Emanuele Buratti
scientific coordinator and head Molecular Pathology Lab ICGEB
Scientific Coordinator and Group Leader of the Molecular Pathology Lab at the International Centre for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology (ICGEB) in Trieste, as well as professor at the University of Trieste. Previously, he studied at the University of Trieste for a B.Sc. in Biology and a Ph.D. in Biochemistry. In 1995, he moved to ICGEB as a Staff Research Scientist. Dr. Buratti’s principal areas of expertise are the investigation of RNA binding proteins and RNA metabolism in neurodegeneration and metabolic diseases. On these subjects, he is the author of more than 160 research papers in peer-reviewed journals and of contributions to books. He is Associate Editor of Frontiers in Genetics, Academic Editor of PLOS ONE, and a member of the Editorial Board of the Journal of Biological Chemistry and of Molecular and Cellular Neurosciences.

Intelligence emerges across biological scales, from the adaptive behaviour of cells to the complex dynamics of neural circuits and whole organisms. We explore how “intelligence” manifests in health and disease, bringing together molecular pathology and neurodegenerative disease research. The panel examines how cells sense and respond to stress, how neural systems adapt or fail in ALS, and how this informs new therapeutic strategies. Connecting fundamental biology with clinical challenges and broader societal implications, the event aims to deepen public understanding and encourage dialogue.
