Antonio Valentino SaporitoDear Inis,
I’m writing on behalf of the Neurology Department of the University Hospital of Cagliari.
We are a major University Hospital department in Italy and we are interested in seeking opportunities to join a partnership within the Interreg EURO-MED.
We are located at the Policlinico Universitario in Monserrato, Cagliari, a major university teaching hospital in southern Sardinia working through an integrated public health, academic, and research framework with the University of Cagliari. The Hospital provides highly-specialised healthcare services from across the region, with a catchment area of over 500,000 people, and is a regional reference hub for several specialties including Oncology, Rheumatology and Immunology, Cardiology and other specialised services.
We are located at the Neurology Department, directed by Professor Monica Puligheddu, a tertiary centre for (1) epilepsy; (2) sleep disorders; (3) neurodegenerative and cognitive disorders; (4) Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). The Department has access to imaging facilities such as MRI and SPECT imaging. We are actively involved in clinical and translational research, with particular interests in Alzheimer, sleep disorders, Parkinson’s disease, ALS, epilepsy and early biomarkers of neurodegeneration.
We are interested in exploring opportunities within the “promoting green living areas” mission, mainly centred on projects about prevention of neurodegenerative diseases, environmental and lifestyle optimisation for neurologically vulnerable people, modification of risk factors of disease, and similar projects.
