BIO/13
Identification and study of
novel genes involved in
Restless Legs Syndrome
The aim is to search for new genes/mutations
involved in RLS starting from the study of a large
Italian family with 19 affected individuals. The
identified mutations will be functionally
characterized by creating in vitro models
Experience in molecular/cellular
biology and a PhD related to the
project matter (Biology, Molecular
Medicine, Biochemistry or similar) are

A combination of anti-inflammatory human genes
will be over-expressed in in vitro models (porcine
