- 13:55Immunologia regenerativa: la sfida contro l'invecchiamento | Ermelinda Porpiglia | TEDxCataniaViviamo più a lungo che mai, ma vivere a lungo non significa necessariamente vivere bene. Con l’età, i nostri tessuti si riparano più lentamente, le funzioni del corpo si riducono e la qualità della vita può peggiorare. La mia ricerca si concentra su un obiettivo ambizioso: migliorare l’healthspan — cioè il numero di anni in cui restiamo in buona salute — tramite la medicina rigenerativa. In particolare, studiamo come rigenerare i tessuti danneggiati sfruttando una risorsa che abbiamo già dentro di noi: il sistema immunitario. Siamo abituati a pensare al sistema immunitario come a un guerriero che ci protegge da virus e batteri. Ma c’è un lato meno conosciuto: quello del sistema immunitario come “alleato della rigenerazione”, che aiuta il nostro corpo a crescere e guarire. Nel mio laboratorio all’ Universita’ di Aarhus vogliamo capire meglio come le cellule immunitarie supportino le cellule staminali, che hanno il compito di rigenerare i tessuti. Ci chiediamo se questo ruolo di “alleato” del sistema immunitario si perde con l’età. E se sì, possiamo riattivarlo? Per trovare nuove risposte, utilizziamo tecnologie all’avanguardia che ci permettono di osservare, una cellula alla volta, le interazioni tra le cellule staminali e le cellule del sistema immunitario all’interno dei tessuti. Il nostro obiettivo è di studiare nel dettaglio le “nicchie rigenerative”, cioè i micro-ambienti specializzati dove le cellule staminali lavorano insieme alle cellule immunitarie per riparare il corpo. E vogliamo capire se, invecchiando, queste nicchie si deteriorano. Questa ricerca puo’ aiutarci a sviluppare nuove strategie per potenziare la capacità del corpo di guarire, anche in età avanzata. In altre parole: stimolare il nostro sistema immunitario per vivere non solo più a lungo, ma meglio. La Dott.ssa Ermelinda Porpiglia è Professore Associato all’Università di Aarhus, in Danimarca, dove guida un laboratorio che studia come l’invecchiamento influenzi la rigenerazione muscolare. Durante il suo post-doc alla Stanford University ha introdotto l’uso della citometria di massa a singola cellula (CyTOF) nello studio del muscolo scheletrico, identificando sottotipi rari di cellule staminali legati all’età. Il suo lavoro impiega tecnologie all’avanguardia per esplorare l’interazione tra cellule staminali e sistema immunitario, con l’obiettivo di sviluppare terapie che migliorino la riparazione muscolare. Laureata a Bologna e con un dottorato negli Stati Uniti, ha pubblicato su riviste di rilievo come Nature Medicine e Cell Stem Cell ed è Direttrice della Danish Society for Women in Science.

- 13:41Restoring coral reefs to save the ocean | Christina Egger | TEDxPraça Gil EanesEurope’s deep seas harbor some of the planet’s most stunning coral ecosystems—cold-water coral gardens that flourish in the dark and chilly depths. But while tropical coral reefs have long been the focus of global conservation, Europe’s corals have remained largely in the shadows. Until now.In this inspiring TEDx Talk, learn how marine scientists are using groundbreaking coral restoration techniques like breeding and seeding baby corals to revive these vital but threatened ecosystems. Adapted from proven tropical reef methods, this work marks a turning point in ocean conservation in Europe.Cold-water corals may be out of sight, but they’re no longer out of mind. Discover why protecting them matters for biodiversity, for climate resilience, and for the future of our oceans. Christina Egger is a marine scientist passionate about protecting the ocean’s most overlooked ecosystems. She earned her PhD at the Centre of Marine Sciences in Portugal, where she focused on developing pioneering methods to reproduce and grow threatened native coral species. Her research laid the foundation for restoring Europe’s cold-water coral gardens, biodiversity hotspots hidden beneath the surface.Now, Christina is working to take these efforts further, scaling up coral restoration techniques and bringing them into real-world conservation initiatives. Her mission: to help Europe’s forgotten reefs recover and thrive in the face of growing environmental threats.

- 11:28Why Art Is Essential to Human Growth | Guilherme Félix | TEDxPraça Gil EanesCan art really change a life? Guilherme Félix thinks so—and he’s here to prove it. In this heartfelt TEDx talk, Guilherme reveals how creative expression, especially in early life, plays a key role in developing emotional intelligence, resilience, and purpose. Drawing on stories from classrooms, community centres, and theatre stages, he shows how the arts aren’t a luxury—they’re a necessity for a thriving society. Whether you’re a parent, teacher, or simply someone who left your creativity behind, this is an inspiring call to reawaken your artistic self. Guilherme Félix discovered theatre at an early age—thanks, in part, to his complete lack of talent for maths. What began as a creative escape quickly became a calling. In 2018, he moved to Lisbon to study and train under artists he had long admired. Today, alongside his work as an actor, Guilherme also teaches theatre to young people. Through this role, he has witnessed first-hand the power of the arts in education and personal development. His work is rooted in the belief that creativity is not a luxury, but a tool for growth, confidence, and connection.
