The new solar car, presented at the Ferrari Museum in Maranello, has 5 square metres of photovoltaic panels on its roof and two in-wheel electric motors that allow it to reach a speed of 120 kilometres per hour
The Horizon Europe ELSA project will use machine learning algorithms to analyse the gigantic archive of images and spectra produced by the European Space Agency (ESA) mission, searching for valuable details hidden among the faintest and rarest galaxies
DIGI-B-WELL: a European project to promote the digital well-being of SMEs, public institutions and academia was launched at the kick-off meeting in Rijeka (Croatia). Nine partners, including the University of Bologna, join forces to create a sustainable and future-oriented working environment
Research involving the University of Bologna, found that graphene has properties that can control and modulate the activities of astrocytes, a type of brain cell. The work, published in Nature Nanotechnology, has the potential to have positive implications for the study of brain diseases such as epilepsy and stroke
The University of Bologna has approved the document designed to align its research evaluation practices with the principles outlined in the Agreement on Reforming Research Assessment
The University of Bologna is offering 145 doctoral scholarships in a wide range of fields, including artificial intelligence, sustainable energy, inequality reduction, health, education and training, digitisation, preservation of cultural heritage and Industry 4.0: an opportunity to learn how to conduct original and independent research in close contact with major companies
Aluminum alloys produced through additive manufacturing, new carbon fiber-based structures, renewable solutions for solar-powered cars, and the reuse of exhausted vegetable oils in the automotive industry. These are some of the themes that University of Bologna researchers will focus on as part of the PNRR initiative on "Innovative Materials & Lightweighting" from the National Centre for Sustainable Mobility
An Italian research team has discovered for the first time that some species of marine polychaete worms in the Ross Sea are able to withstand Antarctic temperatures thanks to specific antifreeze proteins produced by symbiotic microorganisms living in their tissues
The aim of R-PODID, a new research project coordinated by the University of Bologna and implemented within the Chips Joint Undertaking is to innovate fault prediction technologies and thereby lead the way to a future in which electric drives and power devices can operate with greater efficiency, reliability and safety
Following the successes of previous years, the catamaran Futura will once again take center stage at the international Monaco Energy Boat Challenge, which focuses on innovation and sustainability. This year, the boat features a new electric outboard motor with counter-rotating propellers, marking another leap in energy efficiency

The plant, which originated in South America and which has now disappeared from our country, arrived in Italy at the end of the 16th Century, decades earlier than previously thought: a discovery made possible thanks to the heritage of Renaissance herbaria kept by the University of Bologna
A study led by scientists at the University of Bologna has uncovered new insights into how the brain regulates automatic imitation - a behaviour that underlies many complex social interactions. The findings could lead to therapeutic applications for patients with neurological impairments and social dysfunction
Faculty and technical administrative staff embarked on an institutional visit to the St. Francis University College of Health and Allied Sciences in Ifakara, a Tanzanian city that has become a research hub focused on healthcare. The visit aimed to strengthen relationships, exchange programmes, and collaborate on the launch of a new professional master's programme in Medicine and Surgery, fostering international cooperation
