The data collection

This second phase concerns the gathering of statistical data and their representation through static and dynamic infographics, based on which we have to write an article. There is a wealth of data related to laryngeal tumors; we are conducting a local investigation in addition to the regional, national, and European data collected with the help of ISTAT CDE and Eurostat. This research is also self-educational; we realize that the numbers of these tumors are indeed high, and if they are, it's because habits start to go wrong from a young age. Did you know that the major causes of laryngeal tumors are three?

1. High tobacco consumption, 

2.high alcohol consumption,  

3.papillomavirus. 

While the latter can be prevented with the correct use of condoms and thanks to a vaccine administered to girls and boys of our age, for smoking and alcohol, it depends on each of us!

Fight for Health Team...we introduce ourselves

Welcome to our adventure at the School of OpenCohesion (ASOC),

we are the students of classes 3^A and 4^A at IIS G DE GRUTTOLA.

Our journey unfolds through captivating research and civic monitoring activities, unraveling the complexities of European and national public funding.

In this immersive experience, we not only cultivate digital, statistical, and civic education skills but also embrace the art of storytelling through journalistic techniques. We, the storytellers, passionately explore the intricacies of public policies, particularly the enigma of cohesion policies, with a shared sense of purpose and enthusiasm.

We are analyzing an OpenCoesione project: DETERMINATION OF A SIGNATURE OF CIRCULATING MIRNAS WITH INNOVATIVE NANOSENSORS FOR THE DIAGNOSIS AND PROGNOSIS OF LARYNGEAL TUMORS.

Biogem (Biologia e Genetica Molecolare) is a cutting-edge research company at the forefront of scientific exploration. Within its dynamic realm, several laboratories are dedicated to diverse fields such as Genetics, Epigenetics, Stem Cells and Tissue Regeneration, Nephrology, Molecular Oncology, and Genes and Environment for the study of pathologies induced by environmental pollutants.

In the Molecular Oncology laboratory, a beacon of innovation shines bright. Here, something truly ingenious has been conceived—a breakthrough that marks a turning point in the early diagnosis of Laryngeal Cancer. Biogem's visionary work in this realm is poised to redefine the landscape of cancer diagnostics, particularly in the realm of laryngeal health.

this is the amount allocated for this project...

We will keep you updated periodically on our visits to Biogem, including interviews, as well as share information about various research findings and curiosities related to laryngeal tumors...

see you soon then!
