  • Stem Cells and the Kidney

    Stem cells represent the seeds of tissue regeneration and a promising source for novel therapies. Converging evidence suggested that they represent basic units of development and regeneration also in the kidney. Understanding the mechanisms that control renal progenitor fate and function represents the crucial step for translating kidney regeneration into the clinic and initiating the age of regenerative nephrology.

  • Florence, Italy

    Florence is considered to be one of the most beautiful cities in Italy and center of Italian Renaissance.  Florence's museums, palaces, and churches house some of the greatest artistic treasures in the world. Florence is not just the cradle of Renaissance or an open-air museum. This splendid city is a famous shopping destination.
