On April 17, 2026, at the Chiostro di Sant\u2019Abbondio of the University of Insubria in Como, NERD \u2013 Next Generation Diagnostics<\/strong>, a cross-border project funded under the Interreg Italy\u2013Switzerland Programme<\/strong>, officially kicked off.<\/p>\n\n\n

\"Kick-off<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

NERD<\/a> was created to strengthen the competitiveness of precision oncology<\/strong> between Lombardy and Canton Ticino<\/strong>, addressing a concrete challenge: the development of qualified skills and the transfer of innovative molecular methodologies to support research and innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project is led by Bio4Dreams<\/strong>, which acts as the lead partner of the consortium<\/strong>, coordinating activities and connecting academic and industrial partners<\/strong>. Within this framework, Bio4Dreams contributes its experience in research valorization<\/strong>, technology transfer<\/strong>, and the development of innovation-driven pathways <\/strong>in the Life Sciences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alongside Bio4Dreams, the project involves the University of Insubria, the University of Milano-Bicocca, the Foundation for the Institute of Oncology Research, BigOmics Analytics, Nuova Genetica Italiana, and Stemgen<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The kick-off meeting was the first official opportunity for discussion among partners, stakeholders, and the scientific community to share the project\u2019s objectives, activities, and next steps, launching a cross-border collaboration path<\/strong> that brings together education, research, and business in support of precision oncology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
