Villa Camozzi, restructured, surrounded by grounds of 60,000 sq mt, site of the "Center for Rare Diseases Aldo e Cele Daccò".

Center for Research on Transplantation situated on the grounds of Villa Camozzi. The Center was inaugurated in July, 2002.

The Center for Research on Transplantation is located within Villa Camozzi in Ranica, Bergamo, in a three story building connected to the "Center for Rare Diseases Aldo e Cele Daccò", founded by the Mario Negri Pharmacological Institute.

The Center for Research on Transplantation, managed in collaboration with the Mario Negri Institute, will allow researches from all over the world to work together on research projects.

The staff of the Center for Research on Transplantation is comprised of senior and junior researchers trained in the Mario Negri laboratories focussing on transplant immunology, creating non toxic immunosuppressive drugs and developing new gene therapy techniques to prevent acute rejection in organ transplantation. As projects develop, other researches will be invited to participate on selected projects or asked to provide technical skills non present in the Institute.

It is estimated that the Center will support 60 researchers when fully operational. Researchers have access to all the facilities within Villa Camozzi; the library, conference center, housing, cafeteria.

ART raised the funds used to build the Center for Research on Transplantation, inaugurated on July 2, 2002.
