E\u2019 in corso al Sidra Medicine di Doha \u2013 il centro ospedaliero e di ricerca medica d\u2019eccellenza in Qatar \u2013 il workshop \u201cEngineered Immune Cells in Cancer Immunotherapy\u201d, che riunisce il 15 e 16 febbraio alcuni dei principali esperti mondiali \u2013 tra i quali anche specialisti italiani – per un confronto e aggiornamento sullo sviluppo e i progressi delle terapie cellulari immunologiche contro il cancro. I progetti di ricerca medica in questo settore specifico sono seguiti al Sidra Medicine da un\u2019equipe di ricercatori italiani, che conducono a Doha un programma di studi all\u2019avanguardia.<\/p>\n
All\u2019apertura dei lavori del workshop \u00e8 intervenuto l\u2019Ambasciatore d\u2019Italia in Qatar, Pasquale Salzano, per sottolineare il peso crescente della ricerca scientifica \u201cMade in Italy\u201d nel Paese e promuovere le attivit\u00e0 e l\u2019impegno dei ricercatori italiani in campo medico.<\/p>\n

IL DISCORSO DELL\u2019AMBASCIATORE SALZANO:<\/p>\n
Good morning and thank you for inviting me today.<\/p>\n
Allow me first of all to congratulate on Sidra Medicine. Your hosting of this scientific workshop shows once more that Sidra stands out as a cutting-edge research and medical facility, not only in Qatar and in the region but more and more internationally.<\/p>\n
Science, Research and Medicine have no borders or nationality and shall always be a field of shared international action and responsibility.<\/p>\n
Having this in mind, allow me though to highlight that as Italian Ambassador I am particularly proud that today we have many Italian researchers and – more generally – that Italy has been a partner of Qatar in developing Sidra and its research activities.<\/p>\n
Italian researchers and doctors were part of the very first group of Sidra\u2019s staff and played a key role in setting up the new laboratories. The Italian company INSO contributed to equip the hospital by supplying sophisticated medical equipment.<\/p>\n
Ladies and Gentlemen,<\/p>\n
Diplomacy and Scientific Research might seem two worlds totally apart but I believe \u2013 on the contrary \u2013that they are bound by a shared ambitious goal: to imagine and anticipate new possible scenarios that are not yet seen.<\/p>\n
Researching every day to make possible new scenarios in medical treatments and patients\u2019 healing \u2013 as you are doing by expanding and improving applications of engineered immune cells for innovative cancer therapies – make you Ambassadors of humanity in your pursuit of knowledge.<\/p>\n
The results that will be presented and exchanged today, including from the excellent Italian research institutions here represented, are a valuable contribution to bring forward the fight against cancer.<\/p>\n
Ladies and Gentlemen<\/p>\n
Italy has a long tradition in scientific research. Dedication, excellence and \u2013 let me say \u2013 creativity, have shaped the \u201cMade-in-Italy\u201d research. We are proud of our researchers in the world, who are recognized for their competence and expertise.<\/p>\n
It is a honor and not only a duty for the Italian diplomacy and for all diplomats to further encourage and accompany the contacts and interaction that stem from events such as this conference.<\/p>\n
With this approach, the Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research, in partnership with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Health, organized last year for the first time the \u201cItalian Research Day in the World\u201d to be celebrated every year on the 15th of April, the day when Leonardo Da Vinci was born.<\/p>\n
In view of the second edition this year, our Embassy in Doha is planning one day initiative to bridge Italian researchers and Qatari institutions. The event will be promoted in the framework of the Memorandum of Understanding on Cooperation in the health sector, which was signed by the Italian and Qatari Ministers of Health during the State Visit to Italy of His Highness the Emir of the State of Qatar Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani last November. We hope that Sidra Medicine will be our partner in this initiative.<\/p>\n
Medical research concretely benefit people and contribute to improve the development and wellbeing of society: this is the common vision that Italy and Qatar share.<\/p>\n
I wish you all the best for a very fruitful workshop and exchange!<\/p>\n
