Main points
IDET concentrates on the use of technologies for the analysis of the genome and the transcriptome (affymetrix platform) together with the development of new analysis software.
The focus for the proteomics lies in the investigation of the protein-protein or protein-ligand-interactions (plasmon resonance technology [BIAcore ]).
Cell and molecular biology, genetics, the production of recombining proteins in eukaryotic and prokaryotic systems are particular strengths of the centre.
Brief description
The IDET Excellence Centre was founded with the aim of promoting activities in the field of molecular medicine at the University in Brescia. These activities are characterised by inter-disciplinary research in immunology, oncology, molecular genetics and neurobiology and take place in close interaction with clinical practice in paediatrics and gynaecology. The aim of the IDET Centre is the development of new technologies and molecules with diagnostic and therapeutic use in the named fields.
