRA) performs research activities in the fields of medical biotechnology and experimental and translational medicine, promoting related teaching activities.

The general objective of SCALE-UP is to support the investigation of biological processes underlying patho-physiological mechanisms through the creation of 5 platforms at the service of the models: physical characterization, spatial omics, bioinformatics, imaging and genome editing.

To this aim, SCALE-UP has 4 specific objectives:

MODELS


PLATFORMS



TEACHING

The development and application of technologies and methodologies for biomedical research envisaged by SCALE-UP constitute the main aggregating theme of BIOMETRA education, which is focused on the training of professional figures dedicated to experimental and translational medicine

THIRD MISSION

BIOMETRA promotes and carries out a Third Mission (TM ), that is to work to encourage the direct application, enhancement and use of knowledge to contribute to the social, cultural and economic development of society.
