📈 Thanks to Fondazione Telethon, a new trial phase is underway — testing a higher dose and pushing us closer to real impact.

🙏 Deep gratitude to the MPS community for their strength and partnership.
🧬 Through the MEUSIX project with @biomarinpharma.bsky.social and @ec.europa.eu funding, we launched the first AAV-based gene therapy trial for MPS VI — showing promising safety and efficacy. Why gene therapy?
Because current treatments fall short. We aim for a one-time, lasting solution.
🎗️ It’s MPS Awareness Day.

At TIGEM, we stand with patients — especially those with MPS VI (Maroteaux-Lamy syndrome), a rare lysosomal disorder caused by ARSB gene mutations.
📢Applications for SEMM PhD program are now open! 🎉

We have 2 open positions at TIGEM in the PhD program in Systems Medicine.

Deadline: June 9th – don’t miss it!

Excited for the International Mammalian Synthetic Biology Workshop (mSBW2025) — the only conference fully focused on mammalian synthetic biology! 🧬

Meet top experts, including @diegodibi.bsky.social, Genomic Medicine Program Coordinator at TIGEM and part of this year’s Organizing Committee.
Our journey began with science and compassion, inspired by the story of Rossella and a life-changing connection between Dr. Giancarlo Parenti and John Crowley in 2002 — a reminder that research, collaboration, and care can transform lives.

Read the full story here: www.tigem.it/newsroom/new...
from biomarkers discovery and lysosomal biology insights to innovative gene therapy and chaperone-based approaches.
Today we mark #InternationalPompeDiseaseDay, raising awareness for this rare genetic disorder. At TIGEM, supported by #FondazioneTelethon, we combine genetics, molecular biology, clinical research, and patient advocacy to advance new therapies —
💡 "TIGEM gave me the chance to return to Italy and make a difference. I want to push the boundaries of research on rare diseases."

Big things ahead for Andrea and his mission to advance molecular therapies! 🚀

AI, Biophysics & Rare Diseases: Andrea Pasquadibisceglie’s Mission at TIGEM
www.tigem.it
🔬 From Sweden to Italy: @andpdb.bsky.social is bringing his expertise in Computational Structural Biology back home!

After working at #KTH (Stockholm), he’s now a Staff Scientist at TIGEM, using AI and physics-based models to design hyperactive enzymes that improve gene therapy for rare diseases.
