On the occasion of the sporting event that will involve the whole city on 1 March, the University of Bologna is promoting the 5 km non–competitive run, offering participants the opportunity to support the University’s research activities. To mark the event, the University will also be present for three days in Piazza del Nettuno with a stand where Unibo researchers will engage directly with the wider community
