Eugenia Menni Research Centre

Eugenia Menni Research Centre (CREM) of Fondazione Poliambulanza was born in 2002  within the hospital as a place of study and research.

Eugenia Menni Research Centre (CREM) of Fondazione Poliambulanza was born in 2002 within the hospital as a place of study and research dedicated to the memory of Madre Eugenia Menni, who strongly desired a research centre working  together with the hospital itself.  The ultimate purpose of the project was to integrate two unavoidable aspects of the modern medicine, that is the scientific progress and patient’s care.

OUR GOAL
CREM was born with precise objectives and programs :

  • Realize a research centre within an institute, such as Fondazione Poliambulanza, thus sharing aspirations, ideals, values and goals.
  • Do basic research by  activating projects in some specific areas within disciplines that include molecular biology and cellular biology in the biomedical field.
  • Do applied research by transferring the most advanced technical-methodological acquisitions to clinical requirements, so as to  achieve the ultimate goal, that is, the integration between research and patient's care.
  • Educate on research by promoting training programs for young researchers.  
  • Create an international environment by promoting internships abroad and hosting foreign researchers.
  • Implement and continue to improve a control system of research processes.

OUR MISSION
The mission of Eugenia Menni Research Centre can be summarized as  follows:

  • Faith in research as source of knowledge.
  • Scientific enthusiasm for the most advanced biomedical innovations.   
  • Creation of real professional skills.
  • Encourage national and international scientific collaborations. Basic and applied research activities and promotion of therapeutic strategies with focus on human being and respectful of life.
