A comprehensive international study led by IRCCS Ospedale San Raffaele in Milan has challenged the effectiveness of acute normovolemic hemodilution (ANH) in reducing the need for allogeneic blood transfusions during cardiac surgery involving cardiopulmonary bypass. Published in The New England Journal of Medicine, this multicenter, randomized trial involved 2,010 patients from 32 centers across 11 countries. […]
In June 2025, Humanitas inaugurated a state-of-the-art imaging laboratory at its Roberto Rocca Innovation Building in Milan, marking a significant advancement in medical research. This facility houses the Correlative Light and Electron Microscopy (CLEM) platform, a pioneering technology that combines optical and electron microscopy to create a comprehensive, 4D (space + time) visualization of cellular processes. It's the first of its kind in Italy and among the few in Europe integrated within a research hospital. […]
Fondazione Mondino IRCCS and the University of Pavia have officially launched a joint Medical Informatics and Artificial Intelligence Unit, a strategic move that positions Pavia at the forefront of the transition toward the “smart hospital” model. This new structure expands on the existing work of Mondino’s Digital Neurosciences, Advanced Imaging, and AI teams, creating a centralized innovation core. [...]
In recent years, minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery has revolutionized the field of breast and gynecological oncology, offering patients effective treatments with reduced recovery times and improved aesthetic outcomes. These advanced surgical techniques are now widely adopted in leading Italian medical centers, including those within the Gruppo San Donato network. […]
Auxologico's commitment to advancing medical research is exemplified by the recognition of several of its leading scientists in the 2025 Research.com rankings of the Best Scientists in Medicine. These accolades underscore the institution's dedication to excellence in cardiovascular, genetic, and endocrinological research. […]
In late May 2025, Brescia’s Eugenia Menni Research Centre (CREM) at Fondazione Poliambulanza hosted the kick-off meeting for the SECRET project, an ambitious European initiative exploring the therapeutic potential of perinatal cell secretomes. Around 20 participants, including doctoral candidates and international partners, convened to launch this interdisciplinary research programme under Horizon Europe – Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions.
