The Fondazione Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia - IIT - was founded with the objective of promot- ing the country’s technological development and further education in science and technology. IIT’s scientific program has a strong multidisci- plinary character, merging expertise from differ- ent platforms from neuroscience to drug discov- ery, from nanotechnologies to computation.

Gene Tools manufactures Morpholino oligos for blocking translation, modifying splicing or inhibit- ing miRNA activity. Morpholinos are used in cell cultures, embryos or, as Vivo-Morpholinos, in adult animals. Morpholinos are effective, specific, stable and non-toxic. Backed by Ph.D.-level cus- tomer support, Gene Tools designs and synthesizes Morpholinos and offers cytosolic delivery options. NEW GenScript USA, Inc. 119 GenScript is the world’s leading biology CRO. The service portfolio includes custom gene syn- thesis and cloning, peptide synthesis, protein expression, antibody production, protein engi- neering, in vitro and in vivo pharmacology and discovery biology studies.
