Il professor Silvio Brusaferro è da oggi il nuovo commissario per l’esercizio delle funzioni del presidente dell’Istituto Superiore di Sanità.
Professore Ordinario di Igiene e Medicina Preventiva e Direttore del Dipartimento Area Medica dell’Università degli Studi di Udine, Brusaferro, nato a Udine l’8 aprile 1960, è anche direttore SOC accreditamento, gestione del rischio clinico e valutazione delle performance dell’Azienda Sanitaria Universitaria Integrata di Udine.
La nomina segue le dimissioni del presidente Walter Ricciardi che ha lasciato l’incarico dal 1° gennaio scorso. E’ quanto si legge in una nota del Ministero della Salute.
Il commissario “assicurerà l’operatività in vista della nomina del presidente che sarà effettuata sulla base dei curriculum che arriveranno nelle prossime settimane, come previsto dal regolamento dell’Istituto Superiore di Sanità”.
Ricciardi dopo le dimissioni ha rilasciato un’intervista piuttosto polemica nei confronti della maggioranza di governo: “L’esecutivo ha posizioni anti scientifiche”, ha detto negli scorsi giorni al Corriere della Sera.
