The BioGeM Institute (Biotecnologia e Genetica Molecolare, Biotechnology and Molecular Genetics) is a nonprofit consortium formed by the National Research Council (CNR), the University of Naples "Federico II", the Stazione Zoologica Anton Dohrn of Naples, the University of Sannio in Benevento, the University of Milan Bicocca, the Neuromed Foundation, the IRCCSes (Scientific Institute of Admission and Care) Casa Sollievo della Sofferenza, the SDN Foundation and the Chamber of Commerce of Avellino. BioGeM was inaugurated in 2006 and it comprises research laboratories, services and teaching facilities.[1]
Scientific research, lead by “Gaetano Salvatore” Genetics Research Institute (IRGS), takes place within Genetics and Translational Medicine (GTM) department and is aimed at understanding biological mechanisms and identifying the genes involved in the development and proliferation of various human diseases; the research is based on the use of animal models raised in a high level laboratory[2] after the approval of the ethics committee for animal experimentation.[3]
