Unit of Biomedical, Biotechnological and Translational biomedical sciences (S.Bi.Bi.T.)

The S.Bi.Bi.T. Unit represents the engine of basic and applied research in the Department, laying the foundation for translational medicine and the transformation of research results into therapeutic and diagnostic innovations, through a high-level cross-scientific pathway from basic Molecular medicine to advanced biomedical research and thus to the transfer of this to the clinical, biotechnological and, potentially, productive level.

The Unit, an expression of the unified perspective of research, teaching and assistance, in fact sees the collaboration of Professors and Researchers who operate and find specific reasons for aggregation on four areas of basic and applied scientific research, all characterized by strong transferability on the clinical and biotechnological level:

  • Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, Morphology and Molecular Pathophysiology of Systems:Biochemistry, Molecular and Applied Biology, General Microbiology, Histology, Human Anatomy and General Pathology.
  • Laboratory Diagnostics: Clinical Biochemistry and Clinical Molecular Biology, Microbiology, Clinical Pathology, Medical Genetics, and Pathologic Anatomy.
  • Physiopathology of the Head and Neck District:Ophthalmology, Ophthalmology, Maxillofacial Surgery, Otolaryngology and Audiology.
  • Welfare, Prevention, Public Health, Epidemiology, Rehabilitation, Forensic Medicine and Medical Ethics: Motor Sciences, Hygiene, Physics and Rehabilitation Medicine, and Forensic Medicine

The logical pathway thus sees "circular" competencies brought together in a single departmental Unit, which, guided by the regulatory and deontological setting, start from the morphological, molecular and pathophysiological investigation of systems, pass through laboratory diagnostics, arrive at the clinical (including its management aspects) and flow into the epidemiological data of population, prevention and welfare. These, in turn, can address feedback to basic and applied fields of investigation.
