3 Beauty is subjective, health less so. According to the World Health Organization, health is a state of complete physical and psychic well being. Clearly, this is an ideal and not easily reachable state for many humans. Pathologic phenotypes as Colorectal Cancer, Diabetes Mellitus, Alzheimer s Disease, Infertility are among the major chapters of contemporary western Medicine: they represent a heavy burden and a critical challenge for Public Health Systems. Other diseases, such as Tourette Syndrome, are still poorly characterized at the biomolecular level. Understanding the molecular bases of these and other medically important phenotypes also at the level of cell pathways and networks is of critical relevance for a rational approach to successful therapy and prevention. The 2011 Course (the sixth) of the International School of Advanced Molecular and Systems BioMedicine will focus on these themes and new promising discoveries (as exchange of microvesicles and exosomes with their molecular cargo, as micrornas and LncRNAs, among similar or different cells), and try to contribute to the evolution of concepts, experimental strategies, therapeutic approaches, including those made possible by Stem Cells and Regenerative Medicine.

8 Course Venue The School will be held in Catania, set between the Ionian Sea and the neighbouring Mount Etna, tallest active volcano in Europe. According to the myth, Hephaestus, the greek god of metallurgy, fire and volcanoes together with the Cyclops, had his forge where Zeus thunderbolt were made inside of the Etna. Credits After the final examination, the School will assign up to 2 CFU for participation to the Course. The electronic application form for registration to the School is available at biomedschool@bgbunict.it
