Today at the Museum of Science and Technology in Milan, Il Tempo della Salute, the event organized by Corriere della Sera dedicated to health in all its forms, kicks off and will last until Sunday. We will talk with dozens of top-level experts about new therapies and research prospects for the main pathologies, prevention, well-being, psychology, new technologies applied to medicine, the evolution of the relationship between doctor and patient but also about the one between parents and children (GO TO THE FULL PROGRAM). We will then discuss the environment, whose health is reflected in ours, as will be explained in an exhibition curated by UNESCO, dedicated to everyone but in particular to children, who will be able to experience first-hand the effects of climate change. In total only 35 meetings are planned, with dozens of doctors and scientists but also with the participation of personalities from the world of entertainment, sport, the cultural scene and journalism.
All meetings will be free to enter and will also be streamed on breaking latest news. Those who want to intervene in person will also have the opportunity to take care of their health directly (and free of charge) because various opportunities will be made available to monitor it, thanks to the collaboration of scientific societies, associations and sponsors of the event: thanks to Anmco (National Association of Doctors hospital cardiologists) it will be possible to undergo an electrocardiogram and some blood tests, the San Donato Group will allow blood sugar control, the ophthalmologists of the Lions of Milan will measure the eye pressure and for those who want to donate blood, in the Avis station present, there are The usual screening tests will be carried out to verify suitability for donation.
Wellbeing will also be concretely on stage with numerous courses organized by McFit (yoga, pilates, posture, core training) and Studio Personally (breathing and twists). This year too, the usual appointments will be renewed with cardiopulmonary resuscitation lessons organized by the Italian Resuscitation Council and the always popular vegetable cutting course by nutritionist Stefano Erzegovesi. Finally, an absolute novelty, at Il Tempo della Salute a veterinarian, thanks to the support of Boehringer Ingelheim, will teach us how to recognize parasites that are annoying for our animal friends, but which can also represent a problem for us if transmitted. Information and booking instructions can be found on www.breaking latest news/salute/tempo-della-salute. All in the spirit of the key word chosen for this year’s edition of Il Tempo della Salute, that of understanding.
