The Minister of Health, Giulia Cricket, proposed to Prime Minister Conte the new heads of the Istituto Superiore di Sanità, the main technical-scientific body of the Ministry of Health. It's Silvio Brusaferro, former commissioner and ordinary of Hygiene in Udine, the new president, while the direction will go to Andrea petioles, head of ministerial inspectors and coming from Health Planning.
Grillo wished both "to inaugurate a new season of protagonism of the ISS". Brusaferro thanks "for the trust" and the experience of recent months and "for the great attention shown to the Institute by appointing Andrea Piccioli as General Manager, a high-profile professional with vast experience who I am sure will make a significant contribution to the management and in the enhancement of the Institute's activities”.
“I'm really happy – says Grillo – to be able to send President Conte my nomination proposal for the presidency of the ISS. I have chosen to continue the work started in January by Professor Silvio Brusaferro, as Commissioner of the Institute. His long experience in the public health of this country and the very high value of his scientific competence will be a guarantee of effectiveness, efficiency and absolute independence for the government of our most important scientific body.
The new director general of the Institute will be Andrea Piccioli, a specialist in orthopedics and traumatology, former head of inspectors at the Ministry of Health”.
