The development of the Human Technopole Foundation, the new multidisciplinar research institute focused on life sciences in Milano, proceeds with the recruitment of the Head of Operations and four members of the Management Committee.

The Supervisory Board of the Human Technopole Foundation met at Palazzo Italia, the new multidisciplinary research institute for life sciences in Milan. In the first Board meeting, Prof. Iain Mattaj, currently Director General of the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), was appointed as Director of Human Technopole

Iain Mattaj is the scientist identified by the Coordination Committee for the direction of Human Technopole

The indipendent commission, in charge of examinating the candidates for the position of Human Technopole director, presented today to the project Coordination Committee its own evaluations about the scientists selected in the short list

Today the first 2500 squared meters of Palazzo Italia were given to the new multidisciplinar research infrastructure focused on life sciences. Once fully operative, Human Technopole will employ 1,500 people and will occupy 30,000 square meters in the Park of Science, Knowledge and Innovation, that rises in the same area where Expo Milan 2015 was set.  Paleari: “This result is due to Human Technopole and all the Institutions teamwork”Bonomi: “Arexpo managed to respect the timetable”
