In line with this perspective, the constant commitment of the Department in the research, experimentation and implementation of innovative approaches to health promotion and disease prevention throughout the course of life, in living and working environments.
Mission
All the members of DiSaP are engaged in a synergistic effort of research, training and assistance that is developed at a local, national and international level, and which, starting from the study of the bio-morphological and molecular mechanisms of pathological phenomena, allows the elaboration of new models of health service. Making use of new technologies, these models are integrated with the management of medical, surgical and rehabilitative diagnosis and therapy activities in an interdisciplinary and social conception of Public Health.
Values
Consultation is the core value of the Department's institutional activities, and extends with the creation of extensive collaborations with other University Departments of the University, with regional, national, European and international research and training bodies, both public and private, and with all the entrepreneurial realities interested in promoting excellence in the field of national and international scientific research, territorial and hospital health, and industrial production and services. Teamwork, integrity and respect characterize the department, which is also committed to guaranteeing gender equality and respect for diversity, in a collective effort for inclusiveness that enhances innovation and creativity for health and to improve system sustainability.
