Gathered at the University of Bologna, some of the world’s leading scholars and experts in artificial intelligence have drawn up a Manifesto for a cohesive institution grounded in human capital, interdisciplinary collaboration and a strong theoretical foundation, governed with transparency and independence
Coordinated by the University of Bologna, the project brings together 35 partners from 11 countries to develop interdisciplinary training pathways in Virtual Worlds
As a consequence of climate change, some species will only be able to survive at the highest elevations, while many others – surprisingly – will shift downslope in search of areas with greater precipitation
EU institutional representatives, researchers and international stakeholders will be at the Department of Agricultural and Food Sciences (DISTAL) to discuss about climate-change challenges. The meeting is arranged by DG CLIMA and CINEA
Thanks to the first computerised tomography scanner in Italy used exclusively for research, the three fossil specimens were analysed to explore their internal and external morphology and to investigate their original contents and shell structure
Financed by the INGV (National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology) and co-coordinated by the University of Bologna and INGV, SAKURA research project aims to study closely the part of the Earth’s mantle lying between 80 and 200 kilometres under the globe’s surface. The focus is on the Mediterranean area with a particular attention to both the Phlegraean Fields and Ischia, and the Adriatic Sea
Developed by Euclid Consortium, it includes 3.4 billion galaxies, each described by more than 400 physical properties, including luminosity, position, velocity and shape. Its purpose is to help the scientists interpret the Euclid telescope’s observations and study the origin of the “cosmic web” and the nature of dark energy and dark matter
The Allalobad geothermal field is a “Martian analogue”: its extreme conditions resemble those that might have existed billions of years ago on the surface of Mars. In this extraordinary and inhospitable place, a research team led by the University of Bologna is working to understand how and where to look for traces of extraterrestrial life
At the latest edition of the world championship for solar vehicles, the Onda Solare team took third place in the Cruiser Class and also received the CSIRO Innovation Award for its suspension system
The first symptoms of this rare inherited metabolic disease often appear in the gut: a joint study between the University of Bologna and APC Microbiome Ireland investigated how the accumulation of a particular metabolite, called lyso-Gb3, contributes to their development
An international study coordinated by the University of Bologna has developed a decalogue to explore the potential of AI in creative processes, its opportunities and risks, and to outline possible future scenarios
