In the province of Lecce (southern Italy), a higher incidence of lung cancer (LC) among men compared to regional and national data was reported. In a sub-area in the center of the province (cluster area), the incidence and mortality for LC was even higher. PROTOS is a case-control study aimed at investigating possible risk factors for LC in the province area.

In the last decade, several laboratory-scale experiments have shown the use of nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) to be effective in reducing metal(loid) availability in polluted soils. The present study evaluates the capacity of nZVI for reducing the availability of As and Hg in brownfield soils at a pilot scale, and monitors the stability of the immobilization of these contaminants over a 32 month period. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to apply nZVI to metal(loid)-polluted soils under field conditions.

In case of Homo sapiens, the number of sequenced genomes will approach hundreds of thousands in the next few years. Simply scaling up established bioinformatics pipelines will not be sufficient for leveraging the full potential of such rich genomic data sets.
