The Pezcoller Foundation-SIC-Andrea and Libi Lorini Foundation Felowship
Established in 2026 through a partnership with the Andrea and Libi Lorini Foundation of Milan, this two-year fellowship (€30,000/year) was created to support and reward the career paths of outstanding cancer researchers.
The fellowship is open to young researchers who have completed a Master’s degree, a Specialization or a Ph.D. at a university in Milan.
The winner of this fellowship is Giancarla Bernardo from the Istituto Nazionale Tumori di Milano, with a project will investigate how specific commensal bacteria within melanoma lesions impact the immune response, with the ultimate goal of predicting and preventing tumor recurrence.

A donation to research is a gift to the future of every single one of us.
Joining forces across institutions to support the best minds means driving science forward and building, together, concrete answers for everyone’s health.
To the Andrea and Libi Lorini Foundation goes our deepest gratitude for this valuable collaboration.
