Early life exposure and future health: the role of life course epidemiology and birth cohorts
Research into the origins of disease, known as “Developmental Origins of Health and Disease” (DOHaD), focuses on the link between early exposures and future health. This approach revealed that the environment and nutrition could influence fetal and infant development and affect future health, also through epigenetic modifications. Birth cohorts, such as Piccolipiù and MUBICOS, study individuals from birth allowing us to deepen the link between early experiences and future health, contributing to a healthier population through targeted prevention interventions.

Workshop. Dialogue between gender budgeting and medicine of differences: organizational changes and enforceability of changes
Gender budgeting is an important public governance tool that can be used to assess the impact of budget on gender equality. Gender budgeting can be applied to any type of budget system and to all levels of government (central and local). The workshop "Dialogue between gender budgeting and gender medicine: a response between organizational changes and the need for changes" organized by the Center for Gender Medicine (MeGe) and the Guarantee Committee (CUG) of the Istituto Superiore di Sanità (National Institute of Health in Italy) was an opportunity to analyze the correlation between the right to gender health and the effectiveness of this right subordinated to the financial factor.
