Mission

The INES (INstitute of Epigenetics for Smiles) mission is to revolutionize the promotion of human health and well-being from a global (environmental and social) sustainability perspective by pioneering innovative research at the intersection of exposome and epigenetics with a focus on positive life experience. Rooted in scientific rigor and visionary thinking, our goal is to disentangle the intricate molecular mechanisms that underlie the transformative power of positive influences on the human epigenome adaptation and translate them to public health and precision prevention initiatives as well as patentable knowledge, following major social/ethical drivers.

Through cutting-edge research, interdisciplinary collaboration, and a commitment to the concept of comprehensive well-being, INES strives to define the pathways by which positivity and resilience are imprinted at the molecular level, shaping individual health trajectories, and enhancing overall quality of life.

By deciphering the epigenetic codes of happiness, vitality, and flourishing as the bases of health homeostasis, we aspire to catalyze a paradigm shift in health research and empower individuals to proactively embrace positive life experiences for a healthier future.
