Dear students, the second edition of the Pharma Micro-Credentials courses is now underway at Rome Technopole.
Developed in collaboration with universities, research centers, industry, and businesses, the courses are designed to meet the challenges of the pharmaceutical sector, focusing on pharmaceuticals, medical devices, microbiological controls, and process digitalization. They are open to undergraduate and graduate students, PhD students, professionals, and technicians in the field.
The courses are held entirely online.
Attendance at one of the courses, following a final test that will be administered in person before the summer holidays, entitles students to an open badge certification equivalent to 2 credits (CFU), which can be recognized by their Degree Program Council within the AAF (Academic Academic Qualifications).

MASTER'S THESIS AT THE ISTITUTO SUPERIORE DI SANITA’
A master's thesis is available from the "Centro Nazionale per la Salute Globale dell’Istituto Superiore di Sanità" on the topic:
Study of the blockade of chemokine receptors CCR2 and CCR5 in cellular models of SARS-CoV-2 and HIV-1 infection.
Contact: Dr. Laura Fantuzzi - laura.fantuzzi@iss.it -0649903001
CCR2 and CCR5 are chemokine receptors that play a key role in the migration of monocytes/macrophages and T lymphocytes. They are implicated in the pathophysiology of various human diseases, including viral infections and conditions characterized by an inflammatory component. In vitro cellular models of HIV-1 and SARS-CoV-2 infection will be used to study the effect of blocking these receptors, using antibodies and antagonistic drugs, on viral replication and the antiviral and inflammatory response. The research will be conducted using cellular, molecular, and biochemical techniques.
The candidate must have a bachelor's degree in Biological Sciences or Biotechnology.
