Today I seem to be more 'the other day, a guinea pig for economic purposes.
Strange approach by the Foundation to obtain new financing (500,000 €) is continuously publish articles on the rhymes. Funny expression "healthy", "elixir of long life ..", "genetic isolation", "valley of health."
Honestly, even now, I feel sick most 'of the atria .. that's all.

GALLIO.Nei laboratories of the foundation "Bird" the DNA of 500 residents The Elixir of Bau
to the protein of "all healthy"
After the step of drawdowns Blood, 500 000 € now hunting for research on stroke and diabetes
The name is already beautiful wrote: protein Bau. The one that could be printed on any box of medicine, perhaps in a few years. Everything about the mountain people who lived for centuries in a closed valley. Those of high cholesterol and stroke, but also diabetes and Alzheimer's. But the distance that separates theory from practice in genetics laboratories of the "Bird Foundation, is measured in euro. To cope with the rebus Bau, are at least 500 000 euro, the cost of scientific research which would then enable you to create a protein that marketing can become the elixir some ills. All on genetic isolates, all due to a more resistant strain of the granite, was born and raised by the parties of Stoccareddo and Sasso, districts of Gaul and Asiago.
The story is well known, since 2005 the foundation Baschirotto researchers studying the DNA of Bau through periodic blood tests. Millions of data to meet to solve a puzzle: to understand why the land of "all healthy" cases of hypertension, diabetes, ipocolesterolomia, senile dementia and Alzheimer's disease but also occur with less frequency. And why stroke and heart attack are "zero impact" despite diet and lifestyle make it the most vulnerable Bau. But this community that brings the same surname has developed protective genes can make them immune to certain diseases. There, to instill Valsugana between the slopes of the lands and grazing cows. The research is now at a turning point. In the laboratories of the "Bird Foundation in Costozza Berici in the hearts of a few feet from where Galileo Galilei lived in 1593, over 500 stored blood samples of Bau. In August, we analyzed the latest in a lineage that may have originated four centuries ago. So now the family tree created by a single parent (perhaps a pastor) is in the hands of two directors of the project Bau: Dolcetta Diego, neurologist and Uros Hladnik physician specializing in genetics.
"The goal, the dream - explains Anna Baschirotto who initiated the research on genetic isolates - is to follow the example of Limone sul Garda, where researchers have isolated a protein that protects against cardiovascular problems (Apo-A1 Milano), after studying the DNA of population of the lake. " But our
Bau have something extra that makes them unique among the world. The factor "homonymy", all together Bau, born and raised in the valley of health.
