Scientific Committee
The Scientific Committee is an advisory body and a constant point of reference, serving to ensure continuity of direction and guarantee the scientific value both of the projects undertaken and of their results. The Committee is made up of experts and scientists who operate in accordance with international criteria and, when necessary, seek external opinions.
Vice-president Maria Majno is responsible for liaising between the Board and the Scientific Committee, while Ermellina Fedrizzi, specialist in child neurology, is the Board member appointed to follow the work of the Scientific Committee.
Taking into account the Foundation’s three areas of activity, the Scientific Committee is split into two sub-committees, “Care and Training” and “Research”, each made up of experts in the respective fields.
