The international partners of the Replica Project and the CoEHAR researchers will meet virtually for the REPLICA HARMONIZATION MEETING YEAR 2 that will be held on tomorrow, November 4th, 6th and 12th.

All the patners are invited to join a three day session. The meeting is divided into mandatory session on November 4th (three hours) and November 6th (two hours). A Training Lab Session is scheduled for November 12th.

Due the circumstances, the meeting will be held online: it is a great opportunity for all the researchers and partners involved to discuss the updates of the project and bring up suggestions on the development of the research.

To coordinate the activities of this new project involving more than 20 university researchers and 30 international experts, there will be Giovanni Li Volti, full professor of biochemistry at the School of Medicine of the University of Catania and Rector delegate to research in the biomedical sector.

Replica is one of the most ambitious projects of the CoEHAR and it aims to replicate 10 international scientific studies to analyze the toxicity levels of conventional cigarette smoke and compare them with those deriving from the use of electronic cigarettes and products without combustion. For the first time, repetition will occur by analyzing only human cells.
