From scientific research of high level to concrete assistance for the benefit of the patients: the new headquarters of the Bioimmagini Institute and complex biological systems of the CNR was inaugurated in Catanzaro, the result of the cessation with the Calabria Region, the Materomini University Hospital. The president of the Calabria Region were cutting the ribbon, Roberto Occhiutothe President of the National Research Council, Maria Chiara Carrozzathe general manager of the CNR Giuseppe Culti and the extraordinary commissioner of the Dulbecco University Hospital-University, Simona Carbone.
The structure was named after Giuseppe Profitiprofessor and manager of Health, creator and main promoter of the project. The teacher and manager of Health, Catanzaro of origin, who disappeared in the summer of 2023, commissioner of Company Zero, a plaque was dedicated to the entrance discovered in the presence of the mother and brother. The Institute of Bioimmagini and biological systems, hyper -technological reality in the service of the territory, It has modern workshops of genetics, neurology, neuroscience, and has a 3 Tesla magnetic resonance imaging for the study of neurological pathologies (stroke, multiple sclerosis, headaches, etc.) both in the scientific research and in the diagnostic sphere. “Today is an important moment – said President Occhiuto, commissioner ad acta for healthcare in Calabria – above all because there is one of the most performing resonances, which was previously used only for research purposes and is now returned to the Calabrians And to the city of Catanzaro also for assistance purposes. This structure born from an intuition of Pino Profiti will be put to the service of patients and to improve the health offer and reduce waiting lists in an important city such as the regional capital “.
“The collaboration and synergy with the Dulbecco company is very important – said the president of the CNR Carrozza – to give a prospect of clinical assistance but also of research and therefore it is a unite the forces between the clinic and scientific research in a Very complex field such as that of neurorying. Here the patients will be given the opportunity to have a qualified service to monitor recovery after events that can then affect the quality of life “. For the Extraordinary Commissioner Carbone “is completed by an important goal towards users”.
The transfer of the CNR-IBSBC from the Magna Graecia University to the former VILLA BIANCA garrison, which were inaugurated today, came following a Convention stipulated in September 2023 between the CNR and the Calabria Region, which ordered its funding with the Regional Decree of Health Building Sector n.1270 aimed at adapting the premises of the former Bianca Villa in the Materomini district of Catanzaro.
New neurogenetics workshops already present, new neuroryable laboratories focused on new digital technologies and artificial intelligence to create scientific advances in the field of care and prognosis of neurological diseases. “The use of the former Villa Bianca – was explained during the presentation of the new premises – constitutes a first, fundamental, piece for the redevelopment of the entire structure, in which the concentration of the freelance activity of the Hospital – University ‘Renato Dulbeccacca, also contributing to the relaunch of a strategic area of the city of Catanzaro “.

The laboratory of neuroscience and artificial intention with neuro-sensory gloves for the kinematic evaluation of the movement capable of discovering motor deficits in the preclinical phase of dementia, a system for the recognition of facial emotions, a system of sensory enhancement, a system As a real emotional rehabilitation treatment through augmented reality viewer.
