International Cooperations
The Institute is Italian by birth
and constitution, as are its governing bodies and most senior staff. It therefore naturally works in close cooperation with the main Italian
scientific bodies. However, based on the principle that research knows no frontiers, the
Institute has always been a vigorous member of the international scientific community and foreign
scientists have always been welcome.
The results of the scientific work
are regularly published in leading international journals. The Institute has organized 81 international meetings, whose proceedings
have been distributed throughout the world. More than 11,200 scientists from more than 35 countries have attended
these conferences.
This activity is backed by a network
of individual contacts with research scientists in many countries, and by regular cooperation
arrangements with foreign universities and international organizations such as the
World Health Organisation, the European Union,
the European Organization for Research on Treatment of Cancer
(EORTC), EMEA, the American National Institutes of Health, and
the Weizmann Institute in Israel.
